Don't you have to download episodes to your server first in ABS? That makes it useless for me as a podcast app.

Looks and sounds very promising! I've been looking for a self-hosted podcast server that I can use to sync podcasts and progress between multiple devices. Nextcloud Gpodder sync is already great, but there does not seem to be any iOS app that supports it. So I'm really looking forward to seeing more of your project!

Otherwise, as others have noted, there are apparently ways of doing what you want, but it is discouraged for good reasons.
I would like to have that info for my own photos, but I don't have location services on unless I need them anyway, so it would be pointless.
Not necessarily a satisfactory solution for you, but the usual way to handle that is just using a text editor in the shell with sudo, like nano or vim. It's pretty fast and easy once you get used to it. I don't know if there are any good graphical ways of doing it.
It is rare that you would want to run an entire GUI program as root, and if it is needed, the program should prompt you for it. Do you have a specific use case where you need to do that regularly?
The difference being that on wikipedia you could use the sources on there while AI makes those up as well
I recommend just using the flatpak
Unless you are dangerously close to a non-EU country and can't reliably prevent your phone from connecting to its networks
What about CalyxOS's firewall? What puts GrapheneOS apart?
