I am a guy from southern germany. I like scouting, trains and computers. Politically, I would consider myself as a democratic socialist.
(For anyone wondering, yes this is from the same guy, as [email protected])

9·7 天前I’d probably recommend something with GrapheneOS as it’s pretty easy to install and use. I personally use it as well and never had any issues with it. You might want to look if your Banking apps work, but other than that, you can pretty much install most major apps through Aurora (like WhatsApp, Signal etc.)
If you want to go fully open, you could also try buying a Fairphone 4 and installing PostmarketOS on it, as I see PostmarketOS as the long-term ideal future OS for phones, because it frees us from the shackles of phone update cycles and gives the user full control over their OS (including changing the desktop environment).
But if you want to use PostmarketOS you have to be willing to tinker and not everything will work perfectly. Especially the camera will not be perfectly supported, even on the well supported Fairphone 4, your pictures will look worse than the ones you could take on Android, because there aren’t good drivers and post processing yet. But it can be really cool if you are an enthusiast.

5·7 天前That’s fucking based! Finally, some public money for stuff that so much of the public also relies on.
I hope this becomes a trend, because there is some huge potential when governments start to fund FOSS
Steve Bannon says this? Sorry for being cynical, but I don’t by anything that Trump’s goons say.
What most people need to understand is that a lot of politicians don’t believe in anything, except serving the interests of their donors.
Just like they didn’t do anything about the “deep state” or the prices of eggs, they will never even consider doing anything that threatens Nvidia or OpenAI.
It’s nice that the political discourse is shifting, but don’t expect anyone who is currently in power to help you in this fight
Oh my god, who could have expected that??
