>>109407774This general reminds me of syscallanon, I wonder where he is
>>109407774I will buy a fairphone today broskisthoughts?
For me, it's the NoPhone>lightweight>botnet free>cheap>free as in freedom
>>109408751Where do you live? How do you get employment? What does your family think?
>>109408623I miss the Syscall of the Week threads.
>>109408763NTA but I also don't have a smartphone.>Where do you live?East Coast US> How do you get employment?I've had three jobs since I got rid of my phone, two of them required phone calls/texting and I used my cheogram account for that.>What does your family think?They absolutely hate it and have bought me two phones so far which I've given back to them.
how do i pass play integrity so my phone can stop being useless, everything online is some jeeted shit from mediafire
my bank requires that I use either google or apple (I don't think their app will work on anything else), what do?
>>109413158also it is only downloadable from google or apple store both of which require an account and it makes me feel so cucked and frustrated it's unreal
>>109413170aurora store is a foss google play frontend so you can download the app and if the app relies on google play services then there's microg which is a free gms implementation that makes the apps work and minimizes the data sent to google and if app relies on play protect/safetynet then you're out of luck.
>>109413317both don't require google account to work.
>>109413158>what do?Don't use the app and switch banks if that prevents you from getting to your account.
>>109407774Really dark times where this is not the only smartphone thread on this site, infact how rare it is in comparison to the botnet shilling>>109408763NTA EUSSR, use a prepaid card on a old Nokia thats always turned off (or VOIP). Fuck my retarded normalfag family and this shit unlivable world they helped create>>109413158Switch, also to help not promote them turn to shit too, use them as little as possible, only use card to take out cash, dont even use the website, if you're not against all this shit they'll just think you're a boomer who will come around to the phone shit with time. Thats the conclusion I came to, regret supporting Android in the early days when it was kinda free and open and cool so much just to have it turn into this, the scam works, most people get sucked in and stay no matter how much bs they do, don't be one of them.
>>109407774There are no Foss smartphones, or computers for that matter. There are just freetards that pretend a computer is Foss when their OS doesn't load any proprietary software. But if that exact same blob is preloaded by a hardware component it's apparently a non issue because it's "part of the hardware". Its a club of hypocrites who lie and deceive the weak and dumb.

>>109414501what did he mean by this
>>109407774i'm scared to upgrade my postmarketos phone, they keep breaking shit...last time i've upgraded, pulsemixer/pactl started taking ~10 seconds, delaying the sxmo menus, also keys in wvkbd now stick for some reason.before that things actually worked quite well.now they want to introduce even more changes that will break shit, like pipewire, systemd, immutable system, uboot...this is the curse of pretty much every linux distro there is, kernel is working really hard to never break userspace, which doesn't really matter, because userspace keeps willingly breaking itself every so often anyways.
