I’ve never had even a single Facebook account, to explain why it’s because the UK police once tried to stitch me up and they kept demanding my Facebook account (presumably to fish) I never had one but they would not let that go.

Once I got representation that line of questioning ended but holy hell did they seem to put a lot of emphasis on my non existent Facebook account.

For the curious I was raided due to an anonymous phone (to the mayor’s office) call that claimed I was going to shoot up my workplace or something ridiculous.

My belief is the police wanted to impress the mayor so they just wouldn’t let it go despite being nonsense until I paid representation to make them behave.

I use signal but I always kind of wanted to switch people to threema but in reality it’s hard enough getting them to install signal.

Some group who hates Microsoft should just start doing their own unofficial security updates for 10 and slowly turn it into a Linux distro

Only the android client, just use the fork I think he updated before the official one did anyway. Still it’s another case of Google constantly changing the rules on developers for no reason.

I think this used to be possible with tasker, ironically though probably not anymore before of all Google’s restrictions on Android. (maybe if you have root)

Give it another 6 months and it’ll be “Skynet for xbox” or something similarly worse.

I actually had that with the first ecig I ever bought with the draw activation (looked like a cig but blue light, itactivated in my pocket and I needed to throw it sharpish).

Yeah agreed nothing should be disposable with a lithium battery. I’ve just the feeling a lot of vapes are just designed to die as fast as possible even when it comes to reusable stuff .

To be fair the supposedly reusable pod kits only lasted me about a month or maybe two before whatever sensor that activates it when you draw breaks (what’s wrong with buttons) .

That said all these disposables should at the very least be rechargeable it’s truly stupid to buy something with a single charge I bet half of these are sold at about 60 percent or so battery and who will know.

Reason I don’t use Freetube is it will never show age restricted videos because it doesn’t sign into YouTube your also limited to a max of 1080.

I used the Mozilla account sync thing that’s built in but it didn’t restore the extensions.

bookmarks and passwords seem to have copied over to the DivestOS one though.

Drives probably rusted away to nothing by now, even if he miraculously could find it the odds of getting anything from it are probably less than him winning the lottery.

I’ve a feeling we’re ry going to regret all this anti Chinese nonsense in the future, I think Google etc have already sealed their ultimate fates.

The Huawei thing might well go down as one of the worst mistakes in history.

For anyone wondering I’m UK not Chinese completely white from Belfast.

I’ll take your word for it but between all the nonsense Google and Mozilla have pulled I’m not sure where to place my belief.

I’m sticking to thorium for now because it’s fast and does what I want in a browser

Kinda agree it should have an update built in, I’m using Chris Titas/Titus update script to update it.

Which to be honest doesn’t seem to update it much.

I’m mostly basing my use on it being quite fast and the dev cursing out Google and swearing to keep Ublock.

First I’ve heard of it honestly, I’m in the weird position I don’t really trust Google or Mozilla so all I’m using is forks.

If those go ad crazy I’m kinda screwed.

I’m being downvoted heavily on Reddit for suggesting thorium instead of Chrome.

My guess is bots as thorium is way faster and the dev hates the thought of a chromium browser without Adblock.

Moronically I think the Reddit hive mind is following that opinion and I may have to delete the comment or face site wide blacklisting which is what usually happens.

User error - you are all looking at it wrong

I just close the page usually if I see one of these ones, I don’t have the patience to click all the boxes and then it just sends you a different one.

Wasn’t he also behind the redline icon pack (which I do actually like) but yeah subscription for something you can easily find your own images or even just ask an AI to make.

Subscriptions aren’t something I’ll ever buy into software wise and if they are offering an actual service it better be worth the money and give me more than an image.

Never seen a single ad here in the UK and constant 5 bars no other phones came close, that battery also lasted me 2 days and the camera, remote desktop etc were stellar.

Kinda feel Huawei were the ones pushing everything new and Samsung was playing copycat.

Oh yeah Ir blaster, Micro SD and a headphone jack.
