average Phoronix forum user unfortunately 💀

but Phoronix' journalism is good

(which is why I only read the articles through my RSS readers and never go on the site or associated forums)

that's the thing though, it strips you of the options the four essential freedoms provide.

and imo it's not rly an argument. Libre software is free as in freedom and not necessarily free as in beer. You could license it under the (A)GPL, charge for downloads in the Play store or for compiled binaries on ur website and ask for donations on F-Droid.

You could even do a freemium version where some features are locked in the binaries you distribute and need a license from ur website or smth (for those who don't want to use Google Play). (iirc SD Maid 2/SE does this)

unfortunately Futo seems to only be source-available and not libre software :/

though I can +1 the Heliboard recommendation! idk when they added it but it finally has a multilingual keyboard function :)

I used to use Simple Gallery and later Fossify Gallery. Now that I have a device new enough for Accrescent to work on it I discovered Aves Gallery Libre.

It's much nicer and polished in many ways but I do miss some features sometimes

Maybe CalyxOS would be a better fit then?

seems like a good middle ground tbh. No cryptocurrency will ever reach the adoption of fiat. This could make online transactions that would otherwise be made over your creditcard, bank or insert fintech like Paypal quite a bit better

And I'd rather have this than a "digital Euro" or "digital Yuan"

before I set up and try out 5 different apps, I thought that I'd get some opinions first

iirc with OpenSuse or Fedora, Secureboot works quite easily too

Google is a tech giant, which abuses peoples privacy with every click

Their phones enable users to (at least partially) escape that bs

that's what I found to be ironic
