  • The quality of Reddit has been declining for the last ~5 years. Even if you ignore all the shady shit Reddit themselves have done, the platform has been declining due to simple popularity. Simple-brained people joining and upvoting memes and reposts and fucking TikToks. There’s also just the toxicity of society in general. There used to be honest discussions and nuance and input from industry experts. Now it’s incredibly corporate, and hardcore liberal, and full of the same toxicity as Twitter.

    It used to be mostly Libertarians and Atheists, kinda like how Lemmy is all sysadmins and Linux enthusiasts.


















  • dislike this OS due to perceived misleading advertising

    It’s a non-profit, there is no advertising.

    and the pixel 7a you’re supposed to install graphene on because it’s from google (an advertising company).

    Yeah I dunno what that’s supposed to mean. You can’t install it on an iPhone or most other Android devices because they all have locked bootloader’s (among other reasons). They only develop for Pixel because it streamlines the development process, along with having the highest level of security in the SoC.

    Another option would be lineage OS

    Lineage is a great project, and fairly private, but as the name implies, it’s intended for older phones to increase their life. Not necessarily to be private.

    what works for you?
