  • Unpopular opinion but.. First privacy and security is not the same, one relays on the other tho. So find your treat model when it comes to privacy. If its about security as you mentioems qubes is also great, yet needs a lot of knowledge. Your computer is only as secure as you made it and make it! Keep it up to date etc. For a normal user who don't have the knowledge or used qubes or even Linux in the past it is probably a jump to high. Macos is secure, not very private. Consider all of this find out yout treat model find out what you use your computer for. Separate business and private accounts etc..

  • What does Bluesky have that Mastodon doesn't?
  • Not sure who was giving me the down vote, but I honestly would love to like bluesky more, but I get to much of those on discovery and what's hot classic.. I don't mind the cats...

  • What does Bluesky have that Mastodon doesn't?
  • Lots of semi naked dudes and I still don't know why!

  • Does anyone use both an iPhone and a Pixel with GrapheneOS?
  • I signed up and it shows that price and put me on a waiting list..

  • Does anyone use both an iPhone and a Pixel with GrapheneOS?
  • Don't you need your mac open for that to work and forward or so.. I never looked over beeper

  • Does anyone use both an iPhone and a Pixel with GrapheneOS?
  • I never understood the all or nothing approach. I use grapheneOS as my daily drive for work, and have multiple profiles for each of my needs. That's probably all you need, however I do have an iPhone (lots of !y family do imessage and we are sadly in the ecosystem I use apple music for example. I like also some apps more on iOS. Especially for mastodon, but even for Lemmy apple has some great apps. Again I don't think you need two devices, especially when you use profiles. But I do see why iOS is attractive and used alongside. IPads is another big use, no android tablet comes close.

  • Why shouldn't anyone switch to iOS?
  • I am a gadget fanatic, but I also love to maintain privacy. One problem I always see mentioned is wallet garden on iOS. I put some of my experience into the ring here. I use GrapheneOS as my daily drive for most things. This starts with no google services and ends with profiles where I can separate people and groups and install multiple of the same apps.. like signal etc.

    For lots of my work, I use a samsung fold 4. It replaced my laptop, and it's convenient. With adg (remove many Samsung apps and the Facebook and microsoft bloatware) and block internet access to most apps via rethinkdns and decloudus, you get a pretty convenient yet private device. I monitor what goes in and out and block all i don't need.

    My family is all into apple so I also have an iPhone (not an excuse haha, I also love some of the wallet gardened things. Like apple music, imessage (for very few people) and I love the focus setup. I know you can do a lot manually on android to get it similar, but focus modes are a killer. I also never found as great looking and working mastodon apps (and yes, I use tusky, fedilab, and a few others on android. I still prefer what ios (some paid, some free have to offer, mammoth comes to mind on the free end). To make things more private, I use adguard pro in combination with decloudus and block apple our of the device. Still get push, and all works when you add a very few domains listing on the decloudus whitelist page.

    So I use 3 options (GrapheneOS what is surly the best when it comes to privacy) but also wouldn't want to miss ios or a fold.

    iOS is great and if it works for you and you are happy with it, perhaps even have a mac then you can make it a great, private and secure device. Use lockdown mode is also a great way I didn't see on android yet.

  • Debloat Samsung for Pixel like experience?
  • Depends, the ultra has the spen. Modes and routines are also pretty neat.. most of the stuff comes with samsung can be used without a samsung account. Sadly, secure folders need a samsung account.

  • Samsung’s One UI 6 Beta Program Offers Galaxy S23 Series Users a Sneak Peek at New Enhancements
  • It looks very close to iOS, but i guess that's intentional haha

  • Debloat Samsung for Pixel like experience?
  • I think missing out is the wrong wording. The samsung has way more to offer, but it is a privacy nightmare. You can, however, remove a lot of bloatware and go with rethinkdns and their firewall by blocking most system apps you leave. Another approach would be combining the firewall with decloudus. I used nextdns for years and tried adguard as well, but decloudus get samsung and google pretty much eliminated.

    You won't have the GrapheneOS privacy setup and will never be able to come close to that. Yet, it's not the worth way to get a samsung phone behave and not calling home ;)
