Take a look at the security functions the Pixel platform hardware provides. It isn't optional.

GrapheneOS is Android though.

I'm also disappointed with Ugo for this post. It seems uncharacteristically poorly thought out and inconsistent. If climate change risk is high then also is crop loss and following famine, for example.

I've also thought of that option, since it offers flexibility and allows better receiver placement.

Many people have made the point that towns embedded into a rural landscape have better scaling for infrastructure and transport distances in the tail end of the fossil age than large cities. Arguably we're already seeing some first egress waves into the surrounding countryside, though for the wrong reasons, since mostly driven by remote work which depends on a high technology level.

Almost but the most traditional all Amish are using diesel for agricultural production. I agree that their society is one of the best prepared for the coming challenges. It is not a lifestyle I would choose voluntarily, and many aspects of Amish are not at all attractive to a person whose values have been shaped by modernity.

Thanks for the suggestion, but I was thinking of continous, transparent position fix acquisition.

No, Revolt checks neither of my boxes unfortunately.

End to end encryption between clients (also for groups) seems to partly address the issue of a bad server. As for self-hosting, any rented or cloud sevices are very vulnerable to an evil maid. So either in-house hosting or locked cages with tamper-proof hardware remain an option.

It would be even better to capture, even though it's expensive. But the chapter on natural gas is closing, anyway.

What's the protection in the clients assuming compromised infrastructure, like e.g. in https://notes.valdikss.org.ru/jabber.ru-mitm/ ?

It is entirely insecure.

So what's left? Jabber?

I run stock, because it's my work phone. LineageOS would be an option, but I prefer GrapheneOS, which currently limits me to Pixels.

Risk perception completely askew. Ugo seems to lose his touch.

While I use Vanadium, it doesn't support the basic Firefox plugins.

To hell. In a handbasket.

You still don't?

Dunno, for now Ironfox and Vanadium as a fallback work for me on mobile. I'm open to alternative browsers when the upstream fails.

No use cases for this so far.

Mobile service quality is defined by the baseband, which is an immutable blob to the OS. I phone rarely and currently use my old LineageOS phone for it.

I've got a support case for my Pixel 7a open due to potential battery issue. If I return it I will buy a different, bigger (6.7") Pixel model. My new Pixel tablet is doing fine so far.
