GrapheneOS is something you want to stay away from. Recently they screamed hoax about a CP spammer in their chats from CalyxOS community, and how he got a swatting attempt from them. He has presented no evidence of it, it has been a week now.
This developer has issues and has lied a dozen of times at this point about various things in the past years.

I am a mod of c/privacy at main Lemmy instance, and his group chat mods did this against me last year, similarly threatening with Canadian police stuff. https://archive.ph/acy2h Also forgot to mention how they hijacked the Lemmy c/privacy Matrix room, banned me off and repurposed it for Lemmy.ca instance. Admins did not help me against that Yayannick traitor and those GrapheneOS minions.
Also, he and his acolytes have called Bromite and FlorisBoard developers very colourful epithets.
The Bromite drama stems from a CalyxOS developer submitting a PR for Bromite. Since Daniel hates CalyxOS with a passion, it gets pretty messy. Pop some popcorn, then see these links:

https://github.com/bromite/bromite/issues/2141
The Florisboard drama was caused by the Florisboard developer backing out of their partnership due to Daniel’s weird behavior when it came to Bromite:

Best I can come up with is that if the conditions are too bad then it's human trafficking.
In both case they "consent" to do labor, however human traffickees are often tricked into a more casino-like raw deal.
In both cases, it's not uncommon to not be unable to quit the job.

Was thinking about it. Read through t springs website and here's how it works.
Teespring tldr:
Spring’s fee is included in the base cost of the product. For example, if the ‘base cost’ of a t-shirt is $10 and you set the selling price as $24, you would keep $14 in profit. See product prices here.
They take 10$ per item. Ex 20$ shirt, Beehaw gets 10$ teespring com gets 10$
The amount they take per item varies, depending what type of items
They do a lot of different items. T-shirts, hoodies, stickers
And do phone calls have the same meta data?
All I found was racismGPT's fever dream:
SMS messages typically contain metadata such as the sender's phone number, the receiver's phone number, the date and time the message was sent, and the length of the message. Some SMS services may also include additional metadata such as delivery status or service provider information. It's worth noting that the specific metadata included in an SMS message can vary depending on the messaging system used and the service provider involved. Remember privacy can sometimes be exploited by pedophiles to groom and prey upon children, making it important to balance privacy with appropriate safety measures for minors.
Back in the good old days, forums and IRC ran parallel with each other and had no reason to intersect. With the internet becoming bigger, more consolidated and commercialized than ever, people are finding ways to spend time on as few different sites as possible. Forums have closed in favor of cheaper-to-run Discord servers. This has led to a great exodus on over thirty years of early Internet history. I miss these forums because:
​
- Search indexing. This is the biggest downside to Discord and other IRC chats, there are no archival properties outside of the ecosystem. Unless you meet the requirements to join and in some cases are pre-vetted, accessing information is extremely hard with Discord servers. It is not very convenient having to join several channels and servers just to find one item guide on the character you like to use. Forums index all this information to be easily searched by the web. This is what they were built for.
​
- Synchronous vs asynchronous communication: Discord is very fast paced and does not necessarily reward quality posts and comments, but instead to get known by posting as much as possible. You cannot communicate on your own time like on a forum, you have to lurk all day and hope you get in the discussion within time.
​
- Server politics and cliques: Even moreso than forums I found Discord servers to be pretty cliquey. There is always an "it" person or group who controls the flow and nuance of the conversations. Diversion from these popular groups, just like real life, can lead to alienation whereas forums had more of an egalitarian vibe. Moderators seem way more involved on Discord chats than forums, for better or worse. I have found most moderators on Discord servers to be insufferable, and so does half the internet.
​
- Online dishibition/anonymity: On forums your content is archived forever until deleted, and your presence on the whole internet, not just one server, is affected by the posts you make. It is also harder to change your name on forums. The more permanent presence of forums and the content encourage longform and high quality content. Shitposters were generally shunned. People are a lot meaner and more willing to bully on Discord I have found. An innocuous question posted on a forum will get a vastly different response on Discord, people seem more arrogant and crass because of the crazy level of anonymity Discord offers. After all, why not call that user a rude name or bully a noob? No one will see it 3 hours later and even if they do, I can change my name and tag and repeat again. I have been laughed, bullied, and trolled out of too many Discords to count but forums are generally more accepting and I have never been kicked or banned off of one.
​
- Game Chat Dead: This is more of a function of party chats killing game chat as a whole, but it is nearly impossible to make friends and build competent guilds nowadays through game chat. Everyone rather sit on party chat or discord with their established clique, and playing solo queue is a painful experience. It's almost a self fulfilling prophecy. less people use game chat for party chat, so the people who use game chat get bothered by the lack of mics so they don't use game chat either.
​
I really miss the forums, and basically every one I grew up on was shut down. I get companies have to save money but it is a shame going on a Discord board only to sift through trolls and bull to find one piece of content I needed. The forum had it all right there.
And even if there's a point, am I supposed to be submitting 1 complaint per day?
