Regarding privacy breaches I agree with your tips but its not Google play specific. Fdroid apps can do the same and random apks from links or github can be worse.

Some dont get security updates. Others still share data with google. As I understand it.

Yeah. That’s ops whole point.

Not sure why the dev dosnt link the old project to the new.

Sorry for your shitty situation.

Try this. No root needed. I’m pretty much google free on FP5 (and others).

Removes most google apps and services.

Also try not to ever sign into google on your phone directly. Use Aurora Store, DAVX, Thunderbird etc.

Does that auto tile though?

Pretty sure the dev did add sponsor block but in another repo/app name. Or maybe it was another dev. Anyway Tubular is new pipe with sponsor block, snd PipePipe is a hard fork with other extras.

If I’m running mostly f-droid apps, and play services is not installed (e.g. I cant run YT-Revanced as it needs gapps).

Then does that mean I should be able to move over to graphine without much issue?

What abkut the one or two apps uninstall throguh Aurora store, woild they work?

Tried this 6-9 months ago and it was a shambles that I could hardly get working.

The main issue (once it was working) was program (Stremio) not supporting keyboard only options.

I also wanted to run android apps full screen (like a dog nvidia shield) but it was chaos.

I thought it was abandoned.

Am I right in thinking the steps here scrape metadata images etc for the eBooks you already have. And that you may already own them via legal or high seas methods.

Or is there a way for Calibre to auto download eBooks from somewhere.

Implying Lemmy is the best/only place to get political news. :/

Some of us come here for fun and get our doom elsewhere.

I think the whole key is more of a conversation starter than just QR code. We all know what they are and dont ask people questions aboit them.

Does it have persistence when rebooted ?

I read a heap of peer review articles on thst. They seemed to suggest a form without all the P when ads (sans?) Is just as good. Along woth mono space and larger font size.

Helvetica or Ariel are just as good. In use Adobe Ember or whatever its called.

YMMV

Ive been using Kali in a lab lately and the terminal seems to remember commands and prefills them. How do I do Something like that in Mint?

Do these health risks apply to phones :/?

Interestingly this is my path to linux, and Ive seen it recommended elsewhere.

Move all your services to the cloud, or foss software (as most is available on linux). Then get off windows.

Libreoffice Inkscape / gimp Firefox/Chromium Thunderbird Obsidian (for notes) Bitwarden Signal Syncthing

And most of these have phone apps too!

Why not make the move now while you have win10 to fall back on?

Obligatory: Mint was the best balanced distro I foind.

Got a libre2 recently as a gift. My first ereader. I was able to plug it into the PC. Change a line of code and reboot.

Thst made the email prompt go away.

Then installed koreader and syncthing on it. I DL books on Android and it syncs over to Kobo. I can even read via koreader app on andrpid and it syncs progression.

Why use calibre at all? KO reader and Sync thing seams to be fine for my mobile to e reader. And syncs progress.

What am I missing?
