This is the worst meme template, ever

Maybe fully reset/restore your phone first to wipe any malicious apps?

If anything, use a degoogled OS instead of android.

I wonder what distro they use 🧐

Like others have stated, using a container is probably the best way to help minimize footprint. Use fake info/data when possible, maybe?

Good luck 🍀

Meta & privacy are like oil & water. The only absolute here is that there is no privacy in meta products.

If someone is interested in privacy communities they’ll listen to all angles, even the absurd & absolutist, so that they can learn more about privacy, which is the whole point of joining the community. The attitude in your comment is actually the total turn off. Way to be open-minded & be willing to engage in constructive conversation.

Took years to get all the ppl I care about on signal & now the effort was definitely worth the reward.

Why don’t you feel comfortable on signal? Honestly it’s worked out for the best in my use case bc I have ppl that use android, iOS, windows, Linux & macOS, so it’s great to not have to deal with shit media quality or messages not going through bc of all the different operating systems. It’s E2EE so I’m not too worried about mass surveillance within my signal groups.

Also, iOS back door? I must have missed that. Haven’t seen any news about that.

“It even plays Mission Impossible theme music in the background.”

Hahaha! That’s amazing 🥲

Mullvad or Proton are legit choices 🥷

Thanks! Might take you up on that offer when I have some time to track down a used pixel!

This is seriously much appreciated! Been hesitant to stick from iOS to Graphene but this piqued my interest! 🤳

Yep, it’s the same! Option key during startup is the only difference 🙋🏼‍♀️

Y’all got this! Good luck 🍀

Ooh, interesting! Thanks for sharing! TIL 🤓

Ooh, I gotcha! LMDE doesn’t default to gnome or kde. LMDE installs w cinnamon.

Not sure I’ve seen much of lxqt. Will def give that a once over our if curiosity!

They’re both great starters, imo! Xfce or LMDE is a solid choice for Linux beginners.

Xfce was a little too minimal for me & iirc it’s canonical-based. I chose lmde specifically bc I prefer Debian. I can’t recall if I had any major issues setting up either of them. I think it also just comes down to visual/aesthetic preferences. They’re both highly customizable so either way you’re good!

I’m gonna set up xfce for my dad on an old Dell desktop & i’m sure he’ll appreciate how close it is to windows right out of the box. 📦
