  • thanks for this, I was also in this situation, I got a xiaomi router and flashed OpenWRT on it, I then turned off the Wifi switch on the ISP router making it a modem only but I was still concerned about my internet data as it moves between my modem and their servers. your comment made it clearer

    i should probably invest in that mullvad vpn now


  • everyone keeps mentioning Pixel Devices, but I’d personally never use one for the same reason I won’t wear branded clothes

    you should check out OnePlus devices, the bootloaders are easily unlocked and they’ve major LineageOS support, the phones also have a high quality build, if you like the form of your XR, definitely check out the OnePlus 8/8 pro or 9/9 pro

    another option is if you can get any of the Samsung S10 models with an exynos chip, they also have strong build and are supported by lineageOS as well












  • i nuked my nixos install twice to install guix and twice I went back to my nix setup. GuixSD is missing a certain polish to it. It feels like it’s on the way there but probably not yet…

    the second time was just last week, after setup on sway, I installed flatpak apps and tried setting up nix-env for packages, some XDG_DATA_DIR fucked up and I couldn’t even see the installed packages or start them from a terminal

    servers are also slow and rebuilding is a fucking pain
