np, and also not sure if you have to use bank apps to do transfer everyday but you can try to use 2 phones. Thats what i did until i make sure the bank apps work well.

Also look up profiles in GrapheneOS too. I have a dedicates profile for Banks apps only with different password and fingerprints.

For authenticator, do NOT use Authy

ffs microsoft. At this point i might as well just go back to: notepad++ and a terminal on Windows, or gedit and a terminal on linux. Emacs is great but i spent more time writing elisp rather than working…

tbh the only thing that keeps people from jumping to a full deGoogle phone or an open source Linux phone is app. More specifically, IM and chat apps.

Social media and all those entertainment like Youtube, we can access via a good web browser. But those IM apps? Very hard because you can try to use an alternative, but people around you dont.

which 2fa do you use for work? microsoft? authy?

Authy doesnt work so I am transferring all to Keepass Not sure about microsoft though

“AI Credit”

fuck !!!

or any stock launchers will do. Nowadays the stocks are more than enough for me. On GOS, I tried Lawnchair but always go back to the default one.

damn i remember the good old days with Nova where everything was so smooth. Evie launcher too. And even we have many problems with them, Microsoft launcher was good in the beginning.

Using parental control is too hard so leave it to the government huh

what a fucking joke

if only more people move away from Google shit. The problem is always about the sheer number of apps Google has. I can switch no problem, but convincing my relatives or even a company to switch? Thats tough.

Working on updates

20 % complete

Please dont turn off your computer.

Instead of completely moving to 1 service, I would try to compartmentalize the digital life better. For me I tried:

• all banks and very sensitive stuff => Proton Mail

• every other emails => Gmail.

• Password Manager: yes Proton Pass is nice but i like things to work offline and access whenever i can => KeePass. I secure my database with a password and a keyfile. I transfer and uodate my database with Syncthing.

• 2 FA stuff: i had Authy but it is a piece of shit app now. So I am moving to Keepass. Yes, you can add TOTP to anything in Keepass. The only thing i still need Authy for is Steam.

Ctrl + L is very nice… holy shit

The ads themselves got worse too, not just about skipping them.
I see toooooooooo many ads about Taichi for men over 60. Fml, now it becomes Military calisthenic for men over 40…

Also those ads with the zombie games…

well well here we go again old friend:

sudo pacman -Syu

If youre not picky and want to use the default setups, arch install is so easy now. The script is very easy to follow and takes like 10 mins to install depending on your network speed. The only “hard” part during the install is connect to the internet. But iwctl takes care of that

bro… wtf should i use now??

Back to Arch??

Back to Debian??

or fuck it go TempleOS…

spez has a very punchable face. After that API fiasco that forced many devs out of business, i didnt think i can hate him more till now

ffs how can at this much further into Windows cycle, and we still have shit like this? I mean the main drive is the most important one, I can understand if this happens to Win 1 or 2 but after soo many iterations? Just no.

another solution for you is no profiles, just the main + Private Space. In main you dont use any Google stuff. In your private space (setup with a different unlock method from your screenlock), you sign in and get your Google stuff. I havent tried it but it sounds ok…Not sure about transferring files though. E.g. what if I have a news article in Vanadium in mainland and want to share it to my contacts in Private Spac? Or the reverse: I got a pdf from whatsapp in Private Space and want to store it in my main’s folder?
