Hey, I am 23yo and I have left instagram ~5 years ago because it was such a waste of time. After school, I’ve gotten more cautious in terms of what happens with my data, but even though I was using DuckDuckGo and FF for everything, I was still hooked on YouTube and my phones stock ROM. YT is my absolute favourite Social Media platform to this date. Only a few months ago, I had a good talk with a friend of mine, who is also into privacy. He told me about how awesome LibreTube is, and showed me, the import feature of it. Since the, I only rely on Gmails servers for K9-Mail, and Google maps. (Any suggestions besides OSM?) Since 2020, my entire friend group, and my close relatives all switched to Signal, and I’ve never been happier with a messenger app. The only thing that bothers me and my privacy friend, is that we still hang out on Discord, but there’s no way, we get our friends to migrate to another service, especially because there are no good alternatives with privacy in focus.
Since 8 months, I am running LineageOS with microG on it. When you’re a tinkerer, I can absolutely recommend microG, but I understand, that its not for everyone, especially when you rely on GPay.
We have very beat up VW T5s at my company and sometimes I do exactly this to practice. I have no empathy left for these, I don’t feel bad for the gearbox. It surely will be the last thing to fail on these cars.
May I tell you about uBlock Origin?
If that is your mindset, you’re definitely better without root. My phone is rooted for three years now and never had any issue. I never had an app fail with my methods to hide Magisk. I even got GPay and contactless payment working when I still had Google services installed. Without them, it is impossible unfortunately.
What? There is a module for that called SafetyNetFix. I am fully rooted and can usw any App I want.
CPU architecture wise, you can see the difference between cluttered, old x86 and ARM or even RISC-V chips. They just run so much more efficient, as you can tell with your phone lasting a day or two, or apple silicon consuming a fraction for the same performance.
An example for the ancient backend would be the flight pathing system DAL. (Wendover video)
