Dites les mastonautes qui s'intéressent à la protection de la vie privée, j'ai vu passer ce fil sur Bluesky où le compte de #GrapheneOS accuse #Murena d'induire les utilisateurs en erreur sur la sécurité/respect de la vie privée des utilisateurs :
"/e/OS is extraordinarily insecure and non-private. "

Vous en pensez quoi ? Il y a des analyses fiables sur le sujet ?
RT bienvenus
If you're unable to run the new GOV•UK app on GrapheneOS, Lineage, or any other 3rd party Android app - please leave a +1 or some more details at https://github.com/alphagov/govuk-mobile-android-app/issues/342
(Do not be mean, aggressive, or sarcastic in that issue; you catch more flies with honey than with vinegar. Also, please don't reply to this message about how you don't need an app; a blocking often offends.)
After the transformation away from US services and products, it's time to go one step further.
As I have already announced, I will soon be replacing my Pixel 9 with Graphene OS with a Fairphone 6 with /e/OS from Murena.
Although I personally really appreciate Graphene OS and am an avid user, I'm not sure what the future will bring under the fascist Trump. As I said, he can force US companies to hand over data of European users or turn off their services for Europe with the stroke of a pen. Or whatever other stupid things this orange psychopath can think of. Pixel devices from Google are another point.
However, I'm still considering a Framework Laptop 12 for my future laptop because of its sustainability and reparability.
Framework? AN US COMPANY??? Yes, unfortunately there is no European equivalent in this field, but unlike software and internet solutions, I am relatively independent after the purchase. The worst case would be if I could no longer buy current components. But then the Framework would be just like any other computer, which is generally almost impossible to repair or upgrade. But I want to keep that option open.
And I hope - like the rest of the world - that the fascist and criminal spook in the USA will soon be over and the situation there will return to some semblance of normality. Hope dies last...

Holy shit! I've found a contactless payment app which works on #GrapheneOS!
Google Wallet refuses to play nicely with nonofficial OSes.
All UK credit card providers seem to go via GPay.
But Curve - the virtual card app - works perfectly! I added my credit card, set up their contactless wallet, and just paid for a bun using NFC 😃
Only works with Visa & MasterCard, but that's good enough for me.

PewDiePie just now going full anti-BigTech explaining his complete de-googling (except Youtube).
#Linux#Arch, #RaspberryPi, #GrapheneOS, #FOSS and more FOSS. The fellow has seen the light, found a true passion apparently.
GrapheneOS: Where Licenses Matter More Than People
GrapheneOS could have shipped real accessibility support. They had a screen reader. They had a libre speech engine — one they requested a feature from. They got that feature.
And then they said no.
Because the license was GPLv3.
They’ll ship sandboxed Google Play Services.
They’ll let you install GPLv3 software from their app store.
But a working screen reader for blind users?
Blocked. On principle.
This isn’t a technical limitation.
This is not a matter of priorities.
This is cruelty by ideology — and they’re proud of it.
So here it is. My full public dissection of the excuses, the hypocrisy, and the sheer contempt they’ve shown to the people who need privacy and security most: the disabled.
They chose licensing purity over basic humanity.
I chose to write this.

That damages everyone. You, them, and myself. It's not helpful.
