    I have found I use less of things they make inaccessible. They took reddit away and I have been fine, for once people are talking to me and I havent already read the top comments on the topic. Their move to block old.reddit.com will probably get rid of the last bits I use it for, the odd movie review thread or search for a wank.

      Yeah, the government won’t let us have our own property though so not really an ex

    Then get iOS and run yt plus. Quite literally iOS users CAN still run adless youtube even though it’s a bit of a hack (refresh every 7 days via SideStore app on your phone unless you have a dev membership)

    Or the better solution if you care about privacy and freedom over convenience, get an Android phone with an openable bootloader. Preferably one that’s not a Pixel.

      My next phone will be a Fairphone, but I’m not made of money so I’m stuck with my Samsung atm.

        Haven’t kept up with the Android ecosystem after moving to iOS. I hear GrapheneOS is working with Motorola to support an upcoming phone of theirs if you’re privacy minded (GrapheneOS) and don’t want a Pixel (only device it currently runs on)

    GrapheneOS, Iodé and /e/OS should be unaffected if you want open Android

      it genuinely makes me a bit angry that y’all never mention lineage, why are you ignoring by far the most normalized and usable android distribution??

      • StumblingWasabi@lemmy.today ⁨8⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

        I’d use lineage if I could, but they only support a year older modle of my phone

        I just wasn’t aware that Lineage is degoogled, that’s all.

        It’s not some conspiracy against Lineage, Lineage seems great. Haven’t used it in a while but that’s just because I use e/OS personally.
