It supported torrent for ages, but it has only one tracker that doesn’t really have very much content. Now qBitTorrent or something else supports it out of the box.
I2P is very slow, slower than Tor. Maybe after more people join, it will be faster. Last time I tried it was painfully slow to even load most eepsites.
If you don’t buy no-name brand phones, you will get at least one major update. Even chinese brands such as xiaomi will provide updates. You can also install generic LineageOS image if your phone can be unlocked some way, official or not. It works on most devices.
But many smart TVs become useless very quick. When I was using 2015 phone in 2020, TV newer than that already loaded the lightweight Google version for unsupported browsers and vast majority sites/apps became unavailable. It used browser that was already 2 years old when it was released and never released an update to it. But when there was root vulnerability, they released a fix after long time of being basically unsupported.
I use Gitea as project hosting and personal wiki. I also host Nextcloud for files and news and Jellyfin for movies and music.
In this order.
On lineageos also just pegasus. Only thing that makes it better than stock android is that you have more chances for security patches. Dumno about graphene, it has some additional protections, but still susceptible to some vulnerabilities of android.
On kbin it counts as two upvotes to the reputation points and it shows the posts you boosted on your profile. Dunno about Lemmy.
Enough people are used to the proprietary apps, so it doesn’t matter for them. 0,01% of users flowing to other protocols for just part of their conversations isn’t going to hurt them.
The machines should tip the customer for doing job well. After all, it’s him doing the work cashier typically does.
I’m still using Magisk on LOS 20. Banking app works flawlessly and SafetyNet passes, at least on microg.
You just need to install this module instead of using magiskhide now: https://github.com/kdrag0n/safetynet-fix
Wonder if they will make EU-only variant of hardware and software which will be like totally different phone. They already did sideloading, USB-C and now this. What next?
