You’re well on your way to making some really good choices. I also have to ask, are you using a password manager already? And if so, which one are you using? I use keepassxc on linux and keepassdx (from fdroid) on android and sync the database with a flash drive. I don’t trust any clouds, and so I don’t have any of my files on clouds. Also, are you using Monero yet?
What you can do is download the Aurora store from fdroid, which will give you access to Google Play apps without needing the Google Play store, and then go in and disable Google Play services. That way, if something breaks that you absolutely can’t live without, you can go turn it back on again. What you will find is that most apps will no longer send you notifications because most apps use what’s called Google FCM to provide you notifications which requires Google Play services. So in most cases apps will no longer send you notifications. Some apps will give you warnings to the effect of this app may not work properly without Google Play services and give you an OK button and in most cases they will work alright. And some few apps will just absolutely refuse to work. I know for a fact that Uber and Lyft will refuse to work without Google Play services enabled. With uber at least you can visit m.uber.com.
As the person mentioned above, using open source apps as much as you can is a great step in the right direction as they don’t phone home nearly as much. If at all. Make fdroid your new best friend and maybe add the izzyondroid repo to it.
Another category of apps you may have trouble with is mobile banking. I used to have a Neo bank called Chime, and their app worked fine without Google Play services, but I wanted to not need the Aurora store anymore, and I could not transfer between accounts with the Chime website, and so I ended up switching banks entirely.
Yeah, i meant GB/s. Thanks for pointing that out.
Oh good point. 14.9GB/s
Run meshtastic on it
I wonder why they’re not using TB/s like 14.9TB/s
Edit: GB/s
And cars get far to hot already
Oh, okay. So I’m guessing that means like the car might turn on and run the air conditioner for a few minutes every hour. Just to cool itself down. That’s what it seems like anyway.
This might be a dumb question, but I think it’s worth asking anyway. How do they deal with the interior of the car getting as hot as a fucking blast furnace? Because if you leave a regular car out in the sun, it becomes like a fucking blast furnace when you open the door. Heat like that can actually cause interior damage, like cracking dashes and stuff. So if you have to leave this car out in the direct sun to charge, how do they avoid this problem? Like, I’m imagining you go to work, and your car is sitting in the work parking lot directly in the sun for hours a day. And it’s collecting power to drive you home, but it’s also massively heating up.
Ah, okay. I think I heard about it at an earlier point where it was only using your current email.
Okay, I’m sorry, but that’s just kind of ironic.
Ugh. This fight is never ending. I feel like after a while you just get totally burned out of fighting and have to pass it on to others.

Doesn’t seem like many improvements to be had when it takes several terabytes to run one of the aggregators and increasing all the time.
That’s my understanding as well. It’s to keep people like the media from being able to determine upcoming functionality by looking at code snippets. So the development would go on in secret, and then once per year, all the final code would be pushed to AOSP. However, OP does make a good point because if you have to examine all the final code at once, you might miss something that would be privacy detrimental.
I use signal myself but I also use simple X. I can’t use delta chat because I use proton for my email and therefore can’t use delta.
Retoswap.com. You download the software similar to Bisq and you can transfer Fiat into Monero. Just this month it’s had its first five million dollar month. And so it’s increasing all the time.
In theory, yes. Blue Sky does run on a federated model. In practice, no. If the Blue Sky Corporation died, it would be gone. If I remember correctly, all direct messages go through them no matter where you have your home data and such.
To the best of my knowledge, that’s the only one they have.
