I agree

This is gold

Also check out the Universal Android Debloater, it’s FOSS unlike unlike the program you mentioned

A pledge to democracy and democratic values

Good. Fuck Israel. I hope their economy goes down the drain as quickly as possible.

Signal is still great for cross-platform rich messaging, sending photos and videos with good quality (unlike with SMS), as well as voice and video calls. It also has fantastic desktop apps, similar to how you can use iMessage on your Mac, but Signal works on Linux and Windows as well. And you don’t need to be a criminal to care about your privacy.

May I ask why you don’t use it?

Or NextDNS

If you don’t need to configure everything yourself, you can also check out Mullvad’s public DNS or dnsforge

Is this similar to KDE Connect?

I found this one on the internet a few years ago

“Rent”

Who uses that anyway? Back when I was using a Samsung phone, I was always annoyed because I couldn’t uninstall this bullshit

The Pixel with GrapheneOS is simply superior. No ads, no tracking, no bloatware, no bullshit, just 100% FOSS software with privacy and security in mind.

There’s a simple and intuitive application called Universal Android Debloater which does everything for you

It’s free and open source on GitHub: https://github.com/Universal-Debloater-Alliance/universal-android-debloater-next-generation

An Alpine user, cool! What is it like to use it as your primary desktop OS? I have only played around with it on servers or in VMs and containers.

Paru > yay

On Arch I don’t need any, I just run paru without any options, which by default invokes a full Pacman update, as well as updating all AUR packages. But I have a system maintenance script, that, besides doing some other stuff that’s specific to my system, runs paru -Sc --noconfirm to clean the Pacman package cache, and delete unneeded cloned AUR Git repos and build artifacts.

It’s impressive how many things can be achieved with nothing more than the power of open source software

Rclone with crypt seems pretty nice

It’s pretty easy. You either get it from Cargo (the Rust package manager) or add a custom repo to apt.

Cargo is the easier and safer option: curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf https://sh.rustup.rs | sh && cargo install eza

Custom apt repo:

sudo apt update
sudo apt install -y gpg

sudo mkdir -p /etc/apt/keyrings
wget -qO- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/eza-community/eza/main/deb.asc | sudo gpg --dearmor -o /etc/apt/keyrings/gierens.gpg
echo "deb [signed-by=/etc/apt/keyrings/gierens.gpg] http://deb.gierens.de stable main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/gierens.list
sudo chmod 644 /etc/apt/keyrings/gierens.gpg /etc/apt/sources.list.d/gierens.list
sudo apt update
sudo apt install -y eza

In my opinion though, you should also try lsd. It’s even better than eza. You can also get it from Cargo, just a simple cargo install lsd.
