A lot worse. Was tired of the [removed] trope whenever mods did something incredibly stupid.

Not being open source ≠ not safe.
Microsoft ships hardened Chromium basically, with sandboxing turned up to eleven.
They also run their SmartScreen filtering on top of that.
Also, Firefox is more private, not secure. Either you run LibreFox or it’s less secure than Edge by default.
Social(ist) policies are extremely removed from socialism. The countries people list here, aka Canada, Danmark and Ireland among others are extremely capitalist still. This thread is therefore useless.
The last paragraph has a Mechanicus ring to it lmao
I do. It’s more secure than any other alternative. Not private, but really, really secure.
Best solution: Stop using Chrome.
It’s not the fastest nor the most feature rich anymore, not even the simplest.
Yup Play attestation is dead, even the new and shiny “secure” one is bypassed. It’s now just a hinderence.
Unfortunately not a feasible solution. If the vast majority of websites support this, any sort of OSS solution is dead to the average user.
As an alternative, you could consider KDE Connect. It does a lot more than just keyboard and touchpad. You can even send files both ways extremely quickly.
Also, the frame drops. Oh the frame drops. Searching and app and scrolling down always drops frames since Google switched away from Android Market. I can’t imagine how does it still happen to this day lmao.
It’s not even available in my own country to begin with lmao.
Connect is by far the most polished but the bar isn’t that high unfortunately. I’m waiting for Sync, it was the best Reddit client in my opinion. At least when it came to UX, it was really good. I have high expectations for Sync for Lemmy.
As far as I know, it was in a worse state. What Elon did since he took over is basically reducing the running costs heavily among other things.
People tend to forget Twitter never made money so far.
I wonder why.
I wonder why.
LOS heavily hinders feature set, though. I wouldn’t recommend to anyone that’s not a techie, especially with MicroG.
Samsung features that’ll get removed are:
• Camera. It’ll work in LOS but quality will be much lower without Samsung’s processing.
• Standby time. It’ll last a lot less as LOS doesn’t kill background apps like OneUI does.
• Any sort of audio video enhancement. Dolby Atmos will be completely gone. HDR enchantments won’t be there either.
• Samsung DeX.
• HBM won’t work automatically. On OneUI, if system detects you’re under direct sunlight and auto brightness on; it’ll boost the brightness above regular maximum. You can have this on LOS via LiveDisplay but it isn’t automatic afaik.
• Phone will get hotter when it’s used while charging. OneUI both lowers charging speed and lowers performance (unless you’re in a game) while charging. LOS doesn’t. It might get uncomfortably hot compared to OneUI.
• Noise reduction in voice calls barely work under LOS. This is especially true when calling on speaker, LOS is borderline unusable when there’s even a little bit background noise.
Switching to LOS for a techie is fine, but recommending it to someone who you don’t know how they use their device isn’t great. If OP watches a ton of movies, OneUI will have much better experience. If all OP does is social media, LOS is completely fine.
There are basically no ads if you buy Samsung S series without a carrier.
This was the pipe dream for many many years now. Not the first time MS is talking about it either.
It’s a thing in the Linux world and it’s just too costly to support and therefore most user facing distros outright don’t support it.
