I was going to say that

Used an iPhone very long ago as my daily driver (I think the iPhone 4… the neon green one) until I discovered android.

I switched because Had so much more choices and that you weren’t locked down. If you have an iPhone you have to use Apple’s services no matter what. Want to uninstall safari, because it is a really awful browser? Well you can’t. Want privacy? No that’s not possible (I know what Apple advertises but just because an iPhone is built to be privacy-friendly doesn’t mean that services from Apple are privacy-friendly. And how will you prove that an iPhone could be considered privacy-friendly anyway?)

What also triggers me: with newer iPhones you do not have a universal backup option thingy. If you use your Phone with your right hand it is really annoying to constantly reach for the upper left corner to go back. On android: You can decide what gesture to use to go back. You can use three buttons or swiping gestures etc.

As other users mentioned, with android you have lots of choices. I for example have a Fairphone 4. I can replace my display myself without needing to pay extra for Apple Care. My Brother has a folding phone, I hate it, but there is the option.

Another great factor is customization. Apple does a great job, Android just does it better in some ways. “How?” You might ask, well, you can choose what launcher you want to use. You can choose what icons you like, and you even can choose an alternative App Store like F-Droid. And you can even choose the whole OS, like Lineage OS and Graphene OS. I for example use Kvaesitsio as a launcher, I mean look how beautiful it looks.

Until I’ve read your comment I always thought that I would be a good idea but now I’m all against it.

German laundry detergent

I mean German isn’t any easier: Umfahren means to run over someone And Umfahren means to drive around something

That jar behind the kitty looks like a really creeped out face.

Ignore the critics

Let’s say you’re planning to read a new book, watch a Movie or, in my case, considering purchasing a new video game. I usually check review sites like Metacritic to see if it was well-received. For some reason, critics always seem to praise the worst games and shame the best ones.

I know I could just skip reading these reviews, but since I don’t have a lot of money, I need to make smart choices. Sometimes, the reviews from the users help a lot.

Tuta

I like tuta.com (formerly Tutanota). The mobile app is really simple—so much so that they’ve only recently added a red and blue themed dark mode. Aside from that, I have never encountered any problems in my few years of using it.

They offer both free and paid plans. I recently decided to subscribe to Tuta to support their project, although in previous years the free plan worked fine for me.

Jokes aside, I find the picture somehow very beautiful.

Good point, but still I want to play a game.

Kvaesitso is such a good launcher, have yet to find something which is better.

Image Toolbox Its a photo editor with everything you need. Its really really powerful and so fleshed out. Everytime I use it, I discover something new. The only sad thing is, that I can’t donate in XMR otherwise I’ve would of donated. If you have an android, download it and try it. It’s a must have on any phone imo.

I tried this but my signal isn’t strong enough to get thorugh the walls. In some classrooms it works, but it’s more like a 50/50 chance to stay connected.

I have gotten in trouble for using a VPN I’m the past but it was just a little talk and then they were cool with it. The thing is, that it is my device and at the school I don’t have a strong enough signal for my phone. So I can’t just make a hotspot and use that as WiFi. I need to use the WiFi to get my things done but I will not use the WiFi if I can’t protect my privacy. I know that this sounds pretty stupid but I won’t comply with my school.

Well it certainly would be cool to break the system but I honestly don’t have the skills for that. I don’t even know how I could possibly do that.

It is my own laptop. If I could, I would use tails constantly as I do at Home but the school enforces MS356 which doesn’t work on Linux. The thing that upsets me the most is that I used happily my VPN for one and a half years and out of nowhere it got blocked. I had some discussions with the school, because I thought that this is a really dumb move. But they refused to unblock it, but still it was an attempt.

I don’t know where to find the policy regarding the network. The computer isn’t school property, I own it which is more frustrating because I have to uninstall (Just disabeling it and the Killswitch won’t work) any VPN to start using the network.

A few years back I worked at a home. They organised the whole data structure but needed to move to another Providor. I and my colleagues moved roughly just about 15.4 TB. I don’t know how long it took because honestly we didn’t have much to do when the data was moving so we just used the downtime for some nerd time. Nerd time in the sense that we just started gaming and doing a mini LAN party with our Raspberry and banana pi’s.

Surprisingly the data contained information of lots of long dead people which is quiet scary because it wasn’t being deleted.
