I think this is about what I’ve heard to date on drawbacks, by as you mentioned, I think I’ll take the chance for the privacy benefits.

Agreed, some very talented and generous people worked to make it easier and easier, but less options over time when manufacturers started dropping and phones all consolidated and locked down more and more. Even when it was more complex in early days, and greater risk of a brick, you could often restore back to a stock ROM or dual boot in a way so actual risk was minimal if you just slowed down and followed directions - again provided by very generous people who just wanted to make things better.

I have a newer Pixel phone and I’m comfortable installing and running custom ROMs from doing so regularly back in the day - for those who’ve daily driven both, what are the reasons I should NOT switch from the stock OS to GrapheneOS?

This isn’t a fun game anymore…

• New Nuremberg trials for all in, and allies propping up, the former regime

• Transparent audit of everything trump broke and real-time checklist of process to restore critical needs, prioritizing human lives.

• A lasting and appropriate punishment for trump himself

• Recovering the funds to do all of the above from trump and complicit billionaires in the private sector - starting with musk for his own crimes against humanity.

• A job corp to employ all of the AI layoffs, similar to the New Deal’s Civilian Conservation Corps. Needs a healthy vetting to avoid left over trump chuds

• Expand the Supreme Court

• End Citizens United

• All trump appointees, in all positions, are removed from offices immediately. If not convicted in new Nuremberg trials, they can still reapply for positions and be consists as any other

• The demolished east wing will be rebuilt as a simple building and used as a museum to the attrocities that trump committed and the people and institutions that enabled him. An artist will be commissioned to design a pitch black facade, perhaps in the shape of the old building. It should look out of place and awkward, and stand forever as a sort of black eye on America. To show how the nation was injured and not cover it up. There will be legislation to perpetually fund the museum and make admission free to all.

The future will require a simple understanding - there was not an equivalency here, no two valid sides. The was objective wrong and right. No more pretending

You’re bringing a lot of personal momentum to your responses obviously. My point was clear, state specific issues to allow the potential for specific answers. If you’re moving in good faith, that’s the approach.

The perspective here is one of someone resistant to change, blaming FOSS as an easier scapegoat. Always simplest to blame the tool over the operator… And often, that “dumbshit, broken printer that won’t print!!!” Just wasnt plugged in.

Your rebuttal is borked.

I appreciate you attempting expansion, I will say it is still difficult when you’re asked for specific detail and your response consistently States generalities like:

“lack of support” - meaning what, feature isn’t there at all? Doesn’t display existing tables from uploaded excel docs?

“has serious issues” - meaning… what are they?

“results in issues” - …

“…is borked” - c’mon

and "incredibly slow " - relative to what? Double time of expected from excel? Triple? Extra two seconds per attempt?

You’re using subjective terms that mean people can’t A) determine if you’re problem will impact them as well and B) you’re not describing your perceived issues well enough to allow experts reading along here, now or in the future, to offer you actual solutions or alternatives.

That considered, it makes you come off as a person who doesn’t want their perceived problem solved.

Probably more credibility if you actually give real, specific examples of what you cannot do on Libre Calc that you require?

Rubio slashes the percentage of fit in his shoes by 40%

Again, if you have this energy, direct it at solving the problems you perceive or directly supporting the people who are capable of solving those problems.

Bots are a universal problem, theocratical solutions abound from every different angle, it’s a choice by those in charge of the other places to not implement those solutions. So either lead the movement to keep Lemmy different OR find the person(s) leading and support them with encouragement, funds and/or volunteer your time to make theory work less.

Everything in the trump era is a pain in the ass.

We declare victory over the tarp - unrelated, we are sending 20,000 young people to attack the tarp.

If you truly have energy for this, focus it on growing the platform overall. That naturally adds more and more diversity of opinion. I don’t think the problem you mention is real, I think it’s more a commentary on how you process what you see generally.

Respect the equipment terminology, that is not a “jet”… It’s an A1-69 Class 420 fuck plane

Well said. No shortage of forced panic, sacrificial boogeymen to fixate on for the worst among us

Oh damn, harsh bud… Did Covid radicalize you?

Covid didn’t “radicalize” anyone? It was just an opportunity for bad people, with more typically controlled PR images to that point, to show the world exactly who they had always been.

All these goons also have multiple performative “arguments” over the years to muddy the conversation about how evil they actually are. Vance called trump America’s Hitler, elon basically called trump a pedophile publicly post-doge and at the end of the day, they are all still hanging out ruining the world. None of it was sincere.

Would advise you to stop eating that little trail of curated breadcrumbs they leave for you, it’s a cynical game and they think you’re stupid enough to buy it.

That goon has his DNA all over bluesky, and he has a long history with elon. Cling to semantics if you need to, but the spirit of what I said was true. If they could get away with the optics of dorsey heading bluesky in that “exodus” moment, they would have. But all knew that would leave a bad taste in the public’s mouth and slow/stall adoption, so they had the charade they presented.

SLAMS!

Okay because you know what, first of all! Okay, how dare you? But first of all, okay just, I don’t even have time for this!
