I read somewhere they’d be releasing the list of witnesses on July 20th

I’m scared of clowns

I was thinking in a way similar to how GrapheneOS handles Google Play Services. But the technicalities of it being a possibility are outside my scope of understanding.

I think it would he awesome if someone could reverse engineer Android Auto and rewrite an open source implementation.

There’s also Skiff worth checking out for email. Their work is looking really good. They’re still in an early development stage but from my testing, it looks good.

Their company is in the USA however.

I am not sure. I have yet to find a good FOSS Android torrent client. I have experienced annoying bugs and crashing with all them that I have tested and LibreTorrent seems to be the most stable.

DiWhy?

Grilled cheese - American cheese is the only way i enjoy a grilled cheese. Also, Black Forest ham and American cheese sandwich with lettuce tomato and mayo on a baguette or other real tasting bread.

I have always lurked Reddit, I have never made an account. With Lemmy, I contribute instead of lurk as I feel I have a part to play in it’s early growth for it to succeed. But that being said, I occasionally check the front page and a few specific subreddits but not quite as frequently since I joined Lemmy.

Oh, and when I do, I use LibReddit to view reddit, so nothing even official.

Oh! I got some great recommendations!

I use:

• ViMusic for music (free, don’t quote me but I believe it uses Spotify and YouTube APIs for music?)
• OpenBoard for keyboard (I found a GitHub Fork that included swipe to text but can’t remember the name - doesn’t work great anyways)
• Checkout LibreTube as an alternative to NewPipe
• LibreTorrent for torrenting (kinda buggy sometimes but better than any other FOSS alternatives)
• UntrackMe for redirecting site links to privacy-friendly frontends (YouTube->Piped, Reddit->libreddit, etc)
• Quillnote for notes (its simply the best, I have tried a lot of other note apps)
• Checkout Magic Earth (it’s not FOSS but it takes a strong stance on privacy and uses OpenStreetMaps)
• Trusty ol’ VLC Media Player

I contribute where I can, nothing significant.

However, nothing beats Apple maps IMO. I have an iPhone which I hotspot data to and basically only use it as a GPS when driving. I can’t use my Android device as I prefer using Apple CarPlay and GrapheneOS does not support Android Auto.

I use Magic Earth or OSMand when I don’t have my iPhone with me.

Favorite? Hm… I would have to say Codeigniter (PHP framework) but I love these projects as well: Linux/GNU, VLC, LibreOffice, qBittorrent, VSCodium, Filezilla, GIMP, Firefox, Wireguard, GrapheneOS, Matrix, F-Droid.

If I won the lottery I’d donate to these projects or their respective foundations.

Great, more bots… Did they fix the horrible bot problem? I haven’t played in 6+ months due to this.
