Wow that is such a bad idea... I... I'm honestly speechless. Who thought if that? I mean...

I don't believe that is legal. That's just absolutely ridiculous.

I guess that's also one positive aspect of Fairphone: They do officially cooperate with certain custom ROMs such as /e/os and IodeOS, and also make it significantly easier for not-officially-supported custom ROMs to exist.

Yeah, I largely agree with that. With regards to the schematics it unfortunatrly appears they are unable to release everything due to legal reasons though.

A sad day for reddit... Lemmy, here we come!

Well, I'd expect so. Since it's open source and federated a corporate dick move as seen with reddit won't be easily possible here. If an admin goes rogue you can simply switch to a different instance and still enjoy the same communities, and if the developers/maintainers decided to ignore the community's wishes and go in some absurd direction with the project we'd simply see a lemmy fork maintained by a different team appear.

Looking forward to the update. Jerboa for Android as available on F-Droid has 0.18 as a minimum requirement. Really wanna get that one set up for this Account.

To add to that, Fairphone is also regularly criticized that they're struggling to keep up full support for devices that are just a few years old. But unfortunately most of their issues are not their but their suppliers fault. Once the manufacturer of a specific component stops Firmware support for that component, it gets really hard to provide fixes and support once firmware-related issues arise. So that's more of a general smartphone-industry-problem, in that the life cycles of the 'big players' are much to short, giving hardware-manufacturers an incentive to stop firmware support for older components quite quickly.

I guess we have to differentiate between issues that Fairphone has control over, and issues that Fairphone is simply not big enough to solve on it's own.

Any chance, dass es sich einfach nur um preliminary copy-paste der Reddit APP Berechtigungen handelt?

Where?

For the most recent example check out this Forum thread regarding the Fingerpringt sensor issues of the Fairphone 3(+) with Android 13, due to the sensor's manufacturer having ceased support for the sensor and Google having updated its security policy.
