What can we do
We get it, billionaires bad, but it's in the effing tweet "what they can do as individual". All the options listed are solid.

European alternatives to non-European apps (2.0)
Where's Signal (or molly if you need foss)? Signal is an non-profit organisation, so I'd say it can hardly be branded 'from' anywhere unless you're talking about servers location but then...

EU elections 2024 live: Emmanuel Macron dissolves French parliament and calls snap elections after huge far-right gains
Reply in thread
Comparing it to Chirac's situation is downplaying how crazy te move is right now. Can you imagine how fucked up this is? Like "oh, the far right has more than twice as many votes as we got, it must be some sort of big misclick situation, lets check it out !"

Je veux pas insinuer que tu es naïf/naïve, mais c'est absolument certains oui.
Je te laisse par exemple (et au hasard) lire la fiche wiki de Yaël Braun Pivet (c'est juste la président de l'AN depuis 2022), notamment sa situation familiale. Ce n'est pas un cas isolé.

That's be cause what u/balinares forgot to mention is that Macron has been steadily giving the far right his (barely disguized) support by leading policies that are very well aligned with far right ideas, and he has continuously portrayed lefists as crazy. Oh and he also kept setting up debates between his party and the far right leaders, putting them in some sort of 'legitimate' position (like there's been a debate between our prime minister and the head of the far right list for these election, there was absolutely no reason to do it, but hey who give a crap about fairplay uh?). Oh and also we now have our own fox news (cnews here), broadcasting on a public network, but not respecting there duty to remain neutral. But no wonders why, since these media are owned by a far right billionaire.
TLDR: Macron carefully set the conditions for the far right to win these election by portraying them as the only opposition, and now he's all whiny that surprise surprise, the far right is aslo far ahead.

The baratza encore is also on my list, but it's the only electric grinder on it. I'm not set yet, but I think a manual is nice, and easier to carry on a trip. Thank you very much for this detailed review, it's much appreciated and I'll take it into consideration!

Should I upgrade to Mint 21 Vanessa?
Reply in thread
Thanks for the advice, it does have an SD slot, but I just tried and the SD is not detected.Tbh, I may have messed it up by trying many things while trying to flash lineage on an old phone that was not detected. I should probably go ask for help on a Linux forum and try to get this fixed before upgrading.

7 Things You Should Know Before Switching to GrapheneOS

I mean it may be pretty well done and thus 'safe' (curious if said app is open source?), but it sounds like you, as an individual, are tracked for most of your activities. Is cash still a mainstream option for payment?
Also, it's probably a costly stretch and really depends on your threat model, but could still have a phone with said app for any activity that requires it, and another one running GOS for a more private use.
