Sure, to avoid costs...
They really don't see the connection with the trade war, buy european movement, boycott america movement, trump presidency in general... Really? Or could it be the editor told them not to mention it?

Just made a Lemmy account today, trying to rid myself of reddit. Changed toothpaste already. Will change shampoo, ketchup, laptop os to linux, phone os hopefully to grapheneos... just some examples. Never ever again to mcd, bk, kfc... They suck so bad anyway. As does pizza hut and subway

So jussi
It means jussi bag. Jussi is a boy's name. It's not jussi's bag, that would be jussin pussi. It's pronounced not like you think but instead like... idk actually how to describe it

Everyone knows all the apps on your phone
Very scary stuff.
Wondering how the android alternatives deal with this, does it work on grapheneos, e os, calyxos?

7 simple things I always do on Android to protect my privacy [and reduce being monetized by Google et al.]
Can recommend GrapheneOS. Very nice experience. You would think it is more work, but I feel it was less due to not having Google suggest some nasty stuff constantly during install and ever after. Everything works for me. Check your own banking app works from the list they keep and if it does, go for it!

Has anyone switched to Jolla C2 / SailfishOS?
I recently got a used Pixel and GrapheneOS. Can recommend, although the "needs a pixel" part is a bit stupid. Jump was super easy. No constant scamming the user during the installation process and after...
Hoping we get a non google EU alternative soon, but this works for me for now.

Just that? An open source HTML minifier probably bundled with a miner.

Yes. I got a spotless used pixel. But it is a huge paradox to have to get a Google phone.

Sure, it is a win. And thank you for the wise words.
But to me it seems that many are looking to reduce dependency on US tech.
Unfortunately, world is such state that a little paranoia is warranted. If Snowden was not a wakeup call, now I finally feel there is a real movement to try to reduce the dependency. Keep in mind that the US currently threatens EU with occupation of Greenland and sides with our enemy.
But all that said, thank you again, kind stranger.
