What's up with services providers bricking their products ?

Or is it another attempt to force users to upgrade to a newer phone....

Tried it many times before but it consumes more resources than brave , especially internet data

Partly solved my complex with foss mail clients being ugly designed

You mean Kiwi browser ? Last update on both GitHub and Google Play was on April 2024

I'm using Fennec now and it's so buggy

Now that Xiaomi is making it nearly impossible to unlock bootloader on my phone because it refuses to accept whatever number I provide , Shizuku is probably my last solution... tbh I don't find it worthy for them to try forcing me to stay on their software: my phone is old and outdated , and I don't use most of the bloatware they put on the device

The fact that all of these softwares are owned by one company is creepy , regardless of Israel

Some paid apps actually prevents the user from using it if it's not paid from Google play

[-] chottomatte@lemdro.id 28 points 3 weeks ago

The examples I know are officially published by their orginial developers

Hi....

  • I don't know what to say in the introduction, but in brief I have some questions about Linux, which were formed after trying some distributions on DistroSea and observing Linux communities on the Internet. Can you help with the answer?
  1. I liked Gnome DE interface very much, but whenever I look at the empty workspace after closing an app , I feel that something is missing (sorry, I have been using Windows for almost 15 years). Is there an add on - or any other way - to install some apps on workspace? Or do I have to get used to it as it is ?

  2. I read that Linux is more problematic on laptops than on personal computers, is this true? If so...what are the usual problems and is there a way to avoid them?

  3. Are there any distributions that come with the minimum pre-installed apps ? ... I mean not even a video or music player

  4. If I want to delete a pre-installed app (let's say the default browser), can this be done easily or does it require root, like Android?

  5. Does rooting invalidate the system from obtaining updates?

  6. I read that switching DEs is easy... but how exactly is it done? Something in the settings, or downloading the interface independently, or customizing it to be similar to the other, or something else?

  7. Lazy question : What are wayland and docker? I see a lot of people mentioning them

  • Sorry for the many questions, and thanks in advance

  • It's a Firefox fork with focus on security
  • The equivalent of Librewolf on Android
  • clearly... people use it for security reasons
  • The good thing about it is clearly security , but its focus on privacy comes at the expense of speed ... which is its main disadvantage in my experience
