So I’ve done a bit of research on this and I don’t think what you say here is the most accurate.

LineageOS doesn’t include any Google apps or services by default, nor does it include MicroG. (It does give an optional step to flash a GApps package in the official install guides, but this can be skipped no problem)

LineageOS does use proprietary Google BLOBs for AGPS services and wifi captive portal detection, both of which are anonymised by the nature of the protocols used. But more importantly, /e/ OS also uses these too, so /e/ shouldn’t be ranked any higher than LineageOS is

Hey, don’t be sexist… They also let women stare at boobs discreetly

No, you can use your own account if you like but the “default” usage is to log in anonymously

Sorry, I’m confused here, why do you need to make a Google account?

I wouldn’t have minded using their app instead, but I don’t have the Play Store on my phone (I’m on GOS)

Any reason why you aren’t just using the Aurora store?

I’ve been using Qwant for about a year now, they and Ecosia built their own EU based index a while ago. I’ve been pretty happy with it

They did introduce an AI overview thing a few months back, but it can be permanently turned off with two clicks

Wasn’t Esperanto made by a Polish dude?

Wait, people are actually out here daily driving the default Lemmy web UI instead of using their own client?

i hate that so many tools nowadays want you to curl | sh for installing

Using NixOS has the advantage of making me not want to touch these tools. If I can’t install it reproducibly with Nix, I’ll just look for an alternative :)

Thank you for your work on this project!

I’m on degoogled lineage OS and I have 2 banking apps that both work.

Only thing I miss really is having contactless payments, but I just carry my wallet around again like I used to and use my card

Higher chance for paper jams to occur maybe?

The DSi had a built-in browser, the DS and DS Lite require a game card plus a memory expansion pack to use a browser. Even at the time, website support was spotty at best so I dread to think how a browser based on Opera 8.5 from 2006 would work on the modern web

Wait, that’s actually a very good point. I didn’t think of that!

On my homelab I don’t mind so much as I have 64gb of ram and and 8tb of storage, but on my vps I want everything to be relatively lightweight

I already have it up and running! They have a good docker-compose example on their site.

As for monitoring, my approach is to use it and if it works, then there’s nothing to worry about 😅

Thanks, I decided to go with Slink. It looks lightweight enough, easy to set up and while not quite as minimal as I was imagining, that image resize ability when generating shared links could come in useful

I would like the option to be able to upload images from a multitude of devices like my phone or even a university PC if necessary. I don’t want to have to worry about setting up public key access on every device I might reasonably want to use.

I’m a developer and have daily driven Linux for nearly 3 years, so I’m beyond familiar with terminal usage, but scp isn’t exactly what I’d call a pleasent or convenient command. Every time I have to use it my immediate mood is ugh >:( not yippee :)

You might still want to double check its the right version as the degoogled version is also distributed in the github releases alongside the “full” version.

If the package name is `com.eddyizm.degoogled.tempus" it’s the wrong one and won’t be compatible with android auto
