Would you call their front page vanilla?

In this case its Bondtec that has the issues, not Prusa

Apparently there are also QC issues with the heating coil.

It’s the same thing in Brazil.

At the very least, they are not one of the big tech companies I guess.

Very helpful comment. Thank you for your contribution.

That’s the only thing I use for restaurants!

The second picture if totally giving me Elle Fanning vibes, so I’d say Elle

Fuck flasgforge, but also fuck Amazon. They are one if the worse companies in the world!

If your lights are on, then you know.

Why would you expect a cash injection to make KDE worse?

That’s such a cop out. Good luck to a cop trying to get into my phone. Grapheme is not the only ROM that prevents this.

And as the other comment said, there are companies that are way more ethical. Not perfect due to the system but way better.

And this mubd set of not giving a shit about ethics as long as things work well for you, is what enables companies to be shit and exploit the world.

There are other ROMs with other hardware that provide a similar level of privacy and more than enough security without giving money to google.

Yes they are also not perfect solutions, but they give you flexibility to support better phone manufacturers

There are mch more ethical companies than google to buy phones from, like Fairphone.

And “wayyy” less secure is very debatable. There a some security features missing, but still more than secure enough for the vast majority of users.

I took the question as an alternative to Grapheme, but perhaps you are correct.

And all those OSes you could install. Google Play Services if you want, even sandbox them like Graphene.

The question is, are those missing features actually meaningful enough to support an evil company?

For me they are not.

They are not as secure, but are private and more than secure enough in my opinion.

And some can be used with more ethical phones like the Fairphone.

GOS sometimes feel like a cult to me. GOS is absolutely the only good ROM and everything else is terrible. There is no nuance.

e/os, lineageOS, iodeOS

Which Fairphone, and how’s it working for you?

I have the FP6 with e/os right now. It works pretty well, but I am against some decisions from Murena (like using OpenAI for voice recognition)

I’m looking forward to switching ROMs when there is more support for the FP6

Don’t give money to google by buying Pixel phones. Even buying used, creates demand as people are more likely to keep upgrading every year as they know it will be easy to sell their used Pixels for a good price.
