  For example https://androidauthority.com/grapheneos-3287030/ > "Even if you stomach the Pixel-only requirement" I have not and will not stomach that at all, nope! https://grapheneos.org/faq#supported-devices Nope! I wasn't paying attention, but if I remember, Alphabet/Google was funded to deploy/release Android operating system, and they also were financed to deploy some hardware phones before disappearing to let... - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

  I'm sure you did your research. I'm writing for other readers who are interested. There are a few alternatives, more can be found but this is a selection of the most prominent offerings. /e/OS: https://e.foundation/e-os/ GrapheneOS: https://grapheneos.org/ LineageOS: https://lineageos.org/ CalyxOS: https://calyxos.org/ PostmarketOS (based on Alpine Linux rather than Android): https://postmarketos.org/ (for some... - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago

• us What's a good (under $500, preferably lower than $200 though) android for geeks?

  Ironically, Pixels are the best for de-Googling. GrapheneOS requires a Pixel, as does CalyxOS for the most part. If you don't want your money going to Google, a used/refurb Pixel gets around that in my opinion. Source: 12 months ago

• Youtube Premium via VPN

  Oh I see makes sense, one closed system needs another 😅 but if you look at Android, look at https://grapheneos.org/ and https://calyxos.org/. Source: about 1 year ago

• Android vs Apple phones

  I agree with your point, but wanted to ask, have you considered using a device with a degoogled AOSP-based OS like GrapheneOS or CalyxOS? Source: about 1 year ago

• Articles about people finding love

  I can't help but feel jealous and bitter when I come across a news article or whisper.sh message about how people found their true love. Some stories for example about a lady who was nearly murdered by her abusive ex and eventually married the paramedic that saved her life. Also a story about a man about to commit suicide only to receive a mysterious phone call from someone who would eventually become his wife. Source: about 2 years ago

• Anonymous social media app Whisper has been taken off the Google Play Store

  Tbh, I'm surprised it took this long for the app to be taken down. It was 99% scammers. You can verify the app has been taken down by visiting their website and clicking get app. The play store doesn't take you to link to download it and if you search for "whisper," it doesn't show up at all. It use to be the first search result. Source: about 2 years ago

• A post from the Anti-Feminist subreddit.

  It's probably because these things were gotten from the Whisper app. Source: over 2 years ago

• Protect your art! Watermark it!

  You do get a lot of scraper sites, but then you also get some weird ones. Someone used one of my drawings as a backdrop to a confession on whisper.sh. Pixsy found it. They also found a site that was offering free HD wallpaper downloads (no idea where they would have gotten an HD image file since I don't post those just anywhere) and they had one of my paintings on their site.

• Interesting Whisper exchange

  I don't know about a Whisper dating app but there's a whisper.sh website where people are anonymous and do confessions and venting and such. Careful, some of the stuff there is dirty. Source: almost 3 years ago
