TLauncher is not considered safe these days AFAIK. Source

Signal on Android has had reproducible builds for years now.

The ONLY data Signal stores about you is your phone number, most recent registration time/date and most recent login time/date. They don't know who you're messaging or when you're messaging them AFAIK.

You can see this for yourself at signal.org/bigbrother

Looks like your 'y' key isn't working. Might wanna look into it.

The @ is only required for making posts on Lemmy from Mastodon, not replies AFAIK.

I use Ecosia, it plants trees with the profits from its ad revenue! Results are sourced from Bing and Google.

This worked, thanks!

Solution: Go to Settings > Home > Enable Shortcuts > Go to a new tab > Google will be pinned by default, hover over the Google icon > Click on the 3 dots menu > Unpin

Yes, my default search engine is Ecosia.

I haven't changed it manually though, I installed their extension and it changed the default; if this matters in any way.

You don't need internet to access the passwords stored in Bitwarden if you have their local clients installed. It stores an encrypted copy of your database locally to your device which syncs (updates) over the internet.

I'm sorry if I sound naive but what's wrong with using a mobile?

I thought people use traditional music players like iPod and Tangara only because of their retro feel, is there something else to it?

They aren't E2EE by default. You have to enable it manually.

In my country, the state provides you with legal representation if you're unable to afford it on your own. Is that not the case in other countries (USA and Europe specifically)?
