  • Sorry, Mike, are you really going to gaslight the opposition into overlooking those "frivolous" details of Project 2025? Let's not mention that Trump will now have powers like a king, and through this reshaping of government, it will erode worker rights and social protections, steer the country towards an ideologically driven agenda that could harm economic stability, national security, and cultural diversity. Its emphasis on loyalty over expertise, the potential for biased policy influence, and the disregard for democratic norms and legal safeguards entirely.

    Sounds like something we all should be worried about, Mike.

  • I love this app. I've been using it for at least a year now. It's my number one app on my phone for music without ads, a Spotify replacement of sorts.

    However, it does have moments where it cycles endlessly on a search result, possibly due to an issue with YouTube's API. Sometimes, if I'm away from my phone, I find it stuck in a searching pattern. All-round, it's an awesome replacement for Spotify.

  • Wouldn't it be great if independent auditors were standard, responsible for holding companies accountable for their data security practices, coupled with a rating system akin to those used in the banking sector? Before paying for a service, consumers would be aware of how secure the service is. Say A++ or AAA.

    It would be a pain in Silicon Valley's ass for sure, but it would go a long way toward giving consumers peace of mind and bringing about a whole new industry in the process.

  • I'm all for privacy, but I'm not all for using the comment section to talk about abortion rights. Sure there is some overlap, but the comment section here seems to show the ease of which the human psyche can get distracted, these tangential bickerings are the reason big data is so effortlessly steam rolling us.

  • Have you considered using a sandbox app such as Insular which is available on F-droid or Shelter.

    Shelter creates a work profile, isolating apps installed in this profile from the mainland. Shelter has the advantage of supporting per-site data isolation with Android 13, which achieves the same goal as sandboxing.

    You can isolate entirely your contacts from being seen by other apps if set up correctly. Furthermore, Shelter allows for a VPN only for the work profile, which is a useful feature for enhancing privacy.

    I have used an app called island in the past, but sadly it's been discontinued,it was great as it allowed a VPN both outside and inside the sandbox.
