Are you saying you like the big buttons? Because Android 12 is when they were introduced.

No you don't. You used to, and then the WiFi and Data buttons were both put under an Internet button. It's aweful design. All of it.

I haven't tried one, but the banglejs looks comparable to the Pine Time.

Nobody is a user name in the Linux environment. The IP for the port forwarding are to the local host. https://www.reddit.com/r/AndroidQuestions/comments/fcg1re/o_found_an_app_called_nobody/

According to Invizible's instructions, you shouldn't have to port forward to an external IP. https://invizible.net/en/invizible-and-netguard-firewall/

Read You is simple, minimalistic, and works well.

If your country gets warrant happy, wouldn't having a VPN in a more privacy friendly or non-five-eyes country be better? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Five_Eyes

What if you used a federated network?

Do you use Cheogram for messaging? What app do you use for VOIP calls?

Twilio is pumped over at Intel Techniques by Michael Bazzell. They charge $1.15 per month per number, which isn't bad considering it's a fairly reputable company. After signing up for a trial number and going through these long instructions, I was able to make an outgoing call. To get MMS going would require a whole other set of steps (that I have yet to find) just to get it setup, and then you have to go through an MMS verification process with Twilio which looks to be geared towards businesses. In fact, Michael also said on episode 277 how Twilio has been less interested in supporting him and his listeners and appears to be more geared towards businesses. So I guess I'll go bark up one of the other two options from my original post unless someone has any good reasons to do otherwise.

I mainly want it for my resume, rewards programs, and when you go out to eat and they ask for a phone number to text you when your table is ready. Hopefully, I don't run into any issues with it being a VOIP number in those circumstances.

Here's a similar post with a lot of comments. Hopefuly that's helpful. From what I can tell, it's TINA at the moment.

As a GrapheneOS user, google wallet doesn't support tap to pay. Would love to see a solution here.

I was using F-droid until last week. Supposedly Droidify has a newer API and auto updates are supposed to work better, but I haven't noticed a big difference. I still have to go click "update all" as far as I can tell.

Thank you for the feedback. I actually use every OS, so I'm interested in any security and privacy preserving app stores for every OS. I just happen to be going down the Android rabbit hole at the moment. Not to say I wouldn't be interested to hear where others are at on their journey. Cheers!

Thank you! That's exactly what I was looking for.

As a GrapheneOS user, I want to make sure I'm not overwriting graphene files with google files.

Regarding App Lounge, the downloads section in that link says it will only work on their playform. I'm running GrapheneOS.

App - Thunder FTW

I really enjoy the double action swiping to up/down vote or to favorite/reply. Also, you can save your favorite default filter for the main feed.

Are your auto-updates working?
