Yes. As a Gnome user is agree.

I only dislike it for German. My other languages are Spanish and English, which have the same layout minus one extra key not even used in English. But in German Z and Y change places, so that always trips me up.

Having to remember to switch to the different language when writing a bilingual email is also annoying and does happen somewhat more often than you'd imagine.

Oh I just mean the Android versions OEMs ship. Most of these lock more stuff down. That's all I meant.

I think China's worse. In many cases much worse, in some cases only a bit worse. But I do not excuse America.

Look at Xinjang. The Uyghurs are facing cultural eradication. Look at African Americans. Their situation is still bad and not ok! But it is the lesser evil when you compare what the US does to their minorities compared to what China does to theirs

😂

I use OpenBoard (it's available on fDroid. Maybe the play store too).

I don't know if it's the best but I like it. If you type in multiple languages you do need to hit a "language switcher" key on the keyboard to switch to the autocorrect for that language. A very minor complaint. Otherwise it's great.

And it will learn swear words. No more ducking ducks.

Abandon Chrome and Chromium en masse and this will go away. But normies suck.

This is true. Hence why garbage men are paid quite a lot. Low skill but a very difficult job.

Didn't swiftpad or whatever its called send every key pressed to Microsoft?

Not a China shill. China is horrible. Microsoft less so as they don't commit genocide in slow motion. But still, I think this sort of thing is more common than we think.

Use FOSS.

Can't proper AOSP delete system apps? I know essentially all phones come locked down but is there anything in base Android itself that precludes this? Just grab the su binary and Bob's your uncle.

Good point. A lost opportunity there.

No you're not. I mean, I know these things existed, but I had never made any effort to use them or even find out how they worked.

It's a lot like Duolingo I think. The core functionality of the product is there and is good, but they insist on shoving coins and gems and new avatars down your throat. I don't care! I just want to study a language or discuss a topic. Good lord.

Yup it is. There are a lot of communist techie people I guess. I still generally state my political opinions here though. Let them be downvoted.

Nah, for everything.

Bingo! He's a New-York-based cinematographer. You hit the nail on the head. 😂

LibreWolf manages. But the idea behind Brave was to make a for-profit company.

I really hope the EU requires manufacturers to allow a bootloader unlock. Apple would shit themselves.

Honestly I don't care who or what he personally donated to. But the ad model is the problem for me.

Yeah, that's what I was saying.

In Spain we do have non-EU people, but oftentimes they come here, live in Spain "irregularly" at some point, and then manage to get residency through means other than an employer sponsoring them. That might not be the case everywhere though.

Yes. A lot of Linux folks hate Apple because they are every bit slimey as Windows but hide behind a veneer of respectability due to higher-end nature of the market they target. So a bunch of yuppies shill for them.

I have an American cousin who refuses to contact me on either WhatsApp, Signal, or Telegram (I gave him three fucking' options) because "I only trust Apple with my contacts list "

Ok, well I'm not spending a euro-per SMS, so we won't casually chat from time to time. Goodbye.

I might be a bit jaded.
