overview for 03ari

Hey ! I just broke my Pixel 4a (fp reader is dead, screen is flickering, battery health is getting really bad), and i am looking to try out Apple ecosystem. I have a budget of around 300 euros, and i have no problem looking at refurbished devices / secondhand. Here is a list i made (prices are from backmarket, a refurbished website). :

iP11 (around 290 euros)
iP12 Mini (around 310 euros)
iPSE 2020 (around 150 euros)
iPSE 2022 (around 260 euros)

I already have an M1 iPad Pro that i carry around most of the time for work / reading / video calls etc… I’ll be mostly just using iMessage / FaceTime / Maps and answering messages on average social networks with. i think I’ll keep the phone around two years max since I’m almost done with college. Am totally okay with smaller phones. I need to save a bit of money so if you see a better option, tell me!

Thanks for helping me out!

Edit : thx 4 all of ur replies<3 probably gonna get the 12 mini since i love small phones, and Face ID on my iPad Pro is just so great to open Bitwarden haha:)

Edit2: been almost one yr after i got my i12mini, and its rly rly nice, even though battery is the thing i hate the most about it. Will probably try to get the battery pack with it.

What VPN do you use to hide traffic from your ISP? by 03ari in c/privacy@lemmy.ml

Only VPN I would trust is Mullvad

Proton was accused to give access to mails to authorities : https://www.bbc.com/news/technology-58476983

NordVPN and others are usually linked to your email + credit card stuff and you blindly need to trust them

Do you trust Brave company and their products: Browser, Search, VPN, etc..? by 03ari in c/privacy@lemmy.ml

Never trusted them, they just feel like a Opera clone with a "crypto bro" mindset haha

Do you think Android will one day become so restrictive that sideloading (installing apps outside of Playstore) will become extremely limited, or completely banned? by 03ari in c/android@lemmy.world

It won't be possible since even Apple is considering the possibility of sideloading apps because of EU's competition policy legislation. If Google does the same, i guess they'll just take a pretty good fine again

Bitwarden since its open source, easy to use and cloud sync is sooo great
