Naja da würde ich eher das Gegenteil behaupten, wenn man mitbekommt welche Deals da laufen.

Außerdem finde ich gut, dass es so eine Institution wie die BaFin gibt. Gerade im Finanzbereich sollte es immer eine strenge Regulierung geben.

Aus persönlicher Erfahrung ohne BaFin hätte ich nie nach über einem Jahr Ärger mit TradeRepublic meinen fehlenden Depotübertrag bekommen, seither nehme ich stark abstand von solchen Neobrokern und Banken.

I am thankful for reddit becoming a mess and Trump made me ditch american companies anyway.

Otherwise I never would have discovered Lemmy.

With Google Pixel you should be able to install Graphene OS or e/Os to degoogle your phone.

And if your Google Pixel stops working in a few years you still can switch then to Fairphone.

Sorry put the reply under wrong comment. Didn't mean your original post.

Sorry but you seem to be mixing up privacy and security a couple of times. Those are 2 different things.

As you suggested I tried to search about those security issues, but i could not find anything regarding indepent security audits. I would be interested in it, if you have the links.

This article from Golem is from 2020, so not sure if this is still up to date today. I could find something regarding the browser being an issue and the source from the app lounge.

Where are you forced to use the Murena Cloud? I did not have to make an account of anything. I created a folder for all their preinstalled apps and put them there, as they don't look great. I heard there was an issue with TTS going to OpenAI, maybe you mean that.

To me after reading into degoogling the last couple of months, there seems to be an exchange of accusations going on between Graphene and e/OS. It might be because both support Google Pixel and they fear about market share.

In my opinion there is enough for both of them and this toxic behaviour is not helping anybody, just the two big ones Android and iOS. I really don't like the toxic sound mainly coming from the Graphene community, that their solution is the only true one. Which to me seems a bit odd, when they still relying on Google. I am interested to see who their 2nd Hardware supplier will be in the future.

As I see it you can simply summarize it this way: You want privacy without relying on Google --> e/OS You want privacy and security but don't mind using Google --> Graphene OS

For me I am currently using e/OS, as I don't want to give google any money for a pixel. I might see if the prices drop for a cheap used one to try Graphene.

I am fully aware that e/OS is not as secure as Graphene, but I am no longer relying on Google. But to me this is the compromise I am willing to take.

Unfortunately not, I only used AudD so far.

I tested it with all my stuff I had in my Shazam library and it recognised everything, so I kept the default settings.

Regarding the notifications, if it turns up and you long press on it, you get into the settings and can turn it off. Somehow had to do it couple of times but now since more then a week I don't get them anymore.

Yeah I agree with you, they probbaly thought would be a nice feature to make people aware of tracking. But as nearly every up has dozens of trackers it gets annoying.

For me the summary on the left page is enough.

Shazam --> Audile

Microsoft Authenticator --> Aegis

Password Manager --> KeepassDX( I use Syncthing to keep it up to date across my devices

Weather App --> Cirrus

Task Manager --> Task.org

To use Google Maps links --> GeoShare

In general there are a lot of good Apps on F-Droid. To keep it that way, please read this: KeepAndroidOpen

Otherwise all those beautiful Apps from F-Droid will disappear.

Ah thank you very much for enlighten me about Graphene OS, that so far the best description I have seen.

Used Aurora before on Android too.

I probably will wait until they find a way to not be dependent on Google services, as I want them to have no data at all, if I have the chance to do it.

Hopefully there will be more alternatives in the future. But we will see where it will go with Google trying to stop side loading.

Does it mean that you basically cannot use apps then, which require Google Services? Or how does it exactly work there?

Currently trying e/Os and wanted to look into Graphene and Lineage to see the which one works the best. I just don't want to use anything from google.

I really can recommend Hanwag as hiking boots very durable. I also use often Avocadostore looking for European made shoes.

Unfortunately cannot recommend any specific winter boots, as I my old ones are still solid and not made in the EU.
