They should focus on beating Brave search before going after Bing, much less Google.

It is possible to get a real cell number from a big name carrier and then port the number to VoIP company to use VoIP service with an original cell number.

Switch phone service to VoIP, cancel cell service, all tracking capabilities is gone.

Does that also work for people who never had data service and is a wi-fi only phone for calling, no cell/mobile service?

For longtevity, I would suggest an X870 board for future CPU release options, 9800x3D for gaming, and 32GB RAM. If you ever decide to go up to a 16 core CPU you should take out the 32GB for 64GB. Don't add an additional 32GB, there's a difference in performance between 4 8GB and 2 32GB.

The GPU is whatever you want because it only takes 10 minutes to replace with a new one.

Any email service that works with K-9/Thunderbird and OpenKeychain.

It connects to proprietary services which makes it not an option. The same situation for Tuta Mail. We can talk after they publish their server source code. Proton is also not an option for the same reasons.

Is there anything like a SimpleX group chat to join for us to talk, or should one be started?

When this comes to the BSD's, it will be interesting to see if there is a significant difference in multimedia. I bought Intel 11th gen over 10th for it's AVX-512.

I will take Intel being sold or going under over cronyism and corporate welfare.

If Intel can't pay their own bills from Intel's money, they can be sold to a private company, file for chapter 11, or go out of business.

I can't speak to that with a familiar level with the code, I can only presume or guess. All I will say is that is why I never install any app from Github or Gitlabs, because there is no third party verification of the code for releases on those sites.

I only use F-Droid after disabling all anti-features in Settings and then install apps that I know are 100% clean from all dependancies.

Download the SimpleX apk from F-Droid website and then run that to see what it says for any difference in the results.

Is that based on the F-Droid version of SimpleX from the native F-Droid repository?
