I do not have a good enough internet connection to download local modals (Very unstable and slow). Downloading even an OS ISO file is not possible for me and i download them via friends. I don't think anyone would accept my request to download a 10GB+ file

Bruv it looks like it was made by a 10 year old ๐Ÿ˜ญ

 

And no i do not have the privilege of running a local model. I have heard of a AI called Maple and tried it out, it was pretty limited to the point that it was a deal breaker (25 messages per week cap). I would like to know more services

Samsung's phones are pretty superior but the software is pretty bloated. And i don't think anyone should trust Nothing anymore because of all the controversies going around.

Google pixels on the other hand has a good bloat free OS. Also i think those 911 call failures and overheating issues that you mentioned might get fixed via a new update. I think you should go with the Pixel 10 Pro, You could also consider installing GrapheneOS on that bad boy.

Use Brave search, It has a great UI and has good search indexing

To the name to the app to the logo, it's just perfection

These are some practices which worked for me, You can adjust them to match your preferences. Feel free to add your own in the comments


  1. If you are forced to use something that is privacy invasive, Make it isolated from your actual profile. (Ex- Using a 2nd Browser profile, Using an alias to signup)

  1. Always use the services that you use from their official clients. Don't blindly trust 3rd party clients just because they claim that they are "more private", Do some research before using it.

  1. Don't mix up your work life with your personal life. Consider getting a second phone just for work purposes or you could use a second profile for work purposes if your phone has the ability to create multiple user profiles.

  1. Keep a habit of clearing the browser data once in a while. (You can make your browser automatically clear the browser data when closing but it can be kinda annoying when you have to log back into websites everytime)

  1. Strip away the metadata of your photos and documents when sharing them.

  1. Check connected apps/services regularly and revoke unused ones. (on Discord, GitHub, Matrix and etc.)

  1. Audit app permissions regularly (Some apps adds in new permissions or re-enables permissions over updates)

The old #3 tip got removed (The password one) because it served no additional protection and was pretty annoying. It was a mistake by me, sorry

I tried it out on my laptop that's running Fedora and so far it's great. it's a shame that the development of it has ended.

I'm thinking of using Outertune when i get myself a pixel and install GrapheneOS on it.

I'm fine if it's two separate services for the two.
