Wish they'd name and shame the Telecom.

Checkout Toshy. This has been a life saver for me.

I've just switched from an iPhone 12 Pro to Pixel 9 and am on GrapheneOS now. Aside from Signal chat history, everything switched over quite easily. Sandboxed google play services is simply an amazing feature. Rerouting location requests let's me feel a certain level of trust when I use Google Maps now. There are a tonne of little quality of life features too that I don't remember if base Android had back when I used it before; e.g. setting the default language for a specific application.

For using Immich without exposing it to the public, check out Tailscale. It's a private VPN (wireguard) service (it's partially opensource and provides paid tiers, but the free tier is all you'll need; there's an open source server called Headscale, if you need full open source) you can use on your home network that is dead simple to configure. You literally just login on you computer and your phone.

Good. Now get rid of FPTP.

If you're technical at all, self host immich. or you and a few friends could get together and set up a pikapods for immich, it's relatively cheap and I've heard great things about pikapods. I know storing photos shouldn't require technical knowledge, but honestly unless someone you know and trust manages the service, it's hard to know who can abuse your data. I migrated from google photos to immich myself and the app ecosystem (migration tools, mobile apps, web app) are great and provide much of what google photos provided.

Would be great if there was an arm64 Linux build 🥲

In an Apple community too, no less.

Neat. But it’s kind of concerning to see yet another OSS project hitch it’s community resourcing to Discord.

I’ve been seeing this in the All section… what is it?

Imagine an insurance company using data about you that it purchased from FB or Twitter to give you different insurance rates.

Or your social posts or posts tagged of you affecting your credit score or job application or even your rent application.

There are so many scenarios where having your privacy respected would protect you from unnecessary and unfair judgement.

Should check out Memmy or Mlem. Both are following Apollo’s UX
