But Quick Share isn’t actually part of AOSP is it? :(

Looks like everyone will have to implement this for themselves and it’ll be a mess.

I take it this is Japan… ;)

I can hear the lobbyists (both civil society and big tech, mainly the big tech ones) marching towards Brussels right now. This will be as heated as the Digital Markets Act.

Fighting is expected to flare up again next year, when the Commission wants to present an advertising-focused piece of legislation called the Digital Fairness Act. The executive has stated that the rulebook will help protect consumers online, including from manipulative design or unfair personalization.

Yeah, Zorin did this recently too. They made some good arguments on why Mozilla’s trustworthiness has nosedived these past few years, but awkwardly centered on a ToS change that didn’t really amount to much.

They didn’t make a case for why Brave is more trustworthy, though… (and I’m not sure one can)

Thank you so much for reporting back :D

Yup, that’s it.

It’s the good old network effect. Telekom appears to be kind of expensive but getting an eSIM in general appears to be a valid (and likely cheaper) option.

That’s very helpful, thanks!

Hm, was expecting there to be some kind of artificial hurdle preventing me from getting a foreign SIM. But looks like I can just choose any SIM I like (read: minimal top up fees) from a country without annoying KYC regulations. The shipping fees to Germany for the shop linked above are reasonable.

Will report back if I find a cheaper deal in case someone else is interested. Thanks!

Thanks for this, looks like a great resource.

/e/OS is a good option to regain privacy from Google, but arguably does some things worse in terms of security than stock.

You can find a good comparison here.

For the Fairphone 5, I’d recommend CalyxOS as soon as they’re back from their hiatus. In the meantime, might as well stick with stock.
