Swapping google apps over to fdroid etc apps before changing os is definitely the right way to go.

I reinstalled lineage recently via https://lineage.microg.org/ but have yet to use anything not on fdroid so far. I had to drop my banking apps, and a couple of webmail default apps… not the end of the world. Time will tell if it will remain feasible to keep it that way, future interactions with the government, or businesses might make it annoying (mainly due to ID cr*p), but so far it hasn’t been a problem.
I originally installed lineage via https://wiki.lineageos.org/ then added GApps at the last step, but the google sh*t still being on my phone was not what I wanted.


The installation isn’t that difficult, although the instructions do need to be read carefully. You can stuff it up without killing your phone.
My motorola g84 is running it, as ismy sony xperia xz2
Probably worth watching some installation videos first.


Slop by any other name…


I’m assuming the majority of posts are slop now, there are a couple of dedicated opensourceai subreddits, I would prefer such a thing existed here as well, with a blanket ban in this one.


I only use mutable linux systems, otherwise they never shut up.


Your struggle is very real.


Off course being an ignorant makes someone wrong.

That isn’t user error, that is very deliberate opt in as default, knowing that most people are zombies.
Opted out should be the default, those who wish to use ai should have to opt in, but also lose their right to vote, breed, or drive.


The issue with it is that most people don’t ever look in their settings.


windows and brave… win you do not.


It would be great if ai off was the default, but I definitely appreciate have the option to turn that crap off.


Don’t use windows, problem solved.

I assumed the orange butthole reference was to do with the album cover


Where does it say that this is ai?
