I got it for free. It used to be my Gran's.

Possibly, but for the sake of sideloading I'd may as well just buy an Android.

Wasn't my choice. I was 10.

Something Android has had since version 1.0: the ability to install apps from places other than the App Store.

Time to get an Android, I guess.

I use master because I'm nostalgic. If it matters that much, though, I'll start using trunk (like we used to back in the days of SVN).

Ha! Yeah, I remember that phase. I was planning to install LXDE as my first distro, simply because I thought the wallpaper looked cool.

Of course it can. Man, technology just keeps getting better and better! /s

I use Reddit via one of three frontends (kddit, Eddrit, and Remini).

Some of my known haunts include:

Since Old Reddit will be dead soon, have a look at kddit and Eddrit. They're like Libreddit, but not blocked (yet). However, you should try to avoid using them, as they get ratelimited quite easily.

Yeah, I think they go into discovery mode until they find a previously-paired device when you turn them on.

I'll double-check the manual.

NoScript generally helps this. No JS means no uBo detection.

I've just transferred all of my serious projects on Codeberg over to a separate organisation, and I've noticed that there are now only two mediocre repos on my main profile. Does anyone have any ideas for simple, handy things I could build to flesh it out?

I code mainly in Python, I know HTML (but not JS), I regularly use Bash and Zsh, and I am learning C++.

 

I've heard and read recently about a warrant that shows that the US government is monitoring push notifications on iOS and Android. This is possible because push notifications mostly work remotely, using "push notification post office" servers at Apple and Google.

I am aware that certain apps; such as Threema, Signal, Proton, Tuta, and others; use their own servers for push, but not all apps will do this. If I was to run a deGoogled Android ROM or an alternative mobile OS, how would push notifications be handled? And is there an option that doesn't involve a central server at all?
