If google restricts access to its os, like they have already started, all you’ll have is pixel up to 10/11 still supported 10 years from now. They’ve already started by no longer providing device trees in aosp for their phones, so graphene has to work harder to obtain them now. Whereas if you work on lineage, you potentially have a greater number of vendors and potentially new ones ready to open up to draw in new userbase.

Whaaat? Drop the OG free Android distribution that has already supported hundreds of phone models across decades for a Google locked hardware with unknown future support from a vendor just announcing locking down everything they can? What is your logic?

4·23 days agoIndeed. That any imperialist ruler or diplomat gets a peace prize is absurd. Especially from the USA, but any big power would also be absurd.

1·1 month agoExactly. Which is also why I use it as well :)

2·1 month agoI use stremio as well. But I also know Deluge has a plugin allowing you to stream a selected file from a torrent and it works with vlc

8·11 months agoOh, great, my country is in the news again. Oh, wait, it’s bad news, again. Here’s some better news: the students have blocked all the universities and other people are joining the protests in hopes of overthrowing the authoritarian regime. The corruption has reached peak levels and is actually killing people. The government is doing it’s best to stay in power, but no real, mass violence has been applied just yet. People have given up on elections because they are demonstrably fixed and can’t change anything. I don’t know how this will end.

Agree, it didn’t do anything to avoid the obstacle. A human could probably see it as an obstacle and try to swerve to the side, albeit not knowing what it is. Not saying it’s possible to avoid, but some reaction would be made.

1·1 year agoNot sure which country you’re from, but I’ve basically lost the any hope I can influence any policy in my country with ANY attitude. I hope I’m wrong about other countries.

142·1 year agoYes, not gonna happen. You know how many new devices get sold simply because old ones are no longer getting updates/software support? It’s planned obsolescence. No modern country would pass a law like that.
This looks the most promising. I’ll take a closer look. Does it provide a rtsp stream?

2·1 year agoHow about just having a button on a fob/phone which initiates comms, like in the good old days. You can’t relay the signal if there isn’t one till you press the button. But that isn’t sexy and it’s too similar to traditional cars, so they won’t do it.

No, I mean, both graphene and lineage are based on aosp. But graphene supports only one vendor. Lineageos supports many, including google. Why invest in a vendor-locked os and risk loosing it all? I think lineage is a lot more logical choice. And I’m currently running Graphene on a pixel 8, after pixel 7.
