Proud to announce no more physical #spyware from #Google in my pocket!
Success in flashing Ubuntu Touch @ubports to my #Pixel3a phone.
Took all day and was frustrating, but I think the peace of mind will be well worth it.

Still need to finish porting my apps, and learn the new #ubuntu interfaces

Google's documentation pages have way too many 404 links.

Looking into protecting myself via flashing #graphene_os on my #Pixel3a - which iirc I paid $500 for and still use daily for everything

My phone is now apparently only worth $12, and will continue to spy on me because its "out of support" - even for GrapheneOS @GrapheneOS

I realize the technical security reasons for this, but like, I still use my Pixel3a for gaming and other high intensity activities

There does not seem to be any options;
I cannot afford to upgrade

Raz na wozie, raz pod wozem... Nie każdy projekt zawsze się udaje, u mnie nie wypalił pomysł z instalacją Ubuntu Touch na Pixelu 3a. Dlaczego? Wszystkiego można dowiedzieć się z najnowszego wpisu:

Linux w kieszeni - Smartfon z Ubuntu Touch (nieudana próba)

Czasami projekty nie idą po naszej myśli. Ważne jest jednak to, by umieć czerpać z nieudanych prób cenne doświadczenie.

@dploeger @lazarus @hannsr zum ausprobieren lohnt sich sicherlich auch ein google #pixel3a mit @postmarketOS kostet gebraucht ca. 70 euro. ich daily drive das seit geraumer zeit und bin sehr zufrieden (bis auf die kamera, die ist noch recht crappy). verwende allerdings auch nur @signalapp als messenger (als desktopversion), k.a. wie es,mit whatsapp usw. aussieht.

@michaelharley @debacle @TotalSonic i daily drive a google #pixel3a with #postmarketos and it is absolutely daily-driveable (if you don't need gps, thats the one thing not working, everything else works). however, the quality of the camera is bad, but i hope this will constantly improve in the near future:)

Dear #linuxmobile community, my linux-phone-as-daily-driver-journey took me from 2years of #librem5 (everything functions, but way to slow & outdated software) to 1year of #op6t (perfect phone - except that calling is not reliable:D) to some months of the #pixel3a now. feels like this could be the happy end of my journey, because you can actually use it as a fast-enough phone!:) a minor thing is however the missing gps: does anybody know if that can be fixed? or is it a hardware thing?

#Kuroko is now in the edge/community repo on #AlpineLinux and #postmarketOS officially!

I’m the sole maintainer of Kuroko on #Alpine!

Here’s me installing it on a fresh copy of #pmOS on a #Pixel3A to celebrate!

Thanks the person on my original #Mastodon post for convincing me and the Alpine #aports team.

I did #Fedi! The joke is now reality. Please #boost as this is a big achievement for me!!!

J'ai remplacé mon téléphone #Pixel3a par un #Pixel8. À cinq ans d'intervalle, on a beaucoup gagné en qualité photo, et c'est ce qui avait motivé ce changement, mais comment a-t-on pu perdre autant en ergonomie ? L'appareil est plus lourd et imposant, le lecteur d'empreinte sous l'écran est moins précis, et la navigation par gestes moins pratique mais quasi obligatoire sur une dalle aussi grande. Et dire que ce modèle est considéré comme l'un des plus compacts…
