on an entirely unrelated note: trying to set up a device (OnePlus 6) with de-Googled Android: not going to go into the setup process, despite mainly using an iPhone for the past 8 years, i've still `fastboot flash boot.img boot` and `adb sideload lineage-*.zip` more times than i've had hot dinners (even if this time it was a bit more involved as most of the phone's storage was consumed with a NTFS partition)

but i'm pleasantly surprised by just how many apps just work (even without microG).
discord, 1password, even my bank app worked without complaint.

however, issues:
- notifications are really fucking broken (pretty important).
- autofill from password manager is really fucking broken
- my yubikey doesn't work
- the stock keyboard is arse
- i am going to really miss apple pay, and not just for the convenience, having it anonymise my details (especially when paying online) is also nice

and also, it still annoys me that Signal only lets you sign into one device that they classify as 'phone' at a time.

ok, it appears i can work around the signal issue: there's a fork of the signal app called molly which flips the feature flag to 'being able to be a secondary device' to just, always be on

installed thrunderbird and tried to sign into icloud mail

which i can't because my apple account is set to use my yubikey for 2FA... and you can't use 2FA security keys on Android without Google Play Services

spend the time to sync my entire music library over to the thing... only to discover the stock Lineage music app doesn't support Apple Lossless files, which all my music is in
@tay "yo what file types you using for your music?" "Oh i use Unknown"
