Google Pixel hardware is focused on providing a private relationship between the user (your data and behavioral patterns) and Google.

Depending on your threat model you can flash custom roms to enhance your privacy and security posture.

A lot of folks here seem to be of the "...just flash GrapheneOS and you're good..." crowd but it's not that simple and there are trade-offs that impact usability and user experience.

There are a lot of interesting projects out there to choose from. Best advice is to work-up your real world threat model and do your reasearch.

You may find Louis Rossman's experience with GrapheneOS relevant: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4To-F6W1NT0&t=1

Here's a few links to help get you started - there are many android projects. I am not affiliated nor am I explicitly endorsing any of these projects.

Welp, there's my WTF for the day

I thought the same thing. No one was hurt and maybe some in attendance were actually impacted. And then music... beautiful

St, Xterm, Terminator - depends on hardware and os.

I'm most comfortable when my window manager and terminal emulator are well integrated and keyboard centric.

Aye.

Please silo yourselves.

Love that I can easily switch from phone to laptop when working with Fadein.

Linux makes a fantastic writing / research machine but helping folks make the transition to Linux can be difficult.

Everyone comes at it from a different angle and with a different intensity. Sometimes just letting them explore available options can be what they need. I've found that allowing the transition to be an open, running conversation, can be really helpful and much less stressful. There's a lot to learn, even with Ubuntu, Mint, Fedora, etc..

If you haven't found them already, here's a few personal favorite writing apps/systems (in no particular order) I've enjoyed using over the years.

That's awesome! Really encouraging seeing projects and devs migrate away from closed-source and proprietary systems and features. 💪

Cool tool! Please consider leaving GitHub for any of the numerous FOSS options.

OP isn't ignorant because they're white, they're ignorant because of the impact of their social economic class on their education, life experience, and world view.

Your comment opening with:

"Leave it to a white person to..." Is blatant racism.
