Total Sonic MediaThis is some bs. If AOSP development is made less publicly accessible it does NOT " simplify things for developers" but rather it hinders it for de-googled privacy respecting ROMs and their device ports. The need for continued and ramped up efforts developing alternative mobile OS's, like Ubuntu Touch, Sailfish OS, Droidian, Mobian, Postmarket, etc. is even more apparent with this move by Google. <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/linuxmobile" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#linuxmobile</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/degoogled" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#degoogled</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/android" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#android</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/aosp" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#aosp</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/ubuntutouch" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ubuntutouch</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/sailfishos" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#sailfishos</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/mobian" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#mobian</a><a href="https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2025/03/google-makes-android-development-private-will-continue-open-source-releases/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2025/03/google-makes-android-development-private-will-continue-open-source-releases/</a>

They use proper open source Android and connect to no Google servers and gives them no data. But I thought installing de-googled android was beyond me but now I see you can buy a de-googled Samsung A5 for £93 (UK) so I'm giving it a go. It won't run apps requiring GPS but so long as I have Firefox, Signal, Mastodon, Bluesky I will be ok. I might put a cheap sim in my old phone in case I need map

:fedora: :freebsd: :archlinux:Yesterday I wanted to install Arch Linux on my Beelink SER7 again after many years, because in the spirit of digital minimalism Arch would actually be perfect for this: you only install the few packages that you really need and no more. That way you have an absolutely lean system.BUT: I have not been able to connect and set up my WLAN multifunction printer from Fucking HP! That is more than frustrating. Since HP is a data protection nightmare anyway, I've been planning to switch to another manufacturer as soon as the last ink is used up.My question: Epson or Brother?
