What I hate the most about the leftist side of the fedi, especially the EU types is the extreme anti-American sentiment, and I'm not talking about hatred for America as a country or the American government. I'm talking about hatred for American people in general.

They just assume that just because we live here that we support all American policy. They think that we automatically support the Israeli invasion of Gaza (despite the fact that even most US republicans are less supportive of Israel) or whatever human-rights violation the US government is participating. Or if you are not indigenous, then they shit on you just for being born on stolen land.

>Oh but you voted these people in that means you are all for it

It should be obvious that voting doesn't work here anymore (or maybe it never did). And even if it did, that doesn't mean that we support everything the government does.

You can hate on America all you want, but please don't hate on the people.

the difference is that people find all kinds of excuses if it's android or whatever made by the big players. if an os is made by someone different it suddenly has to be perfect or is "not ready".

example: the youtube app on android frequently gets into a state where one just can't use the search button anymore. it's there but nothing happens. one has to restart the app.

it's digital stockholm syndrome.

if not t least half of the major services were shit data silos using something like sailfish os (i know, it's not perfectly free) would be no problem. everything native works and has better UI/UX than android. it's the web of shit and hardware manufacturers that make things hard.

There are devices having these issues but there are others that don't so I'd rather not throw everything into one bucket.

I find it more straight forward to talk about limitations than telling people that something isn't "for them yet" as that leaves people in jeopardy for longer and might just underestimate their abilities.

If people don't know something exists they can't even try it.

True DeGoogling means removing Android period.

To me Android is also everything that derives from AOSP, that originates from Google ...

You can't say you're free while you are in the middle of the bridge (because if bridge falls you're dead)

@justsoup @Sturmflut @MuhammadFreeSoftware @eliasr @Tutanota There's also #UbuntuTouch and #SailfishOS as additional alternatives.
