I understand that it was an honest mistake to read as “maga”, but you have to stop viewing the world through politics or have a phrase make your mind jump immediately to a political meaning of the phrase

Pixel 5a is the last phone with a 3.5" headphone jack.

If you look through Braxman’s content history, he never does a video showing how to flash a phone, he only talks about it. You can do a search and from random videos from people you’ve never seen before doing step by step showing how to unlock a phone, flash it, and lock bootloader, Braxman shows nothing.

Look at hist website from 1995. He uses buzzwords. There are free website builder tools that can make a website more flashy than his. I question his skill level of what he can do vs what he has someone else do and then he takes the credit to sell.

It would be cheaper to buy any Pixel and then flash any custom ROM yourself, rather than pay an extra $100 for flashed phone that you can do in 10 minutes.

I flash GrapheneOS for free because I only touch the computer for a few steps, the rest of it is waiting for the installer to finish and automatically reboot phone.

PBS and NPR do sell a partisian message, they are not for anybody and everybody to speak. NPR and PBS only allow presentations from those who have the correct opinions and views.

That would be good for government to cut funding. Users should give away their own cash to support the projects.

Funders of any project can influence decisions, but users giving from their own personal money can keep open source software free from any influences.

GPL is evil. GPL is poison. You’re an ideologie. You are vapid of the original UNIX cultural mindset. It’s all mushy feelings you care about, not best tools to accomplish the work. You have no experience how to setup a BSD desktop. If you had a job as network gateway admin for employee network services, your argument would sound very different. You might as well as well say GPL fills my heart with so much love, I wish I could make passionate love to the GPL"

I don’t know what you are saying. Can I assume that you have never touched BSD, know nothing about how it functions?

To make it easier and more flexible, I would suggest FreeBSD on desktop and servers. For routers or firewall, there’s nothing else but OpenBSD.

You’re not a tech person, you’re an ideologue, so you wouldn’t understand the culture around ISC. If a company wants security, constancy, and longecity, BSD is the only thing to use.

Choosing between Windows and BSD, which would you prefer everybody use? There are companies that already banned GPL software from company computers, what should they use?

Unless they switch to running BSD, it’s all crap.

There will never be any video platform that attracts talent until they pay uploaders. Every YouTube channel that has paid staff will never post anyone else, except a few on Runble. Either buy a subscription on other view websites or YouTube is the only option for anyone to not work for free. It seems that Twitter is starting to pay users but for serious information, shows, and livestreams, everyone watches on YouTube. Again, start paying out of your own cash if you want other sites to build something. I do see an alternative in the future due how giant YouTube is and its censorship of unapproved thoughts it’s going to implode on itself.

When superficially labeling anyone as “far right” for having a different view without understanding their nuances, it shows that you demand all people must be forced into conforming living under a tyrannical dictatorship because dissent is never allowed.

Does something like this look like it might work? It requires having an extra phone?

I can not understand what you are asking. Is a word or 2 missing from your question?

Only if you do not register your phone number with any service like Signal, bank does not require 2FA before you can access your account, and you never need any company to send you a message.

That’s a fantasy that SimpleX will ever catch on over Signal. You have to look at in the sense of path of least resistance for that mass market, not one individual person to another individual person. Keep in mind why it’s too difficult to sign up for a Mastodon account so it’s easier to stay on Twitter. People promote the benefits of Mastodon but nobody has ever built any success in the mass market or built a name for themself on Mastodon over using Facebook and Twitter. Name a company that people know in other countries and only uses fediverse exclusively. It’s the lowest number you can think of. As long as people have someone’s Twitter handle, everybody can find them. That’s why Signal is the best option, because people only have to post their username or give out their phone number, and everybody can be found on Signal.

For example, if you and I have a mutual contact, you could tell them to message me on Signal and you give them my info so they can talk with me there. If a company starts using Signal and posts the company’s number saying they are on Signal similar to how a lot of companies outside of North America use Whatsapp with the company number, the company can also use Signal as another contact option. That’s why SimpleX will never grow beyond people who pay attention to protecting persona privacy.

Look at PGP, it’s 30 years old, how many times has a person asked you for your public key?

There are things only sold on Amazon because that’s where the global mass market is. Even though Amazon does not have a site for every individual country, which other shopping website deliveries to almost every single country? If you want to replace Amazon, spend $5 billion to develop a competitor.

Only IceCat and Librewolf

Mastodon rules say for those who have the approved opinions in line with admins, it’s fine to wish death on individuals that Mastodon admins want to see killed.

Mastodon is built on misanthropy, that’s why Mastodon people are a spaz.
