What matters to me is what tools the browser lets me use to complement it and harden it to my liking.

Chromium does not offer that. But if I’m going to use Chromium, it would be Brave browser, since it provides tools comparable to what I use in Firefox.

To me, how is a browser going to be attacked if the scripts the attacker would use are already blocked by my toolset? (Rhetorical)

I’ll be sure to let you kn

People have lost their homes. Please keep your political bickering out of this.

Most of reddit seems to be bots posts now, or reddit employees. They shot themselves in the chest when they did their greedy deeds.

I wish there was a way to keep Grapheneos installed and locked down without root, but with a way to adjust screen color. The only way I can tolerate pixel screen color reproduction is to root it and use an app to adjust it.

Ooooh that. Yeah I get that with android auto.

I’ve recently turned off all apps (including google) permission to draw over other apps and that seems to have stopped it for me, on Pixel 8.

Been using smart launcher for a while. I like that the pro version offers blur.

Article mentions 3rd party launcher gesture issues, but I’ve never seen this problem. I used to use Nova but switched to Smart launcher for the blur, but at no time have gestures been an issue. Any ideas what they mean?

It’s probably Google sharing that information with Amazon. Amazon isn’t actively spying on Google searches. I could be wrong though, but that is what Google “Ad Privacy” spyware is really about. To let Google share your interests with other companies.

For a spray that actually will kill the odor, try Ozium. But that probably needs to be an additional tool in your arsenal.

FYI this does not include spreadsheets, so if you’re hoping to replace an office suite, it’s not there yet.

I just found Futo keyboard. Works very well and has offline voice input that works great.

Could be that you didn’t pay your internet bill, or your modem has no service.

So it might be that Fairphone is not aware how to make the notification bar transparent. It’s a setting in android development they can enable. (Disclaimer: I’m not a developer.)

With that in mind, they seem to be saying it was intentional to hide their lack of knowledge. It’s simply unreasonable that any developer would want such a hideous defect permanently at the top of the home screen.

On a positive note, I believe android 15 is supposed to correct this when the developer does not.

Try a different launcher like Nova Launcher or Smart Launcher.

I answered this in your other post, but linking the answer here as well:

It seems to be how apps can link themselves to a URL. This service just verifies the link is good.

I went to Phoenix, AZ, completely expecting sand dunes, because it’s a desert. It was then I learned there are different types of desert.

You got a free protection plan, according to the image you posted.
