  • Linux phones still have a looong way to go.

  • And Edge still does.

  • On Firefox it's called Private mode, on Edge it's called InPrivate mode.

  • Elementary. Now people get access to the internet earlier on.

  • So theoretically, you should hear more about Android holes than iPhones since people easily see the vulnerability and try it.

  • Extracted image:

  • WikiBot on Lemmy!

  • That's why I whitelisted the comment editing from subreddits where it might be helpful. Even r/linuxmemes, I left some helpful comments there too.

  • It's been that way for quite some time.

  • What about DuckDuckGo?

  • What about Menu?

  • It's much more readable when you use else depending on the checks. You can still use return in an else block.

    def Allowed()

     
              if name == "Octopus1348": return True
    
          elif name == "Bobert": return True
    
          else:
                return "You are not allowed to use this script."
    
    
    
      

    print(Allowed())

  • But you can use sideloading and different stores for that.

    That's (part of) what I said. You can also remove your Apple ID after you downloaded some apps, but that doesn't change the fact that you need one to do so.

  • Wait so you don't need an Apple ID for the App Store? Or did I interpret your comment wrong.

  • That's de-googling (which I specifically mentioned in my previous comment). I'm talking about the stock experience most people will have on Android. For that, you need a Google account.

    An user not familiar with Android will just use the Play Store, and they'll need to log in with Google.

  • Have you heard of the Apple Cheesegrater?

  • on Apple you are forced to use an Apple ID

    Not entirely true. For most functionality on Android, you also need to be signed in with Google, but you can de-google it. On Apple, it's the same, but you can't de-apple it. You can currently only use the App Store which needs an Apple ID, so you can use without an Apple ID but you lose like 80% of the stuff you could use your phone for.

  • A good adblocker can fix it. Like uBlock Origin on Firefox.

  • The LG app also checks SafetyNet/Play Integrity so you can't use it with root. They probably fear that you can then unleash how much more of a privacy nightmare it is.
