Hi, I would like to ask advice for purchase new smartphone. For now I survive on old android phone with no google account and scrape up some basic apps from f-droid or other places. It's hassle but it works well for basics.
Minimum is buy some typical Android hardware and use LineageOS (which is fork of now dead cyanogen-mod). But I wonder, is there better hardware choice? here too we have https://puri.sm putting together custom ethical hardware but not released yet and is it any different ultimately except for the hardware switches? What are thoughts on a usable smartphone purhcase with some security/privacy and minimal app available (ex: OpenVPN, email, calculator, web, messaging, phone, camera, camera flash used as a torch, ssh client, music player, pdf viewer, text/doc editor, calendar, sip client, alarm clock, of course OrBot........i alsolike one handed Swype typing but I dont know if there is a modern fork of that, and GPS: well sometime nice to find myself on a map but its not so important) Interesting about hardware advice but also concerned for O/S. Are people excited for puri.sm Librem phone or skeptikal? Thank u everyone PS- Is there better place to ask for this kind of advice? -- tor-talk mailing list - tor-talk@lists.torproject.org To unsubscribe or change other settings go to https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-talk
