Dear @privacytools, @BurungHantu, @jonah - would it make sense for the site to have recommendations for replacing Android default components with privacy-friendly alternatives?
eg launchers, keyboards, search engine, weather app. Oh and navigation!
@michel_slm @privacytools @BurungHantu I’d strongly discourage using stock Android in the first place and using one of our ROM recommendations instead (GrapheneOS, LineageOS etc), which will replace all those defaults anyhow.
@jonah @privacytools @BurungHantu that's the ideal, yes, so privacy-friendly Android distros/forks (err what's the official term?) should be there too.
But it'd be nice to let people gradually secure themselves too. Some might not have the ability (technical or otherwise) to make a full-blown switch e.g. work-provided phone / phone too new / not tech-savvy
@michel_slm
I've been slowly working on some stuff like this for #android users
Plan is to make it open for collaboration.
Been sorting out the platforn.
Will let you all know when its live. @jonah @privacytools @BurungHantu
@dazinism @jonah @privacytools @BurungHantu awesome, thanks! Meanwhile I'm checking out the KISS Launcher from @fdroidorg - damn, compared to this everything derived from the stock launcher is so sluggish.
