last night, my pixel came! I flashed Graphene and I am now running it smoothly!
I am in the process of downloading apps and I have a question: I am interested in at least using discord on this device. It is absolutely one of my most used apps. On PC, I use legchord. Im a big fan. Is there something similar available for mobile? and I have a similar question for Whatsapp, and FB messenger (although those are less important)?
Yeah you’re right. Let’s just keep using all these apps and building our technological lives on top of these awful corp’s infrastructures and platforms. I mean we have to, right? We can’t inconvenience ourselves in the short term to find alternative solutions, can we?
It’s so frustrating watching the world fall apart when we’ve tried nothing and are all our of ideas.
complete isolation and complete submission aren’t the only two options.
Oh right… The moderate approach. Yeah that works really well…
what works then?
Collective action, but that takes people and people, again, don’t like giving up their conveniences.
i wouldn’t be giving up any convenience at all if people i talk to were elsewhere.
some of them i can bring over, i’d still need whatsapp for everyone else.
That’s convenience…
that’s basic social interaction for being a functional member of society.
i can’t get everyone i ever meet to switch to my app. i need to talk to new people, i need a job and i need to interact with the state.
Does being purposefully obstinate usually work for you, or are you unaware of your obstinace?
