The problem is its closed source and often difficult for the average user to tell what is going out. All you can do is Do Not Trust.

And not many consider the environmental impact of this either. Sure storage might be cheap (not in my country but I digress) but more space still requires more storage and across thousands of computers and then millions of computers that's not an insignificant increase. We should be increasing technological efficiency not what were doing at the moment which seems to be just throwing more power and resources at the problems.

I'm typing this via GrapheneOS and I don't at all feel like I'm living 10 years in the past lol.

Even if I was, at least the internet would be a less shitty place than it is now, there would be almost no LLM/AI crap, I wouldn't constantly have to be as vigilant against big corps datamining my privacy as much as I am now.... Actually, 2015 was a pretty decent time compared to now. Got a time machine?

My main point is

Android also runs Google play services

is incorrect as a general statement about Android. I used GrapheneOS as an example but there are plenty of other Android ROMs that also don't come with Google Play Services or any Google at all.

I know this is an older thread but I don't know why you're getting down voted. I am long haired and always move my hair out of the way bending over and whatnot. I love long hair but I don't like it getting in my eyes or tickling my nose so it becomes habit to hold it out the way of my face.

This is very cool. I run a website for a charity and this had certainly made me reflect on how I could reduce its power consumption (even with it hosted on 100% renewable power servers)
