The Catholic Church has left the chat room.

is Telegram FOSS on fdroid restrictive?

I just use it for checking the microblog these days. nothing else really happening.

It works fine for where I am but using a privacy friendly alternative is going to come with downsides, as it depends heavily on crowd sourced data.

Searching sucks big time for me too, as locations are not written in english here, you have to assume what the english transliteration might be. I just start with short close matches, and that usually works out after a little bit of digging. Google maps usually gives out most searched locations right away and often that's you're looking after.

Google is not making Android for users, but itself as its advertising platform. Ever wonder why custom ROMs and even other manufacturers have a permission to block internet access for specific apps in their Android forks but Google does not? hmm… Alright

Google isn't looking out for anyone but itself. These kind of restrictions and excuses are exactly what Apple calls "security".

yea. of all the shit the company pulls, how is this even newsworthy.

must be a slow news day.
