Another question regarding switching to #GrapheneOS/ #android from iOS: Does @signalapp really offer no way to move chats over between OS?

I’m in the middle of moving from iOS to #GrapheneOS. My 1st time using something #android-based, so I’m looking for some first-hand recommendations:

1. What Mastodon clients do people prefer? For context: On iOS, I love Ivory, is there anything that gets close?

2. Which FreshRSS-supporting RSS client do folks love? On iOS, I run Reeder.

3. I’ve gone back to having local files as my music library, what’s a good player?

4. What’s a good podcast client, if one comes from Apple’s podcasts?

#degooglog

right, so i installed #GrapheneOS, some apps were really easy to download using either alternative "app stores" like @fdroidorg, and obviously, a direct link to their APK.

I'm sure I'll have to go through the Play Store at one point of another, especially for those B2B apps my works requires.

I just downloaded more Fedi apps on my GrapheneOS device!

Ich hab ein gebrauchtes #Pixel geschenkt gekommen und natürlich gleich als erstes #grapheneOS drauf installiert.

Das kleinere Kind hat sofort überrissen, dass ich jetzt "zu viele" Handys hab. Aber es liegt ja nicht am Mangel an Hardware, dass es "immer noch" kein eigenes Handy hat, das arme.

Mein Fairphone mit #LineageOS ist eh total super und wird grundsätzlich noch sehr lange funktionieren. Aber Graphene ist schon ein ganz anderes Level. Ich werde probieren und gustieren.

#Tablet #question . I need to replace two #lineageos tablets. These ones where great for a very long time, but now the ROM for it is not more maintained.

Phones are changed to #grapheneos .

Ok #GrapheneOS people. A feature that I'm missing is the ability to easily search for humorous GIF images and paste them into text boxes from the keyboard. I'm sure all my signal contacts will be missing my ridiculous tendency. Is there a similar thing I can install?

Feature i really liked on my moto phone that's not on #grapheneos was "chop to turn on flashlight" you basically shake the phone like chopping wood and it turns on the light. Is there any fdroid or other app that gives some kind of similar eyes free feature? I don't want to look at the screen to turn on the light.

Je suis surpris de ne pas trouver dans #GrapheneOS un blocage des pisteurs dans les applications, car c’est intégré dans /e/OS .. #eos
On est en sécurité mais tracé ?

Jack-Benny på Cyberinfo har skrivit en färsk bloggartikel om GrapheneOS, och en länkad relaterad artikel från förra året om BankID och dess risker.

#GrapheneOS #Android

I have this weird bug where sometimes randomly the UI starts using the secondary language that I set up. my phone system should be in English but sometimes parts of the UI are suddenly in German.

In the first screenshot, we can see that the date is in english: Wednesday
But the notification is in German: "jetzt" (means 'now').

The other two screenshots are from weeks ago where I locked the phone a few times and unlocked it to make it use English again

I haven't figured out how it is triggered. After a few minutes it is back in English.

Has anyone else experienced this?

Preliminary report from the first few hours of #GrapheneOS on my Pixel 9a.

Phone itself is nice, as long as you're ok with no headphone jack. It's a little smaller than my older one, and i'm a little more fumbly with the keyboard.

Install went fine on Linux + Chromium using web-install per the website instructions. Literally took maybe 20 mins total including reading instructions.

I downloaded F-droid and signal to my laptop and sent it over USB so I could install apps I want. That was easy

I had a plan to switch to #grapheneos when this iPhone dies, but now more than ever I dont want to give money to google for a new #pixel . The new #fairphone #Fairphone5 looks a phenomenal bargain in comparison to a pixel. Also looked at #nothingphone anyone know if its possible to #degoogle these phones completely? It seems crazy that buying a Google phone seems the best method to reliably degoogle!! Graphene team doing the lords work.

@GrapheneOS
I was a bit uneasy about buying a new Pixel 9a and then changing it over to #grapheneos but I used the recommended web install process and it went without a single hitch. Beauty!
