A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

It's funny how some people are willing to use weird android mods that can't run half of the apps to protect their privacy while others can't even wait 0.01s longer for a page to load.
Good point. Privacy usually means sacrificing some level of convenience.
Meanwhile, I find most of these convenience tools such as the "Modes and Routines" app and Google Maps timeline to be creepy and dystopian as fuck.
Personnaly I do realize that 99.99% of people run stock android/iOS but sometimes forget and am surprised that the same people don't have any ad blocker.
