Saying “Signal is more secure and private”? No one gives a shit apparently

I had it but I don’t know how to connect the 2 together

Maybe this could work for Whatsapp if you’re willing to ditch notifications?

I need it for work so no? I can’t

I have installed WhatsApp without GServices and got delayed/no notifications and ~50% of my battery was WhatsApp in background. Brand new battery (?) on a refurbished Pixel 8. With minimum use, I used to get around 2PM with ~30% battery while now, I can get to 15% to 9PM with roughly more usage than before.

No idea why

hope you can all ditch Google apps/services

Sadly, I can’t ditch WhatsApp since everyone I know uses it + work and without sandboxed play services, WhatsApp eats my battery like crazy

True. Glad I didn’t continue with it, thanks!

(and you shouldn’t)

Why? I always wanted one but never been able to do it

I wish aegis had a UI like that… I prefer it to Aegis “Normal” view. They’re almost the same but ente is a little better

Aegis? https://f-droid.org/packages/com.beemdevelopment.aegis/

I find the advertising of VPNs outright dishonest.

Can you explain? I’m curious

• have network access: necessary for the map view, and most likely for precise reverse geocoding too,

• view network connections: checking for connection states allows Aves to gracefully degrade features that depend on internet.

Oh no! Anyway. Good to know. Buying it today

So no matter what, I can’t pay contactless with it? Without G wallet. Just curious

I don’t like the iOS style home and icons. GOS has some good features. I have to search more about Murena. Thanks

Also wtf, get a proton mail account (yes I’m a shill for them).

A shill? Why?

I only use WhatsApp because family (no one cares about privacy) and work so I can make a profile only for that. I might create 1 or 2 profiles and nothing more. Thank you

Yup, 8 was release 1 year ago so I’ll try to get a 8 but no white (╯°□°）╯︵┻━┻

And?

So 8. Can’t and don’t want to spend 1000€

Uh weird! Others said it’s possible to do it.

That’s awesome! I want to isolate a few apps
