Real Linux is definitely the way - but GSI Roms are totally capable of microG if I’m not mistaken! On that github’s FAQ page it mentions the FLOSS version comes packed with f-droid; microG can be installed from there and works fine - it doesnt need to be bundled in the ROM! 🙂
Or just stick with the vanilla gsi & you’ve got bare aosp. Throw F-droid on there, pull down microG and bam!
THANK YOU! Such a glaring hole in graphene os, I dont know how it doesnt get talked about more!
Can’t wait to see a followup post for this! Cheers for doing this AMA! 🎉❤️❤️
There’s a lineagoOS fork that comes prepackages with microG as well, helping to keep google services style stuff working (maps links etc) without using any actual google services. It’s my daily driver, would recommend!
YMMV - some stuff still flat out doesn’t work if it’s too reliant on google services. Graphene is definitely better in that regard, if you have a pixel.
Yeah, came to the comments to say exactly this! The writer has an RSS feed as well - added to my reader!! 😃 cheers, op - what a find!
Nah, still no v6 server. At least, not on their main download page 🥲
Sick! Are you running a Linux client? Last I checked the self-hosted V6 server binary hadn’t released, if it’s finally out I’ll drop a brick!!
There was a post recently on c/privacy for a self hostable (relaying) peer-to-peer web based option! Its effectively release 1.0 and has some bugs (some serious security ones at the moment), but I think it has lots of promise!!
I’ll go grab the link for the post I saw…
Revolt is still extremely beta, at least last I checked it out?
Vesktop (on flatpak I believe) is just a discord wrapper with plugin support, actually a really great experience!!
Still, here’s hoping literally any FOSS discord clone gets fully off the ground sometime soon. The enshitification is so fucking real.
Ah nice, seems I misremembered that URL also! Fixed my comment 🙂
So excited to see this progress!! 😃❤️
I have been searching for a discord alternative for so long 😭 THANK YOU THANK YOU! Cannot wait to start testing this out with friends 😃
How do we get this listed on alternative.to alternativeto.net ? Would love to get this posted on there for more folks to find it on their own prerogative!!
Badass theming you got there! That browser is that??
FUCK YEAH!! 🎉🎊🎉
Wow that is way sick! Thanks!
Woah, Cachy sounds sick! How does the gaming mode perform in your experience? Is it effectively the same as the deck’s vanilla game mode? 🤔 very tempted to give it a shot myself!
I use Stearch btw
This 1000%
Fuuck duck 🤣🤣🤣 genuinely cried laughing at this! Thank you 🙇♂️
