Hi 👋 just shared the site with one of my buddies and he told me he doesn’t care much about it because there’s no way you’ll be 100% privacy enforced since you’re using an iPhone and sharing your location, name, birthdate , personal files, photos.

I’ve to say this gets to me but on the other side I’m also respectful of everyone‘s opinion because after all, this is what makes us special

How are you handling these circumstances usually, do you say something?

    the fact that it’s easy isn’t the point. The point is that you have that choice.

      I agree. It’s just that you said it’s easy.

      Maybe you were referring to unlocking the phone, which is really easy on stock android if you know how.

      The day we don’t have the choice anymore is the day i stop using android. Or smart phones at all if the alternative is apple.

        Well. Agree to disagree. You literally just plug it in and push buttons in the browser. It’s that simple.

          Ah, I didn’t do it that way… I think. I can’t remember. I certainly remember not wanting to because I don’t trust that way. Also I use firefox and I doubted it would work. I don’t know.

            Okay, but you can.

            Also I use firefox and I doubted it would work.

            It doesn’t, but you can’t use Chrome (or any other Chromium browser) for 5 minutes?

              Although i use android i really, really don’t want Google stuff on my pc. I use android because it’s the only viable choice on mobile. But on pc I’ll avoid chromium as much a i can. And having installed many roms the hard way before i saw no reason to make an exception.

              Plus i don’t like the browser doing something like that where i don’t know what it’s doing. If it was on firefox maybe i would trust it more, but even then…

                Do you know what Firefox is doing? Do you know what GrapheneOS is doing? At some point you have to either audit the code yourself or trust it.

                Seems a bit paranoid to be unwilling to have any Chromium fork on your PC for 15 minutes but you do you.
