Doesn’t this affect Signal too? There is a setting under “Privacy -> Advanced” called “Always relay calls”, which routes calls through Signal servers to prevent IP leaks (and can decrease call quality)… This setting is disabled by default
Austria, mid 20s, yes
Not xml
OpenSUSE, mostly because they differ too much from other distros, often even without any (obvious) advantages.
For example a lot of file paths (config files and such) are different, and when being used to other distros (or just following a guide from the internet) it takes longer to find it (I know there is Yast but I’m not a huge fan of that tool either)
Also, Manjaro
There are some browsers with ad-blocking support, e.g. Firefox/Fennec/Mull with the uBlock Origin extension, or Brave Browser.
There used to be third party apps for Twitter, but afaik they don’t work anymore.
DNS blocking only works if the ads are loaded from a seperate subdomain.
Personally I wouldn’t mind a few preinstalled apps, if they can actually be uninstalled, not just disabled which seems to be the case for some.
But the “Meta Services” thing seems shady af, its not showing up in the app drawer because its just a background service most people don’t even know it exists. Its also not needed, because all of the Meta apps work just fine without it. So realistically Meta just pays Samsung a lot of money for something that only has the purpose to collect a lot of user data (it can also access more data than regular apps because it’s installed as an system app)
There is still a lot of stuff preinstalled which could be considered unwanted by a lot of people (TikTok, Netflix, Spofify, multiple MS apps, Disney+, Facebook, Meta Services, …)
Thats not correct. The law only applies from 2027, and there are exceptions for smartphones and tablets.
Basically it doesn’t need to be user replaceable if the battery is rated for at least 83% capacity after 500 charging cycles and at least 80% capacity after 1000 charging cycles.
