I’ve been using a standalone opensource privacy-focused android calendar called KashCal. You can add remote calendars and keep them synced if you want, it’s in very active development. I did find a bug that prevented me from saving an edit to a recurring event and dev replicated and confirmed the bug and promptly addressed it. Very stable useful app from F-Droid/GitHub.

“All Nitrokeys [presumably including their reengineered phones; I’m not 100% certain, but that appears the case] are produced in Germany”

The OP’s and article’s subjects did not specify a need for the less secure Android OS. And the NitroPhone is entirely deGoogled which @goodlucksil@lemmy.dbzer0.com or others could understand by reading the linked article, rather than rushing into snark-combat.

Tuta’s article was not about nonPixel phones. It was about escaping the Google ecosystem which aligns with the Nitro’s purpose, along with its hardening of security by physical removal of pixel’s sensors, to start. The [re-]design philosophy and methodology appear sound. If I were looking for a new, deGoogled phone now in the $900+ USD range, it would likely be my top consideration.

But again, it was an interesting article.

Interesting that they don’t cover puri.sm5 or NitroPhone, the latter having been built around GrapheneOS which the Tuta article implies is still a ways off for degoogled phones. This is actually a Pixel9a that has been modified to degoogle it, and seems like the most security-focused consumer phone I’ve looked at so far.

Useful article in any event, thanks.

“This app reports activity; Analytics can’t be disabled” is a nonstarter for me. Sometimes it appears there’s no such thing as a free game.

Recently I have been unable to find any working public frontends for YouTube or Instagram. People keep sending me links to content on both. Piped and Invidious servers were still fairly plentiful just a very few weeks ago. Based on what I’ve only just now read here, I’ll try GrayJay for YT. If there’s a good source for persistently updated info on currently-functioning, public-facing Privacy Frontends, please post a link (or keep this thread updated?). Thanks!
