There might be some changes that could improve it further:
- Remove Brave
- Maybe add Signal; It's easier than Element, but it's also centralized
- Stop suggesting Linux Mint specifically
- Recommend Hosted Nextcloud
- Add GrapheneOS
- Maybe add Delta chat
- Maybe remove Bluesky
- Remove Stremio and add Jellfyin (even though it's selfhosted and not a direct equivalent)
- Add ente because Immich is selfhosted
- Add aurora
- Add SearxNG
Any other suggestions?
Lineage OS doesn't support Bootloader Re-locking (well tbf that's a manufacturer issue) and Verified Boot, so its a huge security issue. Like, if you want to avoid google and have security, Graphene OS is the only real option for a phone, which ironically, is only available on a Google Phone ๐
Netflix... ---> thepiratebay[DOT]org (replace [DOT] with a dot) ๐ดโโ ๏ธ๐ (might need a VPN since some countries block it, and you wouldn't want to torrent without a VPN anyways)
And Briar for messaging (Android Only). It's all Peer-to-Peer, and doesn't go through ANY central servers, maximum independence. And censorship resistant because of default Tor usage, and also local Bluetooth synching for like mass protests, in case your government also gets a bit... fascist... and shut down the internet.
Theres also CalyxOS, which is not only easier to install than lineage, but also relocks the bootloader and includes MicroG, which improves overall compatibility (especially regarding banking apps).
torrents-csv.com works great
Lineageos apparently does but you need to build and sign it yourself
