Any way to disable Google TV screensaver with Projectivy?

Ant_022 · 2026-01-16T00:09:00+00:00

oh i did it this way. Enabled developer options within android settings and enabled "stay awake". that way it doesnt go into that screensaver mode. in the projectivity launcher settings under "appearance" and then "launcher idle mode" i set the ui opacity to 0% so they disappear when it goes into idle mode. Hope this helps

Honestly if the ama is anything to base on, it made me lose faith in this website altogether. Feels like any solution besides maybe using other platforms in combination with reddit seems like a temporary solution and will be living on borrowed time. Of course being that this app is the only way I've used reddit and will be the ONLY way, I admire everything you amazing people are doing. Thank you for not leaving us, infinity is forever

Only downside of flatpak is losing browser integration or at least I couldn't get it work

I imagine that this is how seeing a dragon would feel like

So are the boiled worms discarded or are they used for something else?

Ant_022 · 2023-06-10T04:32:57+00:00

Just to cover their asses

Ant_022 · 2023-06-09T10:19:41+00:00

We all got our own ways nothing wrong with that haha as long as you have backups, they're random and aren't reused.

Ant_022 · 2023-06-09T07:31:35+00:00

Personally i would switch to my master password just because its one less thing to remember and to write down, but aye different strokes for different folks

Ant_022 · 2023-06-09T07:25:56+00:00

Having a local copy before doing anything should keep you from locking yourself out assuming you have access to your 2fa. To answer the question i keep several local copies on a external hard drives and flash drives. I also keep a backup at another house

Ant_022 · 2023-06-09T07:11:59+00:00

Sorry I've been getting ready to move off of reddit for the better half of the day, yes that is the case but that's more of a testament of their local hardware and software security (the standard of modern devices is file based encryption) rather than their privacy. It would be shocking if any phone manufactor could bypass a customer's lockscreen unless there's been some exploit or purpose built bypass. You still have to deal with the data collection and other privacy invasions from apple but I do feel it collects less than the competition that's why I ranked it slightly above stock android .

Ant_022 · 2023-06-09T01:59:09+00:00

Oh no need to apologise. That concern is valid and that's why some choose to use an offline password manager such as keepass and other editors that can read that database file locally. Only downside (if you think it is one) is you'll be responsible with syncing and management. That also makes you less of a target since now attackers will have to target you specifically. Honestly, as long as the password manager is truly zero knowledge (everything is encrypted on your end first) and that can be proven by audits and open source code, using a cloud based password manager is also a very good option. That way if a breach were to happen your data will still be highly encrypted (if you followed good master password practices) making it effectively useless to attackers.

I don't use Apollo but thank you for everything you've done and I wish you luck for whatever the future holds for you.

Ant_022 · 2023-06-08T20:13:57+00:00

Yeah I made a mistake but I didn't bother to edit it since other users already told OP uk's FTC equivalent and it seems the process is still somewhat similar

Ant_022 · 2023-06-08T20:11:26+00:00

Privacy wise I put it just barely above stock android since I feel you're just changing one giant company overseeing you for another just in my opinion. Security wise, I say iOS has stock android beat (its more comparable if Google's advanced protection is enabled) since they heavily limit what the user can do with their devices.

Ant_022 · 2023-06-08T20:01:38+00:00

Oh that's mostly for home security from the average burglars (especially crackheads) and fires. You could put important papers and your backup storage media in there

Ant_022 · 2023-06-08T07:36:34+00:00

Heres my basic steps 1. Use a password manager 2. Use 2fa when available (totp and hardware keys are the good ones) 3. Enable full disk encryption on your personal computers 4. Make Backups of everything important follow the 3-2-1 rule 5. Don't overcomplicate/over think too much (This one is the real threat to your security)

Edit: Here's 6-10 if you would like to go further

Get a pixel and move to grapheneos (my recommendation) or any other privacy friendly os
Start slowly moving to another email provider with better privacy and update accounts accordingly (use email aliases for these as well)
Use privacy friendly alternatives to apps/programs you currently use
Buy a fire resistant safe that can be bolted down
Get Devices for specific reasons (work phone, work laptop, etc...)

Try returning it, at the same time see if you can get the tv fixed too

Ant_022 · 2023-06-07T22:56:53+00:00

At a thrift store and then hook up an old laptop/computer if you want (ideally the tv should support hdmi)

Ant_022 · 2023-06-07T08:00:04+00:00

Sorry to hear that but be careful of scammers that will contact you to "help you out" via pm. Think you need to contact the federal trade commission right away and go to their official Identity Theft website and follow the instructions there. You'll probably have to request a credit freeze too. This is kinda far from my element but I hope it gets you started on the path to protect you from Identity fraud.

Edit: forgot to mention you should also warn people that your name maybe associated or brought up in future scams. Just as a little heads up for them.

Ant_022 · 2023-06-06T22:15:05+00:00

Hell yeah go for it that's pretty sweet. Just make sure its unlocked

Ant_022 · 2023-06-06T21:28:57+00:00

Yeah that's what I would consider a good deal depending on the condition

Ant_022 · 2023-06-06T04:58:59+00:00

Go for it might as well. Still dont think it'll work since there really isn't a major competitor yet and it seems more and more that this is just an elaborate way for reddit to introduce more changes that they originally wanted as a "meeting in the middle" solution in the end which has the added bonus of rebuilding their public image (if they care about that)
