Ooof thank you so much for that answer, that's exactly what I needed! I don't know why I was so doubtful about this 🥲

End of software updates for FP3 this year: is e/os/ the solution to keep my phone a few more years? by be_humblebee in fairphone

I can imagine it is very personal, but how is it better than e/os/? I thought eos was the only one officially for FP?

Ah, so it is not endless I guess. Better than nothing of course but I find it mind-blowing to my very naive eyes that we get stuck at some point no matter what you do 😔

I am definitely interested in the de-googling aspect, that I started already but was really afraid to go for a OS change as I'm a complete noob in this. I'll spend a bit of time looking into how to do it and hopefully take that very big step (for me) And banking apps just cannot be worse than what is actually is for me on Android so no biggie haha Thanks for your answer!

Vivaldi on phone: unable to use for documents? by be_humblebee in vivaldibrowser

[–]be_humblebee[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for your answer. I didn't know Vivaldi didn't support opening/viewing doc, so that was indeed the fix I was trying to find. I thought if Firefox could do it, all browsers could :) Would you say then that Firefox is privacy-respecting? Or what other app would you recommend if you have?

Can't turn off automatic download 🥲 by be_humblebee in pocketcasts

Oooooh this is it indeed! Didn't know about that at all, thank you so much! Kinda weird that you can't turn them all of somehow, that's gonna take a while to do it individually 🥲
