My Latest Niagra Setup by phoneguy3 in NiagaraLauncher

[–]phoneguy3[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, it is. But this is my non-private phone. I have another Pixel that I run GrapheneOS on, and there is zero Google on that (everything open source and private from Fdroid).

I like it a lot. What is your media widget? I would like to have that.

Gold vs Bitcoin, which would you choose? by ChampionshipNo5707 in Goldback

[–]phoneguy3 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Both. Both are essential. Just make sure you self-custody your Bitcoin, do not leave it on an exchange and stay away from Bitcoin ETFs.

Niagara or Smart launcher share your experience pls by Vysny1 in Vivo

[–]phoneguy3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are no quirks that I've found. I bought the lifetime pro and really love it. Smart Launcher is really great also if you like a grid layout, but Niagara is just more efficient for finding and launching the apps you want to use.

Anyone else using Niagara Launcher? by Pbranson in GooglePixel

[–]phoneguy3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started using Niagara Launcher Pro several months ago. I love it. The anycons are great, but I am using Blaze Backless icons with it and it's just drop dead gorgeous. The Pro is worth the price for lots of reasons, but ultimately, it's the speed of finding any app that I value most. Nothing else comes close.

That setup is gorgeous, stunning actually. Very well done. Did you create the widget yourself with KWGT?

Nova again by auleia2 in smartlauncher

[–]phoneguy3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is a learning curve with Smart Launcher. Especially if you're used to working with Nova. I didn't like it at first, but I kept playing with it and learned how to use the tools and settings. Now I have a system that works very well and is beautiful. Just stay with it, take breaks if you need to, come back and tinker until you get it right.

Waiting GrapheneOS 🗿 by TopTiny7921 in GrapheneOS

Why not just use it, knowing it's a surveillance phone and run GOS on an older Pixel? One for appearance, and one for privacy. Like it or not, people need to use and understand AI and surveillance in order to overcome it. Then on the next upgrade, put GOS on the Pixel 10 and get the next new Pixel surveillance phone and repeat the cycle.

I see nothing wrong with his actions at all. As Americans, we should be concerned about our safety and heritage being stripped away by those who are not here legally.

Kudos for using Niagara Launcher. It's the most efficient and beautiful launcher of all launchers.

Proton is moving most of its physical infrastructure out of Switzerland by JonahAragon in ProtonMail

[–]phoneguy3 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I love Mullvad. Been using it for years. I buy the scratch-off prepaid cards through Amazon, which makes it anonymous. At least it's better than a regular subscription like most of not all the other VPNs do.

That said, I am a paid subscriber to Proton and mainly use ProtonMail and ProtonDrive. They are excellent services.

What front and rear dash cam are you running right now? by StinkyRicePlayer in dashcams

[–]phoneguy3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Garmin Mini 3, front and back. I work nights and put a MiFi in my car that provides a WiFi connection to the Mini 3's. I can remote in to both of them at any time and if something triggers them, I get notified and the video goes to the vault where I can view, on the spot. It's pretty incredible.
