Happy cakeday, lemm.ee! in c/meta@lemm.ee
[–] CrypticCoffee@lemm.ee 1 points 2 months ago

I just want to say thank you for providing the instance.

For myself, lemmy.world and lemmy.ml are strictly politically one way or another and perhaps somewhat intolerant of other views. I like how this space is something that can be a gateway into interacting with users of all persuasions without the "quick, defederate them all" nonsense. I only hope and wish that lemm.ee grows to maintain it's position as one of the key cornerstones of the lemmy community.

Thanks for providing this space and persisting. I can imagine it has not been easy.

If you're not keen on web DRM, might be worth considering Firefox. The less chromium users, the easier it is to stop companies implementing this.

Sanity is restored.

Love KDE, and good to see them chipping away at these pain points.

Fast growing Lemmy Communities? (lemm.ee)
 

Hi. Is there a tool to see fastest growing Lemmy communities? It's easy to see the big communities, but it would be helpful to see fast growing communities to join in with community building for things you may have an interest in. is there anything that currently does this?

Interested in De-googling, but I would really like a phone with a decent camera, but I can't bring myself to pay $600 for a phone. Advice? in c/privacy@lemmy.ml

Yes, I have a Pixel 6a, and have installed GrapheneOS on it. It does what I need and I enjoy the extra privacy. Would recommend.

What mobile OS do you use? (lemm.ee)
 

This one is definitely the hardest and is the least mature. Have you managed to get off Google on your phone?

I'm using GrapheneOS (Degoogle'd android) on a Pixel 6a. The irony isn't lost on me that I had to buy google to get off google.

I had tried Pinephone and Plasma mobile, but it still needs more work and I needed a phone sooner as my old one was failing.

How about you? Did you manage to get away from Google?

Use GrapheneOS :) in c/degoogle@lemmy.ml

I've been happy with it on Pixel 6a. It feels good to know my phone isn't spying on every little thing I do.
