I just hear that they move to LibreOffice but not to Linux, ateast not right now.

The title at least dont say anything new AFAIK. Because you could already download from external sources but those apps still needed to be signed by apple. But maybe they changed?

The pdf might be password protected, some viewers can’t handle it. I would try adobe or send it to someone with desktop to check.

Like I already wrote, I fully know that it is collecting data, thats why I’m giving it some bogus ones (like for example fake location), and some other valid one (like for example my device id and IP when I use it) that I did agree to give in exchange for protecting my bank account from being hijacked and other.

Other than that it collects nothing more at least nothing active. Why do you ask? Because bank app have background internet access denied so it can only connect to internet when it is in foreground. Yes, it could run some periodical task in background, store that data on disk and send it only when active but that’s something that facebook would definitely do. While I agree that a lot of shitty apps do that, I doubt that bank will try to risk gdpr breach (that would hurt them monetairly in many ways) over some useless data that they could access.

On top od that I have have network traffic monitor always on screen so I see when something is using network and howuch, ans that it stays flat 0 when I use offline apps, that gives me confidence that nothing is actively sending data to network.

And yes, I already once closed my bank account because of a shitty app, so I know what I’m saying.

Those plastic rectangles doesn’t have any security against range extend attacks so they can steal money from you and you would be plain unaware and defenses. While phone or watch will only enable contactless payment on demand making it way safer. And you can pay with contactless payment everywhere in Poland while you sometimes can’t pay with inserting physical card on some automated devices as there is no where to insert that card, you can only use contactless feature of that card.

Not to mention those plastic rectangles cost yearly or sometimes even monthly, while app is 100% free. And if the app at any point in time do anything that I didn’t agree in the agreement and/or bypass any permissions I didn’t grant them there will be hell to pay for them.

But maybe I’m wrong, I don’t know…

I use bank app for contactless payments. But the bank app have no other permissions, even location is fake.

ambitious plan

Good, good, but I guess it is only a plan to negotiate for lower prices.

But if they actually deliver without going back… 😍

In case of f-droid, it’s follow more the Linux distro phylosopy, where the binaries are build and offered to you not by the developer but by distro/repository maintainers people.

You can add your own repository or use your friend repository or use f-droid ones.

In case od f-droid repository, to get app published your app need to adhere to rules one of them is that the code need to be public so the repo maintainers can build the app from it.

Comparing it to play store where the app is build and sign by the developer without making the code public, in turn making it almost impossible to know and follow what the app is doing.

So its a matter of trust.

For some apps I would rather install them from f-droid as I have higher confidence that someone looked at it if the app is not harmful or leaking my private data. For other apps like Banking apps I would rather install them from Aurora store where I dont know what the app is doing but I trust more to protect my money than some random dude on internet. And if bank does something bad I will sue them or just stop using their service.

My guess it is zip’ping the directory in memory to send it as single zip file, hence use a lot of memory. Better to zip/tar directory yourself and send that file over.

On top od that it takes more vertical space so more % of the video is covered by controls that are not that transparent so the whole control block is covering it in full comparing to previous where only the actual icons and text did cover the video with the gradient to help make it visible if video is the same color.

But one way or another I avoid yt so it doesnt really affect me.

😍 they know the good stuff

Just go to the settings, apps, Tusky app and click “open defaults” or something default dont know how its called in English. It will unset all default targets of that app.

Those certificates should not exist in first place. That is just a bad design.

https://lemmy.rip/ doesn’t have a valid SSL which might be a problem.

Best to buy phones that you can relock your bootloader, from memory I can only think of 2 phone manufacturers that allow that: Fairphone and Pixel phones that allow you to relock bootloader.

I bought Fairphone 5 with Degoogled /e/ OS from Murena to avoid that annoying cat and mouse game. I bought from murena website to get my phone already with degoogled firmware flashed.

In my case bootloader is locked with google attestation so 99,9% apps works, including Banks apps with TAP to pay. Bank payments that dont use google pay but implent NFC directly works (so except for google pay other pay method should work).

Both my bank apps works with tap to pay, But Your milage may vary.

Im happy with my phone. Due to all that, not a single app had issues with “valid OS checks” because it actually is valid, it did came directly from seller and never got unlocked/flashed.

It is locked but I should be able to unlock bootlader, flash different firmware version and lock it back up making the attestation valid again but didn’t do that yet so can’t be 100% sure.

But most likely they use all of those recordings accidental or not to serve you targeted ads, like Google does.

Few hours later on timeline:

It sounds like jest plain simple website/forum BUT with specific protocol making it more discoverable/searchable?

Allowing to post comments anonymously… sound like a bad idea in the long run, but who know, make me eat my words.
