gayisha,

Okay, but what if their carelessness about privacy directly or indirectly affects you? For instacne, if someone in your contacts doesn’t prioritize privacy and has granted apps access to their contacts, it could potentially expose your information indirectly.

Gallery permissions too. It doesn’t matter if you’ve sent them something via a private&secure app, if they don’t care about gallery/file permissions that could potentially be exposed.

You can send them an address or any other data you want to keep private via private app, they copy it and voila, it is in their unsecured keyboard. + If they don’t care which app grants clipboard permissions, ah…

Also, it’s a silly example, but let’s say someone uses the same username on every network. They become an easy target for OSINT. If they follow a few people, including you (and worst-case scenario, only you), it’s very easy for someone to reach you through that person. As someone who has had a few stalkers in life (not just in the digital world but also in real life), every little detail like this matters.

People who don’t take care of their privacy but have contact with you expose you in various ways. It’s challenging to maintain privacy, no matter how many phones, phone numbers, or spoof accounts you have, if you want to be friends with someone who doesn’t prioritize privacy.

gayisha,

I was focusing on the notion of ‘Not my business. Their data’, because when our data becomes their, it is not solely their data anymore…

Plus, their data becomes a bridge to ours.

A bridge that connects our information makes privacy a shared concern.

FOSS Android Keyboard that supports password manager auto-fill like Gboard does?

I’m slowly but surely switching everything I use to FOSS alternatives and after using Gboard for a while thanks to it’s good swipe typing, I moved to OpenBoard for the same reason. Unfortunately, the fact that I can’t auto-fill my password via 1Password is bugging me (on top of less-than-ideal autocorrect). You guys know...

Yap, and if you like the Gboard Material You look, you can try this Florisboard version with dynamic themes also

FOSS keyboard under active development? (Android)

I have been looking all day for a FOSS keyboard that’s under active development. It seems like more of not all of the ones I’ve seen recommended haven’t been updated in over a year some three years. I don’t mind if it’s a long time between updates but I want to know bugs will be fixed eventually.

+1 for Florisboard. Patrick is diligently working on the NLP. Currenlty it is in phase 2 which is also the most important and the most challenging.

In the meantime, if someone wants the Material You version of Florisboard that visually resembles Gboard, you can check it here

Edit:

MYD, also known as M3 (Material 3) stands for Material You Design introduced in Android 12

gayisha,

I apologize for the misunderstanding. When OP asked for NewPipe alternatives, I assumed they were an Android user, where is Material design very popular.

MYD stands for “Material You Design”. Somewhere you can also see M3 (Material 3).

This is the latest Material Design version introduced in Android 12.

Note app recommendation to replace notion

Hey, I’m looking for a note app to replace notion. The main features I’m looking for are the ability to have different notebooks (or folders), the ability to have notes available offline(something I recently realized notion does not do), the ability so search in notes for words or phrases, and preferably a sync feature to...
