Saying “Signal is more secure and private”? No one gives a shit apparently

I had it but I don’t know how to connect the 2 together

Maybe this could work for Whatsapp if you’re willing to ditch notifications?

I need it for work so no? I can’t

I have installed WhatsApp without GServices and got delayed/no notifications and ~50% of my battery was WhatsApp in background. Brand new battery (?) on a refurbished Pixel 8. With minimum use, I used to get around 2PM with ~30% battery while now, I can get to 15% to 9PM with roughly more usage than before.

No idea why

hope you can all ditch Google apps/services

Sadly, I can’t ditch WhatsApp since everyone I know uses it + work and without sandboxed play services, WhatsApp eats my battery like crazy

True. Glad I didn’t continue with it, thanks!

(and you shouldn’t)

Why? I always wanted one but never been able to do it

EA 😮‍💨

I wish aegis had a UI like that… I prefer it to Aegis “Normal” view. They’re almost the same but ente is a little better

Aegis? https://f-droid.org/packages/com.beemdevelopment.aegis/

Who cares? Fuck Epic

Don’t complain when you’ll lose access to your account and they basically tell you to fuck off because for “security reasons” they can’t recover it :)

Also “dividing” the pc market is not a bad thing. Why would you want one company with a monopoly? They should have competition, it’s how we get good customer focused values in the products and services we use.

Problem is: Lil Tim doesn’t offer anything good and “free games” are not enough. I wonder how many games you played from the ones you collected. Don’t answer, I don’t care.

and just buy where it’s cheapest and take as much free stuff as I can get.

You’re still part of the problem. You’re the reason why they can keep doing what they do

Valve made possible gaming on Linux for example. What about lil Tim? What did he do? Divided gamers on PC because he wanted a share in the PC gaming market

You are part of the problem though… They’re ruining gaming on PC and you’re helping them by signing up to their site and actively collecting free games, did you know that?

You’re paying with your own data. Ye ye “steam does that too” or “everyone does that” but they have Chinese smoll pp backing them

I find the advertising of VPNs outright dishonest.

Can you explain? I’m curious

Steam because of its exclusives.

Exclusives? Never heard of them paying devs to release only on steam, epic did that and still does that (?? I think). Steam offers a better store and features to devs so they release the games there.

You know steam offers you to generate infinite (?) Steam keys to sell them on your website or anywhere else and valve gets 0% from it? It’s plenty of bad practices and devs accepting money just before the steam release (Metro exodus, I’m talking about you)

Problem is:

• Steam does nothing and devs release it on steam
• Epic pays devs to release it on Epic
