I download it from aurora. So no play service on my phone and I can still use pixel cam
is it safe and private if i download it in my main profile but with network permission disabled?
I can confirm there’s a difference in quality too
yeah u are right
Thank you very much
Just tested Pixel Camera is indeed better. Still looking for an Open Source alternative that could compete with it though
thankyou very much
That is good to know, thanks a million
I have installed Lawnchair nightly. But when it loads only 3 apps icons are shown in home screen. It seems that I need to manually drag and drop all my 50 icons from drawer to home screen. is this the default behaviour. Is there a way to add all icons directly to home screen?
Also I have enabled it in the setting. But my newly installed app from f-droid doesn’t show automatically on my home screen which seems to be a strange behaviour. Maybe a bug?
much appreciated
but it doesn’t seem to support grapheneOS I will take a look at it in the future
it is the smoothest in all that I have tested. But it doesn’t support “automatically add newly installed app icon to homescreen” which bothers me a lot
“Organize app icons in bulk” is a bit unclear to me, but I think at the very least this will tick most of them
By “Organize app icons in bulk” what I meant is to rearrange multiple apps at once, long-press on any app icon or on the home screen itself until the device enters jiggle mode. Then, drag one of the app icons to an empty spot on the screen. While keeping a finger on that app icon, use the other hand to tap any additional apps that need to be relocated. As more icons are tapped, the home screen will create a stack of apps under the finger, along with a number indicating how many have been selected.
thanks a lot
for those who are interested
Many thanks, but according to https://youtu.be/dK1YTsUdd1w, smart launcher doesn’t seem to support drag app icon onto another icon and automatically create a folder with 2 icons in it. We can only create a separate folder first and then put icons in it
that is very sad to hear, as organizing apps into folders is very essential for me. Do you have any recommendation for a smooth experience of organizing apps into folders? (without those restrictions)
much appreciated
I’m still bit confused. How rendering could result in fingerprinting? If canvas and other fingerprinting is disabled of course. how is ad render different from rendering other element on a webpage
Web pages are not allowed to list your extensions. They can indirectly surmise you have certain extensions based on how your requests differ from expectations. For example, if they have advertisements, but your browser never actually makes any requests to load the images, CSS, JS or HTML for the advertisements, they can deduce you have an ad-blocker. That’s a datapoint they now have to ID you: “has an ad-blocker”
Now let’s say they have an ad they know AdBlockPlus allows, but uBlock Origin doesn’t. They see your browser doesn’t load that ad. Another datapoint: “Not using AdBlockPlus”.
Based on what requests go back and forth between your browser and their servers, they map out a unique fingerprint.
Thank you so much that makes sense
Sincere thanks
Most of those things cannot be collected through JavaScript.
Local time can.
RAM can only be approximated to protect user privacy. Edit: And it’s not available on Firefox.
OS+version are already in your browser’s user-agent string that is sent out with every request you make.
Machine hardware cannot be enumerated. JavaScript can try to guess your GPU based on what it can do with WebGL.
There is no way to get a serial number or similar.
To spoof timezone/OS+version/browser+version … and disable WebGL, use https://sereneblue.github.io/chameleon/
I guess spoofing will not make me stand out?
yes
not sure what this is
that is good to hear
yeah that could be the reason I guess?
