Privacy benefits of Custom roms

So recently my moto G60 reached the end of life with respect to security updates. That was the reason I was using to prevent myself from switching to a custom rom(actual reason is laziness). This phone has rom support for pixel experience and lineage OS. So my questions are if pixel experience has any privacy advantages when...

majestictechie,

The OS itself is private because it’s DeGoogled. I also installed GApps because I wanted the convinence of the App store and core feature I’ve been used to for so long.

I also knew the moment I did the google-fication privacy was out the window.

I was fine with LineageOS and would happily go back when my Pixel7a becomes EOL.

majestictechie,

Yeah, plus given you can get pro for free it really seems more like a announcement than an ad. Slippery slope though.

majestictechie,

It’s one of the reasons on my next rebuild I’ll be moving off Ubuntu. I always used Ubuntu because it was stable and you can find articles for almost anything. But there’s some great distros out there now and I don’t like Snaps.

I’m waiting for the next Build of POP OS which should be out soon and I’ll hop over to that probably in the new year.

majestictechie,

An eye patch, a parrot or a wooden leg will also do

majestictechie,

I’ve done this. I use Piped on Desktop and Phone and use SmartTube on my Chromecast

majestictechie,

4.1GB in the 90’s? DVD’s didn’t come out until mid-late 90’s and weren’t that common. It would likely have been a 700mb CD which were much more common.

majestictechie,

Ex-co-stars Deborah Ann Woll and Elden Hensen are not in the cast lineup

Wow this just keeps getting worse and worse

majestictechie,

For me that usually means I’m either choosing a new background or modifying the desktop.

If I’m watching porn. I keep it up. Assert dominance, like the dude in my porn.

majestictechie,

When I used to make notes because I don’t retain information instantly my boss said “Just don’t forget” I exclaimed: “Thanks, I’m cured!” The office got a laugh but it still bothers me that he thought it was a choice

majestictechie,

Wow that last bit sucks. I’m assuming you don’t use GIT and could roll back your changes or fork it from a previous point.

I think that would push me over the edge.

majestictechie,

Distros are like Kinks. I have my own and you have yours, I won’t judge.
