私、気になります！
Sure, so let me export my data from another PC or phone. If they wanted you to have message history, they would. So I’ll respectfully disagree.
Why can she do WhatsApp but no Signal?
It’s already needing to convince people to use Signal, why also making it hard for, let’s say, your grandma.
Because his grandma can’t type a password 30 characters long just to restore her messages.
They are so smart and still make some choices that are so, so, *so dumb*. ‘No history on a new PC for you, it’s a ״feature״’. Seriously? c’mon.
Material Files is the best, IMO.
I think they mean it’s technically not a ‘FOSS’ app, but instead a ‘source-available’ app.
It’s basically Tor Browser without using the Tor network.
Have a skewer in the middle.
Every time I think about my Windows installation I think about AHK and get a little sad. It’s the only software I regret leaving. But then I remember my comfy i3 config, and get over it.
I think you *should* think about moving to more FOSS-friendly OSes, but in time, down the line, not this instant. Maybe the next devices you’ll own, or when you feel ready, comfortable, with privacy; anyway, GL!
E: wording
Other awesome FOSS (Free and Open-Source Software) lists for your other OSes (computer/tablet).
I’d start small, a lot of people would tell you to do some drastic changes to you life, but, like every other thing you have in life, start small, or you’ll might fail.
I’d suggest starting here.
Shelter is better, BTW; but Insular is good option too.
If you don’t want Google *device* you could get any other device supported by LOS but is means no official GOS on your phone.
To update your Play Store apps you can use Aurora Store (notice that Aurora *Droid* is completely different app).
OP, CentOS and CentOS Steam are two *very* different beasts, you don’t want Stream.
I wouldn’t go for CentOS either because you’ll have to replace it anyway.
I’m mentioning that because you can download the old CentOS, but like the commenter above me said, you can do Alma or Rocky.
I would go for Debian, but that’s a personal preference.
No, no, I’ll call the manager, please don’t sue!!!
