I have a good experience with PocketBook.

At least you can still get a functional and minimalist homepage on Firefox by disabling it.

You can do that on Edge too btw.

Interesting to see that vast the majority of the people here use LineageOS.

It’s the more stable and bug-free ROM in my experience.

I am using Google wallet. It works with the Play Integrity Fix Magisk module. You just have to update it from time to time.

Lineage OS 21 (Android 14) on Poco X3 NFC.

Win + V should bring up cliboard history which is basically the same pop-up just on a different tab.

Can’t Python be translated into machine code and packaged into a binary? I swear I have no experience in OS development, just curious.

Will the permissions still be allowable by goinv to the app info page from the settings, clicking the 3 dot menu in the corner and taping to allow restricted settings?

You can just flash NikGapps after flashing the ROM (EDIT: I am not sure if the SONY’s flashing tool will allow you to do such things) to get Google services working. But if you want to pass the Play integrity and SafetyNet checks you will also have to root. It is a bit of a paradox that you have to root to pass these checks (maybe there’s a non-root solution I am not aware of, but I doubt that). For me the Play Integrity Fix Magisk module from chiteroman works well (Lineage OS v21). It just has to be updated once in a while.

Breezy weather also allows you to select weather data from multiple sources. It even let’s you select which type of data to get from which provider.

It could be nice, but also annoying in some cases. I would at least want to have an option to allow all the time.

I would like to see the same thing for clipboard read access. In the same way app has to prompt you for location permission it would have to prompt you to read the clipboard and you would actually have the option to allow it all the time which is handy for some apps like clipboard manager, or don’t allow it alltogether which is handy for some random apps you don’t trust.

In this case, I think it’s protecting apps from other apps. No secret screen recording going on while you’re looking at bank statements, etc.

I think with all the engineers at Google developing Android they could come up with a solution of how to discern whether the act of screenshot was triggered solely by the user, or an app on the phone. They are the ones in power of all the APIs that allow other apps to capture the screen content in the first place. Maybe I am simplifying it too much, but this seems as a bad excuse to me.

Maybe it would be too hard of a solution since there’s so many ways third party apps could capture screen content (including for example the Android accessibility service which also allows apps to read content of the screen and even simulate screen touches and gestures which many automation apps make use of) that blocking the screenshot alltogether is by far the most feasible solution.

I didn’t try that, but I think it is not possible, but since the Android is running on top of Linux, you just connect to your bluetooth headphones using the under Linux and it will have the same result.

On Linux there’s also the Waydroid project which might be a more safe option and actually runs pretty well on my budget machine considering it runs on top of another OS.

BlissOS might do?

They state x86_64 on their downloads page, so it is probably for 64 bit systems only, but OP’s tablet being from 2021 should be 64 bit.

I don’t recommend Fedora as a distro for this as they do not have the Maliit keyboard in the repos and you will have to build it yourself.

Last time I tryed Fedora KDE few months back it had a Maliit keyboard, but I was using the desktop version of the shell.

MacOS is open-source in its core?
