Thanks, this makes sense

Yes.

GOS has compatibility issues, but they are unrelated to the sandbox and can be fixed with some tweaking.

And I still believe in having a curated primary digital fingerprint.

Could you please elaborate? I know what digital footprint is, minimizing and compartmentalization techniques, but not primary and curated digital footprint.

Your argument is extrapolating way too much. You constructed this overcomplicated chain of thought that supposedly proves GOS sold out because... They got a manufacturer to build hardware that meets GOS requirements?

This is no different from ZOG, deep state or Blackrock conspiracy theories.

I could have sworn they had plans to ship Graphene phones

They do. They say it in their roadmap:

Hardware and firmware security are core parts of the project, but it's currently limited to research and submitting suggestions and bug reports upstream. In the long term, the project will need to move into the hardware space.

Most people will still use Instagram TikTok and such.

The beauty of Graphene is it's sandboxing and exploit protections are built precisely on assumption that the user will install every single piece of malware out there. The OS doesn't trust anything by default.

Perhaps there is a public library in your area that accepts donations? The one I live by is STARVING for support, they accept books, old computers, anything.

They do good work for the community too, like free tech literacy classes, chess for kids, etc.

But if you are dead set on an online NGO, then maybe archive.org? You have probably heard about their Wayback Machine, but they preserve books and other media too.

History ended sometime around 1990. It was determined at that time that civilization could not substantially change any further, for better or worse

Life did get substantially worse since 1990 though?

Mass surveillance, rise of tech billionaire class, unprecedented political polarization, KYC-rollout in banks.

Ecological crisis is accelerating with tens of thousands of dead in Europe due to recent heatwaves.

edit: also Germany, Japan, Russia and China openly remilitarizing after 80 years of relative peace. This is really bad.

This has nothing to do with flirting. They harass girls to feel in control and take out their dating frustration on someone else

This won't help PeerTube become mainstream either.

Hosting videos is extremely expensive, thus there is a financial incentive against hosting a PeerTube instance.

Unless PeerTube fixes the incentives, it won't be sustainable long-term.

Fairphone costs cheapest in carbon footprint and disruption caused to copper mining communities.

It's more expensive for you, sure, but it's the least costly option in grand scheme of things.
