And since you won’t be able to modify web pages, it will also mean the end of customization, either for looks (ie. DarkReader, Stylus), conveniance (ie. Tampermonkey) or accessibility.
The community feedback is… interesting to say the least.
If you have a Pixel then install GrapheneOS. Zero trackers or bloat, and better security
Thanks for the suggestion. I’m currently using Nova (I can almost hear you groaning haha), AFAICT the DDG app is blocking any trackers in that.
Does GrapheneOS match Nova in features? Tbh the main one that I use Nova for is to take control of the home screen (removing the stupid google widgets that take up 1/3rd of screen), and letting me customize the amount of apps per row / column
You mean Nova Launcher? That’s an app you can use as a home screen (I’m using it right now actually.) GrapheneOS is a completely different OS that replaces the stock Android on your phone. If your phone is OEM unlocked you can install it very easily: https://grapheneos.org/install/web
You can block apps from accessing the internet completely in GrapheneOS. I have Nova Launcher blocked right now since it collects data, though without access to the Internet it can’t send that data anywhere. You can also block sensor access, useful for preventing apps from getting other data. In general a very big upgrade over stock android.
Oh I see, GOS is a rom? I’m really nervous about putting a custom rom on my phone, last time I tried that it permanently broke all the NFC on my samsung galaxy
