Financial slavery
I kinda took out my old phone (Sony) and flashed on that… And running parallel while I degoogle myself… Takes some time to change all email registrations from govt. And tax authorities to other external services like docs, banks and stuff…so doing dual phone for a fee weeks and then dropped main phone (fairphone5) to fully shift on e/os phone (sony)… And then will reset the ex-main phone (ff5) when degoogle is complete… I am too busy these days so it’s taking very long. (Also clean up Google inboxes and then back up vs. Backup and then clean up old inboxes is a struggle for me). Once fully complete I will flash ex-mainphone FF5 with e/os as well and switch to it And then use the 2nd phone to shift my partner and kids slowly. And in a year or next upgrades I think I might buy my family older pixel phones and flash e/os on them.
Maybe you should also get a side phone to start the project.
I have been through many setups, almost started using Markour… But then something about bullet journaling and the pen/paper relationship just had a magical touch to it… Then almost bought supernote… Then actually bought Boox Go 10.3… And I do my journaling BuJo style, my manga and book reading, and some writing with Bluetooth Logitech keys to go on it.
You could sync to cloud but I kinda use it as a paper notebook and reader/writer so I keep my backups local. Might do PDF backups to one of the clouds, they give you some options. But then again, a lot of my handwritten things get OCR/written into a document anyway… And after a year is done I rarely go back to the same diary anyway. And the important ones I save as PDF anyway…
This kinda setup is working for me so far.
You might be different… As we all are.
Interface tailoring, desktop tapestry, jamming all up in my pazaaz.
In the new plasma/Wayland it is pretty dope… I make 4 desktops per activity in a matrix shape and use 2 activities work and home and it’s pretty easy to zip a out in the OS and switch activities and desktops with muktifinger scroll, and shortcuts for desktops and activity switching…
Kaweco sports, LAmy, rotring, and pilot vanishing point, opus 88, and one from montblanc but that wasn’t a fountain pen.
What phone do you want to flash on? Is it in this list? https://doc.e.foundation/devices
