The irony of using a Google Pixel and degoogling it for use
I don't know, if your goal is security Pixels have the best hardware and GrapheneOS the best software. It makes a lot of sense.
Sure, but it's still ironic. I'm not saying that it's a bad thing to buy a Google device just to degoogle it, but I think that does fit the definition of irony.
It's truly ironic, but its really a good choice, if you don't care about repairability and removable battery
Holy shit I just commented it was ironic, didn't even say it was bad or good and I got 12 down votes? I suppose the reddit hivemind mentality carries over to Lemmy as well
that, or bots. Apparently it's possible to view the list of downvoters, somehow (like through mbin I think), so you may be able to check what sort of content do they post, if any
