I’m definitely framing it that way and I was mainly looking to use insight from others in addition to the research I’m doing.

I wasn’t aware that the rivalry could be so nasty between all three.

Thanks for your input.

Noted, thank you for that insight.

I’m going to consider the Pixel Tablet and GrapheneOS as well.

I saw DivestOS was discontinued and that was disappointing, I had used some of its apps. Thanks for your perspective on their proprietary cloud and programs, I’ll keep that in mind

I see.

I’ll bookmark both of those as well, as similarly I prefer investing time learning more about the core of Marxism and furthering my own deprogramming. Thank you.

If I may ask off topic from what you’re replying to, is this book worth reading, out of curiosity?

As a better alternative to what I was using prior (Reddit and other stuff). Came to Lemmy.ml as it seemed like a good generalist option whose top categories include open source programs and technology, to which I’ve enjoyed reading further into.

Additionally, I didn’t know Lemmygrad exists, however I’m super glad it does. I regularly browse it, and through doing so, I’ve corrected several misconceptions I had held prior, gotten even more insights into history, put together a reading list to finally delve deeper (which I need to keep reminding myself to start), and I’ve renewed efforts to try to find a way to organize.

I use Fennec F-Droid with uBlock Origin, Privacy Badger, Decentraleyes, and HTTPS Everywhere.

Though sometimes I’ve contemplated switching to the Guardian Project’s Firefox Klar
