These cancerous fuckers from another sub perma banned my 10 year old account. Because I only asked any content creators like Joey Swoll that comment on bad gym etiquettes. No explanation, no response, just nothing.. Reddit is even worse than X, Facebook. I hope it dies off completely as it's a tumor growing on the internet.

I am using dongles on my 10 year old car and it never failed me once, there are even Bluetooth dongles. You could keep a dongle dedicated for your car and just use that. My sister replaced her car stereo with an Android Auto compatible display and it works great. I don’t disagree that removing the jack as a dumb idea. But you’re giving crap to a company that does 90% great in the hardware department. I’m giving FP a pass and overlook this.

The did one thing wrong. It was a mistake to remove it, but honestly you should forget about the Samsungs, Googles and Apples of this world. Fairphone does A LOT of things right. I can't stand this type of nonsensical argument anymore.

There isn’t barely any good alternative for smartphones. Tech companies and CEO’s are now what the Church and the Pope were in the Middle Ages. Both keep the masses dumb, ignorant and hateful.

Great can we also take the innocents killed in Afghanistan and Iraq to trial? Why is it that pathetic American soldiers fight a war with the best tech and weapons, and somehow still feel like they’re the sad little victim that suffered.

At this point, I just need a community device. And I’ll gladly pay monthly for an OS that has the basics with a web browser and full privacy.

Just you wait until EU representatives start licking American/Trump buttholes and reverse every sanction or law imposed on US tech.

I went ahead and installed the beta. I thought I’d hate it, but I’m honestly very surprised how beautiful and clean it looks. No problems with readability or whatsoever. I’m on the latest public beta and I don’t notice any phone breaking bugs. If they manage to fix the small things, it might just be a very stable release this year.

Tell me, what should people use instead? Should I train my own pigeon to send messages?

There is hardly any option that's not Google or Apple. At least the brown tongue Tim Cook (from all the Trump ass licking) isn't Google, the bigger evil. The day I have a viable option, is the day I'll throw Apple in the garbage.

I haven't encountered a troll yet and the encountered bots so far are useful repost bots. Reddit is just filled with obnoxious people that I couldn't stand, moderators with small dick energy that moderate to whatever rules they prefer (like permanent bans for using very common non-targeted slurs) and just annoying trolls on subs like WorldNews and Canada that get away with racist shit all the time.

 

Update 2: After excruciating 20 hours or so I finally managed to download all my photos. I cancelled my subscription, shut down my account and wish you guys all the best!

Update: I assume Safari puts tabs in sleep mode after it doesn't detect activity. As long as I keep my screen unlocked and use Firefox, I can download files. Although, they're very slow since there is not an actual export option. In my opinion, Drive needs a lot of work and Proton needs to make it easier to export out of all their apps!

Sorry, I have to vent right now. I am really sad that I will probably lose my pictures of 2024. I have a Proton Drive subscription, but it's been giving me a lot synchronization problems. I won't go into detail on them, because I have already spent so much time with Support to find a solution. There just isn't any and it's unclear they will ever fix it.

So I decided to cancel my subscription on Proton Drive at least. Turns out it is practically impossible to download my media from Proton Drive. This is my sixth attempt downloading media and it keeps getting canceled close to the end. There is no other export option than to manually select media, download them through the browser and pray that it will finish.

I tried with 500 items, as support recommended me. It didn't work. So I worked my way down to 400, now to 300 and it keeps failing. I don't know how to get my pictures away from this terrible Drive app. It's not doable to work in very small batches. I don't have this time on hand and Proton can't offer any solution either. I cannot even downgrade my subscription if it's using up more than the 15GB storage that they offer.

After I find a way to export all my media, I will close down my Proton account. This is not the way of doing business. In the best I managed to easily download all my media from Google Photos and iCloud. I regret leaving iCloud and at this point, just invest the money in self-hosting solution.

Never Proton Again
