Hmm, that is weird, I can’t really help on that as I haven’t really had any issues with it. Maybe see if there are any issues filed on github regarding the problem, and if you like it enough, maybe file an issue if you can imagine yourself using it!

Yeah that is a valid concern. I don’t use it for critical stuff so I don’t have to be as concerned but that is definitely something to be aware of!

I’m not 100% sure on the feature set, but Symphony (also available on f-droid) is a super nice local music player!

First thing I could think of is Automatisch. I use it for automations for one of my servers.

I run GrapheneOS without any Google Play Services. I don’t want to be locked into any software and I selfhost all my backups except having encrypted backups in one cloud provider for very important things to keep them off-site.

Most of the things people generally would consider drawbacks like lack of google assistant, chrome, play store, youtube etc. I consider to be a positive thing. I am in mostly full control of permissions and I have a siloed work user when I do need to access Slack and other apps for company use.
