I think DRM on Kobo books is dependent on what the publisher requests or something like that. The few I have bought don't have DRM from what I can tell.

I would love to set up mine again but I need to replace the battery and I'm not sure where to buy a new one. Any suggestions?

I've been using GrapheneOS on my phones since the Pixel 3 and I have not had this issue when using Verizon. For the other person maybe it was a different carrier? Or some issue a while ago with that carrier and GrapheneOS.

I don't think you need a Google account to use Sandboxed Play Services in general. Maybe some specific things that require you to be logged into the Play Store but overall I can use Android Auto and other things I need without being logged in.

What did you find you needed to be logged in for?

Probably a Takahē in New Zealand but in captivity.

I too saw a kea in the wild near the Milford Sound! Sadly I didn't see any of the others in the wild. The takahē was also in Zealandia.

Yeah I saw the takahē in Zealandia and one other zoo. Would have been cool to see in the wild if possible in the preservation areas the have.

But out of curiosity what apps didn't work for you that were deal breakers?

Works for me on Verizon and has for 5+ years. Google Fi even works as I've tried that with a different phone on GrapheneOS.

The problem I had with products like Airalo is that if you are traveling and need to actually call a hotel, excursion, or any company in the country you are visiting you cannot do that with just a data eSIM like Airalo.

Sure you could use WiFi calling maybe but in my experience when I really needed to call someone I had to switch back to my original carrier and incur the $10/day fee.

Alright boys, I've been converted to the light side and have installed F-Droid. Now what?

Basically title. I waited on installing F droid for a long time because my phone threw many scary warnings when I tried a long time ago. But now I have it, and I got some fossify apps, but since there is no “Editor’s Picks” on F- droid I dont really know where to go from here. ...

That’s a good starter list. However it should be noted that all the Simple apps should be avoided now and instead people should use the forked versions from Fossify.

See the following post for more information: ForgottenFlux : *deleted by creator* in Open Source

Thank you! I had no idea development had stopped but I see that now in their GitHub repository.

My problem with Symphony and other music apps like Auxio is that they don’t work with audiobooks and file types like m4b. Simple Music Player worked for me when playing all my audio files but now I am waiting for the Fossify version to be published.
