It gives you the option to run Google Play and everything related to that in what they refer to as a sandbox, though, which is exactly what the name would suggest. It also gives you other options that don&#39;t exist on stock Android that I love, such as location permission per app, rather than that being limited to simply turning location either on or off for everything.<br/><br/>Also, to answer your other question, AFAIK, it is NOT available on any Android device (sadly, if you&#39;re asking me; I would love to see that). Unless they changed something, it is, however ironically, supported on Google Pixel hardware and nothing else. 2025-03-06T17:17:18Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqsz566jepne58wp5lmnmte9umrk6s9s7gtf2amnjmwwtjlcfptz5lszyp0alc8laaavcq3306p0t3ye85rgu3d07lv9af4r9s2s3k0hv3fpyajdxth In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsv6un7lkkk9k589jyhpv7skuuqu9xsn70mctvp8g8ngkzxrcvmglsch0kfe'>nevent1q…0kfe</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>GrapheneOS also randomizes your MAC address, so you have that protection if you use it. Otherwise, yeah, totally valid concerns like you said. I feel paranoid whenever I use public WiFi, anyway, which is why I usually don&#39;t. I don&#39;t care that I use GrapheneOS and that I&#39;m always hiding behind a VPN anyway; no matter how good I am, there&#39;s always someone else better. The existence of Good Edward Snowden implies the existence of Evil Edward Snowden; that&#39;s not a risk I&#39;m willing to take. Frankly, just like usual, my threat model is less concerned with cops and/or lawyers, and more concerned with the type of person who has never intentionally walked into a police station or a courthouse for any reason and who never will.

I reported said post and gave that (misinformation) as the reason.<br/><br/>This won&#39;t happen again, as I&#39;ll personally verify any and all information, to the extent I&#39;m able to do so, before boosting anything like this in the future. I also blocked the account as well as the entire server. I will continue to do exactly this regarding any and all accounts who lie about things that are this easy for anyone, even as lazy as I am, to verify. (I likely will only block the account and not the server, if I follow anyone on said server or vice versa; neither was true in this case, so no one lost anything by my blocking it.)<br/><br/>In this case, it was simple: they said they had &#34;verified reports&#34; that the Medicaid portal is down in all fifty states, so I checked mine. If the Medicaid portal is somehow down in every state except for mine, that&#39;s still terrifying, and it still makes it a lie when they said they&#39;d &#34;verified&#34; that it was down in all fifty.<br/><br/>Everything&#39;s getting confusing enough as it is; people lying on the internet is the last thing we need right now.<br/><br/>#Medicaid #uspol #misinformation #lies 2025-01-28T23:12:51Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqs203r4x48ahczztngfzrslj7m05uj6lwzdl2c0sc35r27twxwr77szyp0alc8laaavcq3306p0t3ye85rgu3d07lv9af4r9s2s3k0hv3fpyexpgvn In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqstxkjn9r6suzejrmasv4fm6cjkq7qqcqkeng8y4vk7zwmchf9fcns0xe728'>nevent1q…e728</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uAYx1b4GEV8">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uAYx1b4GEV8</a> 2025-01-27T19:17:13Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqsgmwdfhhhd0uzp36j8km5qzpgnqkd7fnrucjq7rcykjuycu4a7zggzyp0alc8laaavcq3306p0t3ye85rgu3d07lv9af4r9s2s3k0hv3fpyqr2yv7 I&#39;m not gonna lie, TikTok was never my thing. I also never particularly expected a huge influx to Mastodon following the ban, and it&#39;s restoring some amount of [EDIT: I mean, quite a bit of] optimism on my part now that that&#39;s apparently happening.<br/><br/>Hi, everyone who&#39;s here from TikTok.<br/><br/>Something you&#39;ll find different here (and love if you&#39;re anything like me), is that the &#34;algorithm&#34; is created directly by everyone who uses this thing. Boosting a post shows it to people who follow you. The more people boost the same post, the more people see it.<br/><br/>Also—and this isn&#39;t even aimed at any app specifically—Mastodon, unlike a lot of apps, is really good on mobile AND on desktop according to a lot of people, including me. Please log in to whichever instance you chose to make your account on in a web browser, and try it if you haven&#39;t already. <br/><br/>There are also accessibility features here that most other social media either lacks entirely or doesn&#39;t do nearly as well. Alt text, for example, is text added to media, that exists primarily for the purpose of describing said media to people who interact with Mastodon using an audio interface. Adding alt text to images is recommended, and posts containing images are likely to get more boosts with alt text than without.<br/><br/>It&#39;s also a good idea to write a brief (or not) introduction post and pin it on your profile.<br/><br/>I should probably also mention that I&#39;ve been looking through #TikTokRefugee and following anyone and everyone who&#39;s here from TikTok. So if you&#39;re here from TikTok and I just followed you, that&#39;s why.<br/><br/>Welcome to Mastodon.<br/><br/>EDIT: well, as of this edit, Orange Man has already exhumed TikTok from the open casket of its own design still breathing, as expected. To everyone who found Mastodon or the larger Fediverse because of the ban, I hope you stick around, regardless of whether or not you decide to return to whence you came.
