Over the last year, I've wondered how to reduce my dependency on US tech giants.

@stovis the #fairphone6 even aims to provide support for the mainstream Linux kernel (Ubuntu Touch depends on an Android Linux kernel for now), so there is hope for a fully open #mobilelinux im the future.

@GeorgWeissenbacher In fact same experience to me.

@GeorgWeissenbacher Nice! Phones are computers after all. It's so silly that we have been collectively gaslighted to think about devices as "this is a gaming console/TV/phone/etc" when in reality it's all computers, and should be able to run any program.

@gemlog @GeorgWeissenbacher @signalapp No issues at all? Not even with banking apps?
-
@emmecola
I don't put banking on the phones, so I don't know, sorry.
I suppose I could log into my credit union's web site, but I don't know why I'd want to do that from my phone. I don't think they even have an app.
What do you do with it? -
@gemlog @GeorgWeissenbacher @signalapp Well, lots of things: checking transactions, recharging my prepaid card, paying stuff, monitoring my investments
In fact I rarely use my bank's website, I do everything via app -
@emmecola
I use my pc for things and I don't have investments to monitor or whatever. I pay the hydro and the gas on the pc.

@GeorgWeissenbacher @emmecola
I have heard that.
At one client I couldn't spend more than ten thousand CAD, but after I got a key with a code that changed every minute I could spend more. -
Interesting with Ubuntu touch!
I have pre-ordered a Jolla phone with Sailfish OS -
