  • Yeah, Micay tried to dox me on Reddit at one point, and sought to have me banned from multiple privacy and De-Googling subreddits too. He likes to use a lot of sock puppet accounts to attack people in packs. He actually succeeded in getting me briefly suspended from r/degoogle, because the mods there seem to have a “close” relationship with him, even giving the GOS devs a special tag to use, but only them. My crime? I brought up using a feature in CalyxOS that was also available in GOS too. The truly original and unforgivable sin it seems… Micay worked his hardest to ruin Nick Merrill’s CalyxOS, and reputation too, but to little avail outside of the GOS cult, which already had their views set. You could never mention CalyxOS there without being attacked by them. Hell, even LineageOS wasn’t spared. I’m surprised DivestOS wasn’t attacked, except they bend the knee and tell people to use GOS when they can.

    While I’d love to try out those features of GOS sometimes, I won’t use it so long as the inmates run the asylum there. I’ll be sticking with CalyxOS, and if that stops being an option then I’ll just switch fully to LineageOS and harden it myself. I guess /e/OS / Murina is another option too.



  • Yeah, Voyager really is the best interface overall. The PWA is so good, that it’s hard to even realize it’s not a native app. By far the smoothest PWA I’ve ever used.

    I really wanted Eternity to work out, being that I loved (and still love thanks to Revanced patching) Infinity for Reddit. But it does seem like Eternity was too much to try and convert over.


  • WebOS really was so hard ahead of its time. A card based interface, gesture-based navigation, unified and always online email and account systems. There were many things WebOS did that we take for granted now, yet they did it no less than 5 years before Android or iOS. Really it was just the Palm Pre’s hardware (I had a Palm Pre Plus) that held it back. Some aspects of it were already a bit dated, even in 2010.
