  • Both graphene and LineageOS are, o am afraid, still Android and still very much bound to what Google does of AOSP.

    No AOSP means also no graphene and no LineageOS. They don’t develop an OS, they adapt and fix what Google does. They don’t have the resources or manpower to keep developing android without Google effort.

    So if Google really locks android up, those are NOT valid alternatives. Also, even today those without Google Apps and play integrity certification means you cannot use many banking apps, government issued apps, McDonald app (joking, but true) and so on.

    The future is even bleaker than what you are envisioning. A real Linux phone is the only answer and we are far from there.








  • Why?

    People had less technology but where not less smart than today. If all, they where used to be smarter than us actually because they had less tech.

    Its just paper towels, that pull out one after the other with a stupid fold trick. Anybody even 600y ago would spot that after a brief looking at it.

    No, they would probably be curious about the paper itself, but that would be it.

    The fact that medieval times where “dark” its a 19th century invented lie. Actually, it’s one of the most vibrant and brilliant times of all ages, where economy thrived and people grow was substantial (until 14th century climate changes and pestilences), low population had many advantages and drawbacks. Old roman technology kind of disappeared but the society overall was far from “dark” at all.





  • No experience with tailscale, but I have opnSense on a firewall appliance like yours and run two wireguard networks one from the opn itself and one from my home server, which is in the DMZ. They all work just fine…

    They have different scope and remote peers, but both use my VPS as enter gateway since I am CGNATted.
