          Really? Which apps don’t habe ads anymore after the switch? I perdonally just don’t use apps with ads (all apps from F-Droid), so this is rather new to me.

            Well for example I use sync for lemmy in free version and I don’t have any ads . but I can t use sync ultra because that an in app paid option , and since I don’t have the google services on my phone that don’t work.

              Huh, never heard of Sync… But interesting that thus disables ads in these apps.

                Sync was a popular 3rd app for reddit and I used it until they block it after that I came from reddit to lemmy when there was only jerboa . When sync for lemmy came out I re switched to it because I was more familiar with the ui .

    Hell yeah. I switched from iOS to a Pixel running GrapheneOS a month ago and I’ve been loving it.

    Degoogled my pixel. I will use that after my surgery 😄

    Or am I just weird for thinking it is a nice phrase to use for transitioning.

        Yes, but also as a convenient way to not have to talk about certain bodyparts that tend to give us dysphoria.

        Like: I feel so much better after my pixel was degoogled.
