This is AFTER debloating all the MS bs as much as I can.
The amount of MS telemetry is just mindboggling.
Desktop linux doesn’t have any of this. And one day we’ll get real linux on phones too (with full featured support).
Canonical Ubuntu does or at least did though. Caused a shitstorm years ago despite it being opt-in back then. I don’t know how they do it nowadays.
KDE also has opt-in usage tracking but I trust that project enough to believe it’s really only for improving the software.
I think most software like this grows to a certain size and then they need the telemetry to identify issues. There’s so many hardware configurations and most people don’t submit bug reports or opt into their configuration being shared. It’s not an inherently bad thing, just some companies are taking more than they need.
Nah, we will never have a GOOD Linux-phone. And if, it’s most likely NOT without tracking and whatnot. Why should any company put money into a thing they can’t control after sale? Sadly so, i might add.
You understand that it’s not just about the software, right? Don’t you think there’s a reason there still isn’t any?
