This is a perfect comment because it describes exactly what happened (from their perspective) in the most succinct way possible. 💯

a subset of play store features, notably a client for GCM/FCM so push notifications work

So are push notifications then reliant on Google? Wondering not just for de-Googleings sake but for privacy too.

Thanks for this comment. There is LineageOS with microG pre-installed and it sounds like that might be easier for a noob like me.

If I install microG, will I have to set up a FOSS version of those services myself, or is it all included? Are there any other basic funcionalities that need to be installed seperately?

I remembered unified nlp from a few years back but when I checked again I noticed it's been 9 years lol so something has probably changed.

TIA

Ah, alright. I guess being in the Epstein files isn't really all that bad then.

Nice, I'll add that to the list. Being anti-genocide makes you

  1. Antisemitic

  2. A tankie

(not sure you guys know what either of those mean anymore tbh the way you apply it to everything lol)

No, "being in the Epstein files", as a turn of phrase, means you rape kids.

 

I have been thinking of getting away from the Google ecosystem (while still staying on Adroid) and microg has come onto my radar. I understand that it's a service that tricks other apps into thinking Google Play Services is installed on the phone, thus allowing the app to work on a phone that does not have Play Services.

How do I find out which apps these are, exactly?

From what I have read, not all apps from the Play Store require Play Services, and exactly none of the apps from F-Droid require Play Services... is that correct?

The goal of this question is to figure out if I need LineageOS with microG or just LineageOS. I have moved off Google services already but still use some mainstream apps like WhatsApp, Snapchat, and TikTok.

TIA

Normal people when they realize leftists were right:

But fr, they were right and we need to start listening to them. First thing to do is unite!

Time for Dems to shut down the government and call a general strike. Unify the people. Kind of like what Biden did with the railway strike in 2022, but the opposite.

 
 
 

Nobody should appropriate the value created by another.

(I think only Marxists get the joke. I'll try it on a lib next time I see one, but I predict they'll just be like "yea you're right- capitalism stays, taxes on the rich go").

In July 2024, B'Tselem published Welcome to Hell, a report on the treatment of Palestinian inmates in Israel's prison system and their confinement in torture camps under inhuman conditions. The report presented testimonies from 55 Palestinian men and women held in Israeli prisons and detention facilities since 7 October 2023.

The testimonies revealed the outcomes of a rushed process in which Israeli prison facilities, both military and civilian, were transformed into a network of camps dedicated to the abuse of inmates as policy. A space of this kind, in which anyone who enters is condemned to deliberate, severe, and unrelenting pain and suffering, functions de facto as a torture camp.

The present update reviews the situation of Palestinian prisoners held by Israel up to the beginning of January 2026. The transformation of Israeli prisons into torture camps for Palestinian inmates must be understood in the context of Israel's coordinated onslaught on Palestinians as a collective since October 2023, most prominently through the ongoing genocide in Gaza. The foundations of the regime shaped since the State of Israel was established, which are enabling the genocide in Gaza, rampant violence and ethnic cleansing in the West Bank and the persecution of Palestinians citizens of Israel, are also shaping the treatment of prisoners. First and foremost among them is the dehumanization of Palestinians as a group and the employment of extreme violence against them (for further reading, see B'Tselem July 2025 report Our Genocide).

This update revisits the categories of abuse listed in the original report, using them to assess the current situation and any new developments. It is based on 21 testimonies given to B'Tselem by Palestinians released under the agreement between Israel and Hamas in October 2025 or in the months preceding it. Many released prisoners are too afraid to give testimony, as – according to the witnesses we spoke to – Israeli authorities threatened to re-arrest anyone who shared information about their experiences in prison. The threats were issued both before and after the prisoners were released, illustrating how Israel uses deprivation of liberty as a key means of oppressing Palestinians.

That's why it's important to maintain the law, and for the law to apply equally to everyone. Here is a picture of libs starting to understand that:
