FairPhone 4.

Great phone that supports LineageOS, postmarketOS, CalyxOS and a few others.

The bootloader can be unlocked and re-locked without penalty. You can remove the battery without issue. It's designed to be repairable by the owner (but good luck finding parts has been my experience).

I love mine.

Hi dude, I think you might've posted this reply in the wrong thread :)

We are even federating content between posts now 🙂 Amazing stuff

part of the blame is the UI and auto refresh, I have been click thread that says one thing and then suddenly when open it up it becomes a different one. (I am the many tab user, so I just middle click and view a couple threads one by one. ) good thing lemmy's traffic is still quite low, otherwise it would be really hard to find the one you tried to read.

Yeah i had that yesterday where i was reading a thread, and then the topic changed while I was reading the page. The comments from the original thread remained, but the original post was replaced.

Weird bugs :)

that happened to me as well when I read this exact mega thread, it turned into one "AR in OR ....." thread in the post title.

There was a post about best LineageOS rec. I think they were trying to respond to that.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yeah, my Lemmy instance is doing something weird where I open the link, see the comments, and then the linked article changes while the comments stay the same.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

No worries! That’s a known bug, and happens to a lot of us. It’s on the list to be fixed.

This post is informative but I fail to see how it relates to reddit. Did you post under the wrong thread?

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago

Lemmy has been having some issues lately where responses aren't going to the thread the submitter actually clicked on

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Yeah, it's weird, my Lemmy instance is doing something where the thread is changing but the comments are to the original article that I clicked.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I also love my Fairphone, but what does this have to do with the reddit blackouts?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Nothing. Our Lemmy instance is sending the comments to the wrong thread.

bootloader can be... re-locked

Yes, but iirc they configured their verified boot setup incorrectly (using the keys Google provides publicly for debug/testing purposes instead of their own secret ones) so someone can easily bypass verified boot and install whatever OS or root kit or whatever they want on your phone if they get physical access to it without the phone detecting that and erasing your personal info. That's why GraphineOS doesn't support the fairphone IIRC.
