 Peopple don't care privacy
 @mimecar [Peopple don't care privacy], I disagree, I think they do, but only if you market it correctly.
 It's a feature, not a necessity
 Regarding Fuchsia, it is not GPL. Meaning no sources from hardware vendors. Meaning everything locked even more down. So when this happens custom roms will most probably have even harder time getting their os running on most devices.
 Fuschia is nothing but an experiment
 @samzn [Fuschia is nothing but an experiment], Who knows Mann what wil happen
[15:54] <ubptgbot> <mark alexa> @mimecar [Peopple don't care privacy], People increasingly care about privacy. There are people of course who will always say "I don't care what Google does with my data as long as I don't have to pay for using Google's services" but popularity of privacy-minded services / software is on rise. Just look up how many people switched from
[15:54] <ubptgbot>  Google to DuckDuckGo.
 Yeah, but if they change search engines but keep Google's services for mail or similar things, it's not much use.
[15:56] <ubptgbot> <mark alexa> It's really disturbing how much Google knows about its users. It's no exaggeration to say that Google knows things about its users their spouses and partners don't know about.
 who wants another google os anyway
 unless they are google fan
 @austenite [unless they are google fan], Google doesn't make systems for fans
 I feel Amazon and eBay are the new Google.
 there are google fans, these are custom rom communities that also flash Google app suite
 @austenite [there are google fans, these are custom rom communities that also flash Google a …], .01% of the userbase, woo.
 @samzn [.01% of the userbase, woo.], what? almost every custom rom user(lineage to rr) flash opengapps
[16:00] <ubptgbot> <mark alexa> @mimecar [Yeah, but if they change search engines but keep Google's services for mail or s …], True .... if you're starting to be aware of what Google and other big players are doing then merely changing your search engine isn't enough. Gmail is very powerful source of information about people and 30% of all data Google collects about
[16:00] <ubptgbot> you is from your usage of Gmail. That's why I educated all my friends and loved ones to ditch Gmail and to either switch to ProtonMail or some other privacy-minded alternative. Same goes with one's usage of smartphone.
 @austenite [what? almost every custom rom user(lineage to rr) flash opengapps], Custom ROM user are .01% of the userbase.
[16:01] <ubptgbot> <mark alexa> Ubuntu Touch has approximately 1800 users. Is that correct ?
 @samzn [Custom ROM user are .01% of the userbase.], so the rest 99.99 already have google app suite
 @austenite [so the rest 99.99 already have google app suite], Yup, google doesn't make systems for "enthusiasts", they do it for the broad audience
 Isnt it down to the idividual, some people have apps that they 'cant live without'.  This was not for me.  I was lineage and fdroid before moving to UT.
 @samzn [Yup, google doesn't make systems for "enthusiasts", they do it for the broad aud …], the point is who cares, that doesnt mean 'broad audience' is intelligent and everyone has to follow them
 and everybody wants everything for no price, so they choose google which provides many services at no cost (such as GCP ) where many custom roms are being built
 reminder that we have https://t.me/UBportsOF for such lengthy conversations not directly related to UT
 @zubozrout [Regarding Fuchsia, it is not GPL. Meaning no sources from hardware vendors. Mean …], This is really no different from current kernel being GPL. Manufacturers already use proprietary drivers, and don't comply with the GPL. So Fuschia being Apache isn't really going to change anything in that respect.
 Thanks for always being helpful Rodney 🙃
 @dohbee [This is really no different from current kernel being GPL. Manufacturers already …], At least they release their kernel sources, you can edit and compile it and use the proprietary drivers with that. That will no longer work. Not to mention the majority if not every current custom phone OS is Linux based and Fuchsia is not.
 @zubozrout [At least they release their kernel sources, you can edit and compile it and use …], The Fuscia kernel source is available. But it doesn't matter for us. We support Linux and not Fuchsia.
 Building a distro on top of Fuchsia is not what we're doing with UT
 Harware vendors always make changes to the kernel. Those won't get released. Anyway, you are correct. Just saying that when Android is Fuchsia based (if ever) custom os on a Fuchsia phone will be quite a challenge.
 they aren't getting released most of the time anyway, which is why we can only support so few devices
 but custom ROMs will still be a thing, because most of those don't need to change the kernel anyway. they just need to build AOSP images with whatever custom apps they have and such
 but again, nothing to do with UT at that point, and we can't support it anyway
 @zubozrout [Harware vendors always make changes to the kernel. Those won't get released. Any …], Nah
 The SoC will have a Linux BSP

 We're pretty much an exception.
 @DC7IA [The shocking truth about Google: People don't care.], They care about the wrong shit
 @USERMANE_OXLONG [They care about the wrong shit], Ubports is a niche that fills the needs we have, not to say those who aren't using it are "wrong"

 @samzn [<reply to media>], you've been asked many times to stop using these stickers in this community, yet you continue to be disrespectful by persisting, and by stating unhelpful misinformation to people asking questions about UT when they come in here. please delete this sticker and stop.
 @mateosalta [yeah, so i think it comes back to a purposful design choice then], i don't think so. that is an assumption
 Why are you so aggressive, jesus christ
 why are you posting white supremacist stickers in here.
 ??
 What
 ??
 @samzn [??], in the USA the "Pepe the Frog" memes have been coopted by so called "alt-right" ethno-nationalist trolls - so some folks find the images offensive these days.
 I don't know anything about that
 @TotalSonic [in the USA the "Pepe the Frog" memes have been coopted by so called "alt-right" …], the creator of Pepe has even separated himself from it at this point, it's so bad
 @samzn [I don't know anything about that], well, now you know the back story
 Rodney keeps attacking me for any action I try to do and it's honestly disgusting
 I don't know if he has any personal grudge or if I have done anything, but if I have, I am sorry
 nobody keeps attacking you
 you keep being offended when people are asked to respect the community
 You keep calling me a liar when I am just answering some confusion.
 [Edit] You keep calling me a liar when I am just answering to some confusion.
 This isn't the first time
 @samzn [Rodney keeps attacking me for any action I try to do and it's honestly disgustin …], Rodney is an administrator here, and a regular contributor to the improvements in UT's code - so what he requests is good to heed if you wish to continue to post.
 i did not call you a liar.
 And this is escalating beyond measures, again.
 then please leave
 if you can't stay on topic, avoid posting trollish/racist memes, and can't respect the community's rules, why are you here?

 I don't think having a fuss over stickers is a goos idea
 [Edit] I don't think having a fuss over stickers is a good idea
 it wasn't sent with any offense meant
 @NotKit [it wasn't sent with any offense meant], that is an assumption. you wouldn't go walking around germany waving a nazi flag and be all "no offense meant" as if it somehow granted you the right to do it.
 especially after having been asked repeatedly to not do so every previous time you did it
 Okay, you don't like cartoon frogs, I got that.
 I'll respect that.
 Now if you could, I would appreciate if you could stop being so acid towards people.
 i don't like symbols of white supremacy/nationalism/naziism/etc…
 you are getting personal for no reason
 I'm not the one that escalates it every time
 But it doesn't matter anymore
 That pack of stickers has a negative connotation. It is enough not to use them.
 "please don't do this thing" is not an escalation
 if you think it is, perhaps the problem lies within yourself
 I do not see the reason that this conversation is getting out of hand.
 @dohbee [if you think it is, perhaps the problem lies within yourself], So you just mentioned to not get personal, which I never have except asking if I ever done you a thing and you hint at a personal attack towards me.
 @mimecar [I do not see the reason that this conversation is getting out of hand.], Yepppppp
 JFC
 @samzn [But it doesn't matter anymore], that sticker was offically desiginated a hate symbol by anti-defamation legue, plus the creator of the frog was suing people for using it
