Why is that the Normies had shifted from "I have nothing to hide" to "Privacy is not real"??? (lemmy.ml)

I just want RISC-V and open drivers on everything.

Same, I wish all technology was shared and open :3

then you can forget any compatibility, but you know. I think privacy needs to be sensible, and it should not go in such ranges that highly limits usablity

I think there should be options, included for open source. I know there's different architectures but look at ARM devices, a lot of software is compiled for that architecture too. I'd much rather sacrifice a big software catalogue for more free and secure solutions. More software would be available as time go by.

In one way I already do, running a custom android ROM with no Google services, with no Google Play there's a lot of software I miss out on. I'm perfectly happy with that.
