    Mixed opinions, but I generally like what Elon is doing. The end product will probably be something I'll like a lot!

    Wtf? What did you do, Elon?

    Promotes Tesla fanboy posts ignoring that I specifically set "Tesla" as completely irrelevant topic to me, and muted absolute majority of those Tesla fans. Their posts keep popping out regardless.

    Trashy billionaire club that posts hate speech.

    It's not perfect by any means. But in 2024, it's not an echo chamber. You can't say that about most platforms these days. Most are either censor anything they disagree with or are far-right. X has a good mix.

    It's actually kind of funny.

    If you look through the reviews here, pre-X (Elon Musk), everyone was hating on Twitter for censoring content and shadowbanning people for posting ideas that the Twitter overlords disagreed with.

    Now everyone seems to be hating on X for NOT censoring...

    Many free features became behind a paywall, the possibility to edit, more characters to edit, and I expect more and more to come, ensh*tification as it best in the name of profit.

    It has become a social network with a very bad reputation. It only has N@zis, incels and right-wing extremists. The platform has no more moderation and criminals are free to post child p@rn@graphy, harass people and commit fraud. I do not recommend it. Uninstalling it.

    Utterly useless for anyone but Musk and his Neo-Nazi fanbois.

    The new owner is not shy about putting his thumb on the scale. The algorithm aligns with his ideology and preferences. Twitter was already in decline before he bought it, but X is now little more than a (geo-)political instrument, honed to amplify mis- and disinformation. An EU ban of X can't come soon enough...

    I've had the best experiences using Calyx and iodé

    I absolutely love it! The clean interface, combined with robust privacy and security features, makes it a reliable companion for my daily tasks. I genuinely feel no desire to return to Google. The addition of MicroG and the many features I cherish enhance my experience even further. I also like apps like GCam, Firewall, Onion collection, Hypatia, Calyx VPN, Riseup VPN, K-9 Mail, DAVx, and etc....

    As a suggestion for the future, I wish if possible it if MicroG services could be made an optional...

  • Any of the other options for OSes other than GrapheneOS would be a downgrade to security and privacy.

    One of the goals of DivestOS was to provide some security patches to older devices and additional mitigations for exploitable devices and Android versions. This harm reduction would be reversed by choosing LineageOS, CalyxOS, or /e/OS.

    GrapheneOS is the only option there that would provide any (and substantial) hardening and privacy improvements.
