Capitalism is an inadequate reason for all this, because we had decades of capitalism without this level of shit and toxicity.

Yep, that's why the only way to be a good parent nowadays is to not give your kids smart phones or computers of their own. There was a time when it was kinda ok for them to have those devices, but that time is permanently in the past.

Sure, cooperation is clearly an evolutionary trait also, and seems like a much more useful one than greed. It seems that socities need a bit of both to thrive, or do you have examples of known societies that worked primarily on co-operation, even for the leaders?

I find it weird that he can be like that and still be alive. Does he bring security to absolutely everywhere he is?

e-OS is said to have the worst security of pretty much all Android distributions. Dunno if this is a fact, but apparently the upgrade schedules are not great.

No, it's the other way around. Fairphone needs to implement the things Graphene requires.

I used a Jolla when it was new. It was pretty decent, and in fact had many innovations. Apple brought gestures to their OS several years after. It was one of the first implementations of a phone UI implement on Wayland, and one of the first serious Linux non-Android phones. Might still be.

Unfortunately, being a pioneer does not always help. Application developers didn't get interested in it enough so it never really got any apps.

I wish they could implement the parts of the Pixel phones that allow GrapheneOS to be used.

I posted an amused and positive comment on the orange site about this and in 2 minutes got a threat about me getting hanged in the near future. Tech bros be panicing.

There's some justification for this idea since the people who buy the products advertised by ads are the source of the money that goes to the producers of the videos.
