Clicks Communicator is phone purpose-built for taking action and communicating in a noisy world with deeper context, versatile input and greater control in a compact design.
While I admire that, most people, myself included, have way too much going on in life to get into all the underground tech stuff. And im done convincing friends or family to change. Its never going to happen.
If I only run linux on all my pcs and also get a light phone, thats great, but everyone else I communicate with is on corpo net, so really it makes no difference. The population is dumb and tired, and there’s no way back. People refuse to even look at Terminal if they had to fix something in linux. They’ve been spoon fed, and theyre patience is long gone. Its over, and there’s a very very tiny subset of us who can or will resist.
Also you are quite well spoken and I appreciate your comment, but to a normal person you would likely come off as a complete nutjob-not to be mean, but thats how it is.
I decline the implicit invite to complicity in the degeneracy via defeatism. ;)
I appreciate the good luck, and acknowledgement of the difficulty of the situation.
We can still mend this.
For one example for a glimmer of hope, the FSF announced a few months back, https://www.fsf.org/news/librephone-project to make low level free software for phones. Couple that with those seeking to make free software operating system interfaces for phones, and those seeking to make phones with right to repair… and things are not so dark. Increasing awareness still grows. The tighter the rotters squeeze, the more slip through the fingers. We are in a lot of trouble, but we can still mend this.
The recent changes to M$ windoze has created another wave of windows refugees… many of them are finding it astonishing how much their new GNU+Linux operating system respects them, … some are even getting into a Free Software philosophy, eager to learn, to give back, asking not what linux can do for them, but what they can do for free software, getting out of the atrophied-ability trap of consumerist stockholm syndrome.
More integrity in sounding like a nut-job, planting honest seeds, hoping one day they take root, than deploying the skills I learned in advertising to manipulate people. All part of the message, by example. Maybe a few more nutjobs will drop their masks that perpetuate the normalised degeneracy.
Anyhoo,
Thanks for that reply. Good stuff. Well… better than an attack for being a nutjob windbag. ;D

Mendwards! :)
That is good! There is some hope. Not in my town or friend group but hopefully elsewhere !
You must be a very interesting person. Thanks for the reply
