I just found Futo keyboard. Works very well and has offline voice input that works great.

On Android, Mull offers more extensions, unless that's changed recently

I did use F-Droid, now I use Obtanium. I use Mull Browser as well, but I really like Fulguris Browser better

How did you configure the RethinkDNS. I tried it but I don't know how to configure the DNS not to block all my internet traffic.
nebulaone@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 2y
Firewall -> universal firewall rules. Or you can run it in dns mode only if you dont want to block any apps.
filister@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 2y
I tried the universal firewall rules and apart from block port 80, I didn't manage to configure it in a way to not lose connectivity. I also use Adguard DNS, which I set manually on my phone, so the DNS only mode isn't very beneficial for me either.
nebulaone@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 2y
The dns only option can be selected by tapping the arrow icon next to the start/stop button.

Rethink was okay for me, latest update seems to quit a lot, and it doesn't warn me, just gone.
Back to DNS66, which at least doesn't do that.
nebulaone@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 2y
DNS66 is also very good, but the last update was 3 years ago.

Thank you, I agree with that concern. I need to get an older version of Rethink that doesn't crash or is vulnerable to Stingray ops.
