Hi there!

Since you got some negative feedback here, I want to keep it cool:

  • If you only want to show ads on YOUR system/instance, I think you can go on and do that. Your users can decide if they are fine with using a service that is monetizing via ads. Just make it clear to potential users BEFORE they sign up.
  • If you start federating your ads to other instances on the Fediverse, you will be banned pretty quickly, so do NOT do this.
  • Maybe think about a mixed approach of donations and ads, so users could work actively against being flooded with more and more ads.

Atomkraftwerke sind auch sehr gut Grundlastfähig - wenn man auf die Risiken und Umwelteinflüsse scheißt.

(Und nein: Wir BRAUCHEN keine AKWs!)

You see my life as lacking [...] based on what you like

I think that is exactly the case here. People just can't comprehend how a life other than their own would look like.

I guess that also falls under the Dunning Kruger Effect?

Glad it works for you! 💚

Do you now have some complete meals "standardized" and you alternate between these recepies? Or have you more "streamlined" how you prepare invidual building blocks (e.g. beans) and you mix them just how you feel at any specific day?

on Where can I install MicroG? · c/privacy · 8 pts · 114d

As @unexposedhazard@discuss.tchncs.de already pointed out, there might be a misunderstanding of what MicroG "is". (Or maybe you are fully aware, but it is not clear to us...)

MicroG is NOT just an app you install & go. It is a deeply embedded part of your system you REPLACE the entire Google Service stack (GAPPS) with.

In theory, it is possible to "ungoogle" an existing system and then integrate MicroG, but it needs certain technical knowhow, like hacking around with adb, rooting, signature spoofing, ...

In other words. To setup MicroG "manually" is not necessary an easy task to make it work correctly. But if you want to tinker with it, by all means: go for it! But be prepared to encounter problems.

All technical info can be found on the site I linked you previously under the "installation" section: https://github.com/microg/GmsCore/wiki/Installation

However, a more convenient and much straight forward way to use MicroG would be to install a new Android System (i.e. "ROM") that already has GAPPS replaced with MicroG. Unexposedhazard already pointed out some systems. My recommendation would be "eOS" or "iode OS". Both of them come with a very user friendly configuration out of the box, so there is no need to tinker with it that much after installation.

Final note: Not all phones can be degoogled or flashed with another ROM. E.g. check the supported devices of the ROMs.

And what ever you do: Make backups of your data before fiddeling around with your ROM or any GAPPS. Things can break very fast. 😉

Have fun!
