  • A few of mine :

    • AndOTP : A good app for OTP that actually let’s you backup your keys and move them easily and securely to a new phone
    • Blokada : A system wide adblocker for Android. 4000000 ads blocked so far on my phone
    • YouTube Vanced: Not really a “hidden” gem but a cool app nonetheless. I wish people knew you could get an ad free YouTube experience on mobile. It also includes sponsor block so you really get straight to content. Also let’s you get a YT popup player and shutdown the screen with the video still playing.
    • F-Droid an Android open source app market. Often includes apps that are not allowed on Google market.

    As far as I know Samsung makes it incredibly difficult to unlock the bootloader of the phone. And I think it’s the only way to do a full backup.

    Most of the options described here in the comments are partial backups.

    When I was doing this I was using Nandroid to get a full backup and restore it later on.

    Android runs on a unix kernel.

    I personally think an open source android rom is a good middle ground between running a full linux OS and google’s Android.

    I don’t know what roms are good right now though.

    I would probably go for a fairphone and install the non google rom:

    https://support.fairphone.com/hc/en-us/articles/9979154556817-Google-free-Android

    Or check if your current phone is supported by any open source Rom.

    In any case you will most likely have a lot less apps since you would have only access to non google play services apps. There is a fairly decent choice of apps on F-Droid but your experience will remain limited.

    C’est la fin de mon ami Sync for Reddit aussi.

    Tout ça a cause de cette petite bite de spez.

    Mais quand même hâte de voir la suite de l’histoire.

    J’espère que l’IPO de Reddit sera bien merdique.

    It happens more since the law changed in 2017.

    Our “Ministre de l’intérieur” said it happens less frequently but it has been fact checked and it’s a lie.

    For context the law changed in 2017 in the midst of the terrorist attacks in France. Unsurprisingly the law passed as a reaction to this is very ambiguous and unclear on when you can use your firearm if someone refuses to stop in a car.
