The latest pixel devices (since 6 I think?) already provide accees to a /dev/kvm device, so maybe you could even run a normal Ubuntu server VM on your phone for hosting these services.

I guess he means that raspberry pi doesn’t run a mainline kernel

I think the admin of c/selfhosted is the admin of Lemmy.world

I think those kind of vulnerabilities are pretty rare, though.

Not really… If you go read the security bulletin from google, you will see every month that there are a couple of issues fixed on closed source components https://source.android.com/docs/security/bulletin/2023-07-01

Also vulnerabilities related to kernel code, I highly doubt most ROM “developers” are actually backporting security fixes for that specific device’s kernel branch/source.

You can update your phone with custom ROMs, but it won’t update the closed source components of it(device drivers, bootloader, etc…). If a vulnerability is found in one of those components, it’s unlikely that it will get parched

If you use over@lemmy.dbzer0.com to link a user, lemmy will instead create a link for the instance you are currently using.

GrapheneOS uses exec spawning by default, but it’s pretty trivial to disable and it does speed things up (at a slight cost to security).

Even with that option disabled the slow down was significant enough. Maybe the mid-range chip used in the Pixel 5 wasn’t helping, but still… Overall the phone felt significantly quicker when switching back to stock.

I think using AOT rather than JIT compiling might be the cause of the slow installs, but I’m not sure (and I’ve not really noticed a problem myself).

That’s it, I remember reading in their forums one of the mods(or devs?) mentioning this.

In Europe I would say debit cards are way more common than credit cards. It’s very rare to see someone paying with a credit card.

I ran GrapheneOS on a pixel 5 but ultimately went back to stock.

GrapheneOS was considerably slower on my phone. Apps took a bit longer to loader, but the worst was installing APKs, it takes so much longer compared to stock. Some apps (e.g. revolut) took more than 5 minutes to install, it was crazy.
