It’s on Codeberg, here’s the link: https://codeberg.org/Bazsalanszky/Infinity-For-Lemmy/releases

It’s specifically on the IzzyOnDroid repo, instructions here:

I tried Sync for a little bit, but I didn’t really vibe with it to be honest, Infinity is still by far my favourite phone client.

Really, you should just download it anyway and try it, you’ll find out quickly if it’s for you or not.

Technically the idea is that if Chrome has barely any market share (will never happen, but let’s pretend), they cannot implement this as it will anger and lock too many users out of day to day life.

However…

With Google Search and YouTube being by far the most 2 popular websites in the world, I think they still could. The vast majority of people would never give those up and if they’re told to use another program to access them, they absolutely will, meaning in an ideal world with a browser competition, they can easily destroy it immediately.

I only self-host a MediaWiki website at the moment, along with a PPSSPP adhoc server for said game that the wiki is related to. I want to self-host a lot more stuff, but storage space is expensive, and I don’t really want to leave things running at home all the time either as it will eat into my electricity bill.

Nextcloud and OnlyOffice are what I’m interested in next, and perhaps a Fediverse platform.

I’m also a big fan of GrapheneOS which I’ve been using for over a year with not many issues. It feels nice to have a system with no bloat and decoupled from Google. Between F-Droid and the Aurora Store, I still haven’t installed Google Play Services or any other dependencies as I’ve never needed them.

There’s a couple of issues, but in the end they didn’t affect me too much:

• Many push notifications simply will not work as they rely on Google services, such as Discord. “Better” programs such as K-9 Mail and Element will work fine, however.
• If a program requires Google Play Services, such as the idle RPG “Melvor Idle”, it will simply not work. There aren’t that many of these though, so it’s not really something to worry about.

You can install Google Play Services however and have them sandboxed to work with specific applications, but I decided to just not bother.

If you’re curious, banking applications work fine on GrapheneOS, although perhaps it doesn’t work for all of them, but I have had no issues.
