#Webauthn and to some extend also #TOTP are really easy and quick to use with the #Nitrokey on my PC. It's amazing how smoothly this works.

Then regarding #Android, this thing is still a brick. They simply do not work together AT ALL. Real bummer and not at all as advertised. So I still need a #2FA app on my phone and have to enable two #MFA authorization schemes for every account. This is really not what I had in mind, when I bought this.

So either I completely misunderstood how the #Nitrokey 3 NFC chip should have worked with #Android (at least supports fido2 and apparently PGP), or the #Fairphone 4 does not play nicey with this... Real bummer, because this is basically a brick for me 50% of the time now

Anyone else with this ridiculous issue on the #FairPhone 4 #FP4? Struggling with this for MONTHS now. Relatively low usage today (ca. 1h screen time). Cellular data is pushing through my battery life like nothing else. I barely get a day out of it, even on idle. #Android

#K9 on #Android/#FDroid is broken since yesterday (12.0). Simply crashes when trying to launch it. Downgrade does not seem possible either. So here's waiting for a quick fix 🙃

My #Fairphone 4 is draining battery like crazy over the past few months. Surely, I should buy a new battery for it soon (software says, a full charge is around 3350 mAh instead of 3900 mAh it had back in 2021 when I bought it), but this cannot be the only issue here...

Not using it at all drains around 2-3%/h and simply web browsing or a short YouTube video sometimes drains 30%/h (extrapolating). Sometimes, the device is warm even when I haven't used it for hours. The Energy-consumption settings page lists cellular connection as the top consumer next to display (when using the phone). That is, even when the device sits motionless at a spot with perfect 4G or 5G connectivity. It is only bearable in energy-saving mode (1%/h).

I've been researching online, and it looks like a bunch of people have that issue. People are speculating it is a non-functional deep-sleep in some circumstances. I wonder if a factory reset (or switch to #LineageOS?) could help.

Did anyone have similar experience with #FP4 or even other #Android devices?

The last update to #VLC for #Android improved the app substantially. A lot quicker and without that awkward buffering when starting song from the local music library. Very pleasant! #FOSS #Fdroid

Habe kürzlich bei #nd von dem "Linken Newsaggregator #Alerta" gelesen: https://www.nd-aktuell.de/artikel/1189724.linke-medien-app-linke-vielfalt-auf-dem-handy.html

Die Idee zur APP ist grundsätzlich cool, insbesondere da es linke, unabhängige Medien eine Plattform gibt. Das ganze scheint mehr oder minder auf #RSS Feeds zu basieren, also offene Schnittstellen nutzt und nicht Algorithmus getrieben ist. Die Auswahl linker Medien ist dabei ebenfalls recht umfassend! Ich habe sogar einige neue Blogs & Organisationen entdeckt.

Schade hingegen: die App ist voll von Tracking (u.a. Meta/Facebook & Google: https://reports.exodus-privacy.eu.org/de/reports/de.alerta_app.alerta/latest/

Eine IMO bessere Variante der App: ein handelsüblicher RSS Reader (für #Android z.B. Feeder), der dann selbst mit linken Medien gefüllt wird. Man kann sich hier durchaus von der Alerta-Liste inspirieren lassen, denn die Auswahl ist echt gut. Aber darüber hinaus kann man dann auch beliebig andere (auch englischsprachige News, die in Alberta fehlen) hinzufügen. Und das absolut Tracking- und Werbefrei.

Because I am making some use of #S3 #ObjectStorage for both file storage and smaller backups, I am looking for #FOSS #Android Apps that can not only sync/put files to S3, but also gather data from there.

Is there anything like that out there? On #FDroid I only found two apps that can put data on S3 in a backup-style fashion. But I have not found an application that can download from there.

#Fennec #FDroid has not been updated in months and apparently has known vulnerabilities. So which webbrowser are #privacy contious #Android users using these days? There is always #Mull & #Mulch from #DivestOS, I suppose. #Firefox

For some reason, upon reboot, #Android reset all apps' permissions. I am not getting any notifications, unless i grant permissions again, apps cannot access storagespace anymore, etc. Did this hapoen to anyone ever before? #Fairphone
