True. However there are certain advantages

• WhatsApp gets only a part of your data (coz many people might be on different apps)
• You don't have to run WhatsApp on your device so they can't collect that data either

I know it's not perfect but better than the current scenario and a step in the right direction

Oh wow. TIL! Any recommendws sources? I want to read the full coverage

I only heard of it because I follow Matrix blog.

I saw the technical discussions (if you are a tech person I would recommend watching those on YT) and it seems that EU is trying to find some middle ground where companies won't have to incur a lot of losses but still be open and create a fair environment for newcomers.

I hope that the DMA gets passed in the EU. It'll (hopefully) break the monopoly worldwide

Why was it allowed in the first place? Generally I'm pro freedom but in this case the phones should be locked down and there should be a whitelist of apps they can install. It's not a personal phone.

Oh nice. If you want I can tell you where to find a OP melee weapon. Its pretty good and I'm using it even now

hard time following npc quests

Lol I just used Fextralife to keep a track of those. Too much of a hassle otherwise.

str build

Lol. Which weapon are you using currently?

Oh nice. Which all NPC quests did you start?

I always go for STR build

Oh? Any reason?

I'm a noob. I can't audit it lol :p

Is the source code available? I would like to see how auditors rate it's security. Even if it's not as good I would say it's a step in the right direction.

Oh hey I'm currently playing Elden Ring as well. I'm a bit ahead of you (~90hrs in the game). I guess I'm somewhere in between mid game and late game.

What's your build? And did you progress in the last few days?

Edit: Deleted spoiler stuff. I guess spoiler tags aren't working?

I think a large part of why Framework laptops worked and no mobile equivalent has come up is because most of phone ecosystem is not free. When I install Lineage OS on my phone I always expect a decrease in the quality of photos because lot of the camera stuff is proprietary and baked into the OEM ROM.

I get that the Framework equivalent of phones can manufacture their own devices and write FOSS firmware for it but it's a big hurdle which not many can afford.

On the contrary in laptops/PCs you can install Linux and expect most of the hardware to work out of the box. So until phone ecosystem gets as free as PC ecosystem (I doubt it will considering how the corporations work) I doubt a Framework equivalent will be available for phones.
