A lightweight news hub to help decentralize the fediverse load: mirror and discuss headlines here so the giant instance communities aren’t a single choke-point.

Rules:

  1. Recent news articles only (past 30 days)
  2. Title must match the headline or neutrally describe the content
  3. Avoid duplicates & spam (search before posting; batch minor updates).
  4. Be civil; no hate or personal attacks.
  5. No link shorteners
  6. No entire article in the post body

How do we not get caught up in this shit, fam? Pixel with Graphene*?

[–] Truscape@lemmy.blahaj.zone 7 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

Pixel 9 or earlier with GrapheneOS (ideally purchased unlocked without a carrier contract, so in-store or on ebay), sandboxed google play services, and ideally using FOSS apps as much as possible.
