Grayjay had a number of issues recently too. Guessing some changes on YouTube's side. Recent updates have fixed things.

Thank god. I've been regularly checking the Github page waiting for it to finally land in browsers. Can hopefully start using the pollyfill for it soon.

I'm using the Google Pixel Camera on Graphene OS and don't believe there's any difference in quality. It doesn't require Google Play Services to be installed and you can deny it network access to cut it off completely.

Yes, they don't work without Google Play Services. Google didn't implement passkeys in Android, only their own services.

They are vegan here in Australia and a few other countries I think. I have been bitten by that when traveling overseas and not realised they weren't.

I've been using it for several months mostly due to it's UnifiedPush notifications support and been really happy with it.

I used to live opposite the one in Reservoir and it got me through lockdown. They're opening a new location opposite Melbourne Central soon. Can't wait to be able to grab it for lunch regularly again.

The reason that Google got ruled against originally was that they were paying and offering incentives to developers to keep them from releasing their apps on other app stores.

Google also doesn't support a user installing the Play Store themselves (and the required Google Play Services dependency). So phone manufactures have to choose to include it on everybody's phone from the get go, or their users won't be able to use it at all.

I was just able to donate. Maybe give it another go now?

I they're going to need Mr. Squiggle to make those lines look like something coherent.

They do have e2e for emails. Any emails between Proton Mail users are always e2e encrypted, as are any emails others send you which they've encrypted with their own maio client. If someone sends you an email unecrypted (most email is), then Proton will encrypt it for you and put it in your inbox. They can't read it after that, but there is some trust required that they don't store/look at the unecrypted email before then.

I did pick the DBrand Kill Switch case (including. skin and screen protector) for both me and my partner. It was on the pricer side, but I'm pretty happy with it. Feels quite good to hold and certainly rugged enough to protect it. The skins also stop us from getting each others decks mixed up.

As for a dock, I picked up the Anker one and it's alright. Would have preferred the official one, but everywhere was charging a hefty price for importing it.

I already had a hefty battery pack for travelling. Haven't needed it much myself, but my partner recently made good use of it for an international flight.
