Y’all must not be from the US, or must have really good ad blockers.

[–] AnUnusualRelic@lemmy.world 28 points 3 months ago (1 children)

The number of people not from the US is actually surprisingly large.

I'm not from the US, correct, and am very happy with my ad blockers, correct. I'm still hoping I can make sense of this post eventually

Kia pushes a huge ad campaign every summer

US here, but yes really good ad blockers. Degoogled phone, ublock, ...

Degoogled phone

is it a pixel? or is this also somehow possible with other phones?

[–] Marduk73@sh.itjust.works 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Ironically, Google Pixels are great for degoogling. Yeah this is a Pixel 7. Also did this to a Pixel 4A5G.

Mine has CalyxOS installed, but you can also try Graphene or Lineage. Each choice will let you know the supported phones on their site.

yeah so I'm going to need a new phone in the near future and was considering a degooglable one but it feels conflicting to buy one from google

[–] Marduk73@sh.itjust.works 2 points 3 months ago

Calyxos supports fairphone and some others. Dunno about the other os'

[–] Marduk73@sh.itjust.works 2 points 3 months ago

I hear that. Felt the same.

I think it’s somebody trying to be passive, aggressive, but the fact that I have to say, I think proves the level of thought that went into it.
