You are brave. Good luck lone traveler.

Squircles!?! I'm sold. Downloading now. Thank you for the info.

Looks like the stable channel hasn't received an update in years, and the alpha channel hasn't received an update in over a year. Is this launcher abandoned?

Can it reformat icon shapes?

I liked the small circular QS buttons best from everything they've put out so far. If they brought those back and had an option to remove the button titles, I'd be happy.

I tried Shizuku and was able to get it to work with Better Internet Tiles, which allowed me to split out the Data and WiFi tiles. When I tried Fabricate Overlay, it kept crashing when I went to save the overlay.

How do you edit the config.xml file that you suggested? Does that require root?

How'd you edit the menu? I don't have a option to separate those buttons natively on GrapheneOS/A13.

Sorry, Android 12 added the new Quick Setting tile called "Internet" that combined the Wi-Fi and Mobile Data tiles. Yeah you're right, I had big square QS buttons on my old Galaxy S4 but when I switched to Pixel it had the small circular buttons for a short period.

Are you saying you like the big buttons? Because Android 12 is when they were introduced.

No you don't. You used to, and then the WiFi and Data buttons were both put under an Internet button. It's aweful design. All of it.

Based on these threads from Reddit, the HA community, and github, it looks like it's very hit and miss.

I haven't tried one, but the banglejs looks comparable to the Pine Time.

Nobody is a user name in the Linux environment. The IP for the port forwarding are to the local host. https://www.reddit.com/r/AndroidQuestions/comments/fcg1re/o_found_an_app_called_nobody/

According to Invizible's instructions, you shouldn't have to port forward to an external IP. https://invizible.net/en/invizible-and-netguard-firewall/

Read You is simple, minimalistic, and works well.

If your country gets warrant happy, wouldn't having a VPN in a more privacy friendly or non-five-eyes country be better? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Five_Eyes

What if you used a federated network?

Do you use Cheogram for messaging? What app do you use for VOIP calls?

Twilio is pumped over at Intel Techniques by Michael Bazzell. They charge $1.15 per month per number, which isn't bad considering it's a fairly reputable company. After signing up for a trial number and going through these long instructions, I was able to make an outgoing call. To get MMS going would require a whole other set of steps (that I have yet to find) just to get it setup, and then you have to go through an MMS verification process with Twilio which looks to be geared towards businesses. In fact, Michael also said on episode 277 how Twilio has been less interested in supporting him and his listeners and appears to be more geared towards businesses. So I guess I'll go bark up one of the other two options from my original post unless someone has any good reasons to do otherwise.

I mainly want it for my resume, rewards programs, and when you go out to eat and they ask for a phone number to text you when your table is ready. Hopefully, I don't run into any issues with it being a VOIP number in those circumstances.
