On PC: Linux, LibreOffice, LibreWolf, BetterBird, Lemmy, Invidious, Le Chat + Ollama (w/ Open WebUI), Proton stack, moved to Helix for development rather than VS Code.

On phone: EMUI (yes, I'm changing my phone soon ๐Ÿ˜‚), F-Droid + Aurora, IronFox, SimpleX + Signal, Loops, Pixelix, Organic Maps and HERE WeGo (for local transport), pipepipe, DeepL.

Planning on getting the upcoming Fairphone 6, if the rumours are right, and it comes out in the summer. I'm also considering the Shiftphone 8.1, but I haven't heard much about it before this year. I previously wanted to get a Pixel and put GrapheneOS on it, but I'd rather not have my money go to Google. Although, I currently rely on Google Wallet to pay without a card, but I might just go back to carrying my wallet with me rather than send more data to Google about my purchases.

You can buy an used one instead so that someone else gets the money.
