I don't understand why the control panel UI wasn't modernized instead? Would that really be unfeasible? I think it still might have been less work than to maintain 2 coexistent "settings/control panel" apps and migrate from one to another. Sometimes you have to throw out the old code base and start from scratch. But if you do so shouldn't you rather distrubute the result when your finished and not in a half-baked compromise-like state?

Did you flash a custom ROM? Maybe it will work with a custom ROM.

EDIT: Your phone uses Mediatek processor, so it's not going to be well supported. I recommend you to stick to locked bootloader and just live with the phone as it is.

Isn't this a problem with every package/library system? Is there really a solution to this that doesn't limit packages with how they handle their dependencies?

This may also be about trust. npm probably could limit a number of dependencies that a single package can have with an arbitrary limit, but they don't do that, because they trust the developers they won't misuse their options. Well...

Node packaging is fucked. Node packaging remains fucked.

I am sorry, but as a noobie user of npm I don't understand. It works pretty well for me if you use it normally for what it is supposed for.

I don't understand. So if I only lock my phone (turn the screen off) without rebooting it, it is not fully encrypted (considering that the device storage encryption is enabled)?

And also FOSS is just cool. That's a cherry on top.

Regarding privacy on iOS, I recommend watching [this video] (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JHnBOUNxHsw). You can get more privacy on Android with some tweaking (custom ROMs, AdAway, uninstalling pre-installed bloatware, etc...). There are several ways to get more privacy, some easier than others. I know most people won't even try. On the other hand, with iOS, you're handing your privacy over to Apple in good faith, but you have far fewer options to take things into your own hands. People want privacy out of the box, but that often clashes with companies' interest in making as much money as possible (simply put). Some companies use privacy as a selling point in their marketing campaign, but often it is just false advertising.

Meta services is not a part of any package, but it's an independent package com.facebook.services that a lot of manufacturers preinstall as a system app, because they get paid for that by meta. The package runs in the background and most meta apps communicate with it, use it for push notifications etc... You can uninstall the app with ADB command adb shell pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.facebook.services.

If you have com.facebook.services you may also other meta system packages com.facebook.system and com.facebook.appmanager preinstalled on your phone.
