Been looking at the Fairphone 6 and damn, support until 2033? That’s actually insane.
The whole replaceable parts thing is pretty sick too. Battery goes bad? Just swap it instead of dropping $800 on a new phone or getting the battery replaced for $100
Probably gonna throw /e/OS on it too because why not.
What’s everyone else using? Anyone actually have experience with Fairphone or am I just getting hyped over nothing?
@Dirk What app are you using for ‘app that blocks all data traffic except for the apps I want’?
I’m using NetGuard in whitelist mode: all traffic is blocked, including all traffic from system applications, only apps I allow can access the Internet (I can even control if the apps are allowed to use WiFi only, Mobile only, or both).
NetGuard install itself as VPN to provide the functionality. The VPN is local-only, so apps that want to connect to the Internet, use the VPN, and then NetGuard does it’s actions, and then the regular internet connection is used for outgoing trafic via the local VPN. With this, no root access is needed.
