Spacebar looks great, and is exactly what I want, but it doesn't look close to production ready yet

Yo dawg, I heard you like Windows, so we put Windows in your Windows so you can use Windows while you use Windows
Syncthing; it's a modern miracle
I'm new to Linux; what's with the ThinkPad hype?
I'll second Firefox as I quite like the web app version of Lemmy. You can even add it to your home screen as a PWA which will remove the address bar and any sign that you're just in a web browser
That said, I'm using the Sync app cause after updating my phone (I'm using Graphene), the PWA wouldn't keep me signed in for some reason. It's perfectly usable without a subscription; every few posts there's an ad, but they aren't super annoying and they all look like adds and not normal posts which goes a long way. You can make a one-time purchase to remove ads instead of a monthly subscription which is also nice.
Good! Its not like they do anything but spout corporate jargon word salad and pick which 20% of the company to lay off based on extremely rudimentary data
After 10 years of iOS, I made the switch to Graphene last month, and I'm loving it. Android Auto was functional for me, but none of the music apps were nice to use, so I've left my old iPhone in airplane mode in the car to keep playing my downloaded music.
I've not tried any other options since GrapheneOS is the only degoogled option I'm comfortable with
If you're okay with earbuds, Pine64's PineBuds purportedly have ANC
GrapheneOS is the only reason I'm willing to come within 30 miles of using Android

Not even a new thing; I have no idea what the plot for Mission Impossible 1 was

self-hosting matrix is possible, and after I got it set up, it works fine. That said, push notifications were acting up a lot at first (might have been fixed by an update since that hasn't been an issue in a while), and it is rather annoying to get your desktop and mobile clients set up to not be annoying about not being verified (iOS apps seem more fiddly with verifying than Android apps in my experience)
Despite my annoyances at first, the Element client really is the best and most mature one out there, and I do recommend it. Don't bother with any of the other ones; despite what the fluffychat settings want you to think, Element is the only client that can do any kind of audio/video calling, and most of the other clients only have web apps, so there's no hope for getting push notifications on mobile.
Ultimately it has worked for me, but my demands are three humans in a voice call once a week, no screenshare (use Parsec for that), and occasional text messages.
