It is always a tradeoff. It could be cool to see some analytics of visits, but I'm not ready to go self hosted for that. My blog is just a hobby, not a work, no monetization, etc.

Automatic AI-powered screen lock for when your phone is snatched. Theft Detection Lock is a powerful new feature that uses Google AI to sense if someone snatches your phone from your hand and tries to run, bike or drive away.
Does it mean, that "Google AI" will running 24/7 in background, measuring how I use my phone, with an access to accelerometers data and location data?
That is absolutely crazy. I wish the strength to go through that for Alexey Pertsev!
Interesting, thanks! I didn't think about it. But for a personal blog (without any kind of monetization) it is not an option, unfortunately, due to hosting/infra prices 😞
Also, is there any plan to provide binaries and builds? Especially for Android, for example, via F-Droid?
But is there any plans to support GNU Linux distros, like Debian or Nix? From the first look the browser is only for Serenity.
Maybe my opinion is biased. But in Russia where I was living until the beginning of 2022, only in Telegram you was able to find channels on independent media and bots, like "smart vote" (the project of russian opposition about coordinate voting against ruling party). And I understand that if opposition leader can easily create bot that would be very hard to block, then anyone, including spammer, can easily create such a bot that would be very hard to block. That is the reason why I still like Tg and thier approach to the business, when they allow almost everything to almost everyone on their platform.
Imo, it is a kind of trade-off between speech of freedom and easy automation/integration and all this spam. I'm ok with it, just a couple of marks in settings (like only my contacts can send me messages). If one wants to have a spam-free space, they can go to Facebook Messages or something like this. I can not imagine how Telegram can fight all this spam without hiring a lot of moderators like Facebook. Even to hire moderators, Telegram needs to change the business model and start selling user data for advertising.
As open source replacement of google drive I would prefer to use Nextcloud
The problem is that personalization of search results tends to information bubbles. That is the reason why I prefer DDG over Google.
