I have been running lineageOS on my OnePlus 2. I liked it, but Lineage has stopped supporting my phone. There are two options that I have been able to find as replacements - postmarketOS and /e/OS. Any thoughts on those or other recommendation? Anything that gets security updates, is open source, and is functional meets my needs.

    Sorry I didnt notice before that he edited the comment, and unfortunately we dont have any edit history stored in Lemmy. Anyway, when you see a rule violation (eg racism), then you should report it to the admins/mods and have them take care of it. Attacking another user is also a rule violation (rule 2), and is just gonna lead to more trouble.

    Edit: also I suggest that both of you stop arguing, because it is not going anywhere. Just accept that you disagree, and ignore each other. @Helix@feddit.de @TheAnonymouseJoker@lemmy.ml

      Good idea, sorry.

        I appreciate that you try to fight against racism and discrimination. That isnt the problem, the problem is how you are doing it. You have to understand, most people in Europe dont hate nonwhite people (except for a small, vocal minority). The racism here is much more subtle than that, and people dont even realize that their beliefs and worldviews are racist. I know because I used to hold such beliefs as well (its almost impossible to avoid because the media really misrepresents things).

        I think the best way to fight against this racism is with education. If people in the west could understand how people in the global south are being exploited and oppressed by imperialism, they would change their beliefs. Another thing is that many people view racism as something like person A saying a bad word to person B, but thats only a minor part of it. I would say the main aspect of racism is the economic relationship between imperialist and neocolonial countries (again, exploitation and imperialism).

          Well said. If anything came from that discussion, it’s that statement right there. I believe the same thing and I sometimes also find out I was being racist because I believed stereotypes or made inappropriate jokes.

            I agree and I appreciate your efforts to stop bigotry in its tracks, but we must always try to be civil when doing so.

            Also @nutomic@lemmy.ml and I would much rather spend time coding, than moderating, so it’d be helpful if yall would either just not engage with each other, ( or block each other as that will be released within 2 weeks ), or ping other moderators if you feel that you can’t resolve conflicts between yourselves.

            I think there is a difference between corporate social media and the fediverse that you should keep in mind here. The former dont care about racism etc because hostility actually generates more “engagement” and advertising money, plus the site owners will never actually see it. But on the fediverse its very different, because instances are run by volunteers in their free time, who want to have a site that they enjoy using. So being civil will go a lot further here (it definitely does on lemmy.ml). For that reason, your warning still stands.
