Now they just banned them and cleaned up the chat. Now the part of where you got banned is gone.

No, I think they might’ve deleted other comments, too. There is a guy trying to get banned it seems by throwing around antisemitic speech. It’s just chaos.

I went and snoopped to see what happened. Doogie (M.D.) seems to be the one who did it. They deleted everything you posted and talked about it for a bit. There are a couple of boot lickers who praised them. Some others have come in to pick a fight with them.

I’m sorry you had that experience. Discord moderating is all over the place in most Discords, it can be hard to find a decent one. I received a warning recently for sharing a link that had a curse word in the URL with a very popular Linux Discord where I see double standards as well. I joined the Lutris Discord server awhile back but never found good conversation so I just ignore it at this point. Their logo is ironic considering your experience.

BTW, you are not a nutcase and do not deserve to be banned for calling them out.

Nothing OS is a custom OS by Nothing Technology Limited built on Android. It is not privacy focused like you would get with GrapheneOS but has very little bloat. It is proprietary to Nothing phones. There are unofficial versions of /e/OS available on on XDA for the CMF Phone 1. The Fairphone 4 also has the ability to run custom ROMS like /e/OS and LineageOS.

Here is a video talking about putting /e/OS on the CMF Phone 1: https://youtu.be/TkTzmM9izCo

While, I’m not sure if you’re in the US or elsewhere, here is my response from a US perspective. Another consideration is what carrier do you use, especially if you’re in the US. A phone with a user-replaceable battery that is under $300 is going to be hard to find, at least new.

My recommendation for a new phone would be the CMF Phone 1. While the battery isn’t user-replaceable in the “pop out” sense, it is designed with a more accessible battery for easier replacement than most modern smartphones. https://us.nothing.tech/products/cmf-phone-1

For used, this is also challenging. If you can find a Fairphone 3 or 4 in the US that works with your carrier, that would be perfect. The Fairphones have batteries that are removable by popping off the back cover. They are typically around $300 I think.

Congratulations! That must have been quite the journey. I am getting close, but I still need to figure out a calendar service that I am happy with that works with my family and it will be hard curb my YouTube addiction.
