    I use GrapheneOS and NextDNS. And NoScript. There’s some overkill there but I figure why not.

    To your question, GrapheneOS has put a lot of thought into features like sandboxing Google Play services so you can choose to use none/some/all depending on your preference. I would think that’s probably a smoother experience than trying to block google services selectively via NextDNS. GrapeheneOS also makes it easier to manage per-app permissions and security features.

    There were 103 murders in Greater London last year, which also has a population of just under 10 million and of course is a dense urban environment with a lot of inequality. Of those, 67 were stabbed and only 8 were shot.

    Bomb/grenade attacks are almost unheard of in the UK, outside of terrorist incidents.

    I don’t mean to attack Sweden which is an admirable country in many ways, and I wish the UK would adopt many of its policies. It’s precisely because it’s such a well run country that the increase in violent crime is so shocking

    Yeah idk, I have family in Helsinborg. A car bomb outside elderly relatives flat - in a nice part of a nice town - someone shot dead in another relative’s street, the police station was attacked with a hand grenade… Last year when we arrived to visit a main shopping street was blocked off after a bombing in a flat. Yeah it’s still a nice country and I haven’t literally witnessed any of these incidents, but criminal violence honestly feels closer there than at home in London

    I made a track for my game, yeah, but using UGEtracker which is built into GB Studio. It’s not the easiest to use tbh so it wasn’t that fun.

    LSDJ sounds very cool, have you checked out the DirtyWave M8? I ran the cheap version (Anbernic console with a dongle) but I couldn’t get over the learning curve. Now I have a Polyend Tracker Mini which I really like

    BTW I’m not really a programmer either, GB Studio simplifies things a lot and it’s free if you want to check it out
