I absolutely love the /idea/ of daylightco (nprofile…ntld), but their use of Googled Android and privacy policy has been a hard no from me right from the start.
For now, I stick to my GrapheneOS phone with night light enabled, a Remarkable tablet for writing, note taking, and e-book reading paired with a Hooga red light reading lamp for the dark.
I'm a firm believer in handwriting notes for learning, memorizing, and committing procceses, principles or ideas or memory. I constantly tell my clients "Write this down. No. Don't type. Get a pen and paper. I'll wait."
The Remarkable was given to me as a gift. Their privacy policy is not perfect either, but to circumvent, I only use it locally and have never connected it to an account or the internet and keep it locked. Its not encrypted, but its a step up from my physical notebooks that are completely exposed if someone gets them. Plus its easier to carry everything with me in a single tablet.
I would love to see a amber and red light tablet that addresses privacy concerns, health and well-being, and a paper like display for writing. One day! 🤞

quoting nevent1q…5723What the fuck daylightco (npub1a00…9q3h) ? Are you out of your minds? If you're going to "collect my reading activity and personal notes", at least end-to-end encrypt them and don't harvest them for targeted advertising.
There is absolutely no way I'll be continuing to use you "Reader" software in this context, and you can be sure that if you release a custom OS that has this level of privacy invasion I will not be using it. If that means I can't use the hardware either, then so be it.
This is coming from someone who said the hardware is completely revolutionary and life-changing.
