A browser addon that utterly floods advertisers and trackers with dummy data. A single person using it is easy to single out. A thousand start to eat into the profits. 100k should make them go offline (DDoS’ed) with an interesting frequency.
There is one that clicks every ad it sees. Adnauseam.
NFC payments app.
Same. It sucks that most banks wouldn’t jump on this train :(
Software that burns down the server of any website that asks for data they don’t actually need.
I know it’s an unobtainable dream, but a banking app for every bank on any platform.
Banks could simply come together and develop an open banking standard for customers. Would probably save them a lot of money too, since the development of their stupid apps presumably costs them a lot.
Me getting ideas from this thread
please take them :)
I just want GoG but for movies
There are some apps on fdroid that aggregate shows and movies from several websites
Sorry I should have clarified.
I want to legally buy my movie paying it to the creators, and be able do do whatever I want with my copy with me knowing I bought it just for buying it and being allowed to Own it without it being a DVD, because I don’t want DVDs, because I live in 16m² and I move way to often, while keeping the concept of buying it
health smartwatch app, with sleep n all features in some opensource format that could use any other app data… utopia, i know
GadgetBridge (Android). You need one of the (many) supported smartwatches. Data is easily exported and processable with, eg, R.
Android auto
There are some projects that already do this
Do services count? Because in that case, ride-hailing. A replacement for services like Uber and Lyft.
Not sure if this already exists in some form, but I want something that always records where I’ve been. I am a very forgetful person and the Google maps timeline feature has been very helpful more than a handful of times. Unfortunately, it means that Google knows exactly where I’ve been also…
I just want to be able to check where I was the afternoon of a random Tuesday three years ago!
Wallet app that I can tap using NFC so I don’t have to carry my wallet around and lose it again. I really miss Google Pay after switching to GrapheneOS
Open source cars…
Signal to work for SMS again 🙄🙄🙄
A local personal assistant that isn’t just focused on media consumption or purchasing. I want to ask about my most efficient route or ideal presents for my partner or a medical condition without it being data mined.
I’d love a self-hostable tool like trakt or simkl, to track my media consumption, as well as release dates.
