If you want privacy you either do graphene on a pixel (cake and eat it too), or linux phone (huge downgrade in usability and reliability)
Stock Android is not acceptable, it's even worse than Apple.
We made a diff acc for each device and then added them all to groups
Works for us ymmv
That sounds pretty based
We've been on simplex for a few months, I like it quite a bit. We made diff accounts for each device and added them all to a group.
Notifications arrive reliably on graphene (no google services), and KDE connect.
I don't love the desktop client and wish I could change text size and scaling. I was able to message the dev about it in simplex and got replies which was cool
I have a w11 KVM + nvidia card, even bypassed EAC when it detected the VM and refused to start
I use my iGPU in the Linux host and it's fine. I only game in the VM for lots of reasons. You can swap them but I don't have experience with that
The mic if you add it in VM hardware as passthrough USB will work on your host until the guest boots then it only works on guest.
For multi monitor just try and ask if you have specific problems
One tip is setup sunshine on your VM so you can quickly jump in from any moonlight device. Looking glass Is better but only works from the host pc
Lmk if you have other questions
