Interesting word. OED has Conviviality is a noun derived from the adjective convivial, meaning friendly and sociable. It means the quality of being convivial or the state of enjoying each other’s company.

Wikipedia has Conviviality is a term that refers to the ability of individuals to interact creatively and autonomously with others and their environment. It was introduced by Ivan Illich as a contrast to industrial productivity and alienation, and has been used in various contexts and disciplines to explore the politics and culture of living with difference.

andrewism has Conviviality is individual freedom realised in mutual interdependence. Which I find a succinct representation, fascinating how words, and with them thought patterns (or the other way around) evolve, I’ll be adding this to the quiver, thanks.

Fair cop. Keep a weather eye out for better alternatives for the blockers, but as noted the full fat gOS play store and google services are pretty good, and the bootloader gets re-locked, might be worth trying it for a weekend to see how close you get, many people have good experiences, but it’s all down to cases.

It’s a pixel, you’re in c/Privacy for whatever reason, have you considered just putting GrapheneOS on it? All those annoyances go bye bye, you can have a full fat google alternate user and an approximately private main user…

I selfhost it on my laptop, pretty easy, and I always have it just the way I want it. Still pushing shit uphill with the AI crap, but better than any one search engine (it amalgamates many). Relevant to OP I have a large block list enabled, but it’s very much a moving target.
