#Movuan #PINE64
The Movuan project was started by community member lxb and announced in a forum post as an alternative to mobile distributions using the #systemd init system. Thanks to being forked from Mobian, the project makes use of modified Mobian debos to build it’s images.
One of the modifications that lxb makes is an optional script which can customize a Movuan image to install extra software like AndroidImpEx for importing contacts and sms messages from an Android phone, Ungoogled Chromium, local caching DNS (bind) tunnelled through TLS (stubby) to privacy minded servers and an inbuilt adblocker through a caching proxy (squid). These modifications are a personal preference of lxb’s but anyone is free to use them to help improve their privacy.
