This sounds legit to me and I’m an expert, because I too have a grandmother

I think this is the winner. Pretty much exactly what I wanted. Thank you so much!

Oh awesome. I’ve never heard of it, I’ll have to check it out

A brain/computer interface. But like you say, depending on the state of tech companies maybe only as an input (I can manipulate computers without allowing them to send a signal of any kind to me).

It’d just be for stuff like mentally dictating note taking, being able to “Google” my thoughts (probably best to send the output to my phone rather than directly into my brain)

That’s a great list, thank you for taking the time. I’ll look into them all

Another great idea, thank you. I’d never heard of F-Droid either

Oh wow, thank you so much. This sounds perfect, almost exactly what I was imagining
