mavu comments on For those of you with LineageOS and rely on F-Droid/FOSS apps, how do you make extra money without gig apps like DoorDash?

I would assume that people opposed to google apps and surveillance would also be unlikely to have business with door dash and co.

Yeah, exactly. What do they do to get around this? How do they make extra money without gig apps? How do they find gigs?

I think they mean to say, those people would not do that type of work.

So how do they make extra money in THIS economy without these gig apps? It's not like the job market is good enough to get a second job.

Are you operating under the premise that by default everyone is using the gig economy to make extra money?

You are starting to sound like you’re trolling.

I don’t do gig work. So I suppose I could use one of these phones.

There's ways. It's not like the apps are the only option.

Ways like what? Cuz I've tried looking on Craigslist and I either get scams or I never get responses.
