Better Internet Tiles vs Wiki Fronted
Side-by-side comparison of two open source alternatives
Better Internet Tiles
NOTE: This app requires shell access, which can be granted using either Shizuku or root. This application aims to create a unified internet quick-settings tile, which is actually useful (I'm looking at you, Android 12). Next to this, separate Wi-Fi and mobile data tiles are also available if you just want to go back to the behaviour of Android 11 or lower. Tapping the new unified internet tile will simply toggle between Wi-Fi and mobile data, which is exactly what I want it to do most of the time. This reduces the amount of taps needed from 3 (tap tile, disable wifi, enable data) to just 1 quick tap. In situations where you still want more control, long pressing the tile will redirect you to the relevant settings page.
Wiki Fronted
Patched Wikipedia app with: * Built-in DNS over HTTPS on Wikimedia DNS. * Domain fronting: HTTPS Server Name Indication manipulation for bypassing DPI. * The default IP addresses blocked by CNCERT/CC replaced. See https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T327286 for more information. Note that this circumvention does not utilize any cloud provider. Anti-Features from original Wikipedia: * TetheredNet: Depends on wikipedia.org which is free and open source, but is not changeable by a user. * Tracking: Analytics can't be disabled, see https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T356260.
