I suggest trying a virtual machine! Some softwares detect this (and there are ways around that too) but mostly it should be seamless!

for something similar to edge, i’d recommend ungoogled chromium. it strips out all of the google garbage. the setup takes a bit of time to get extensions installed, but it’s smooth sailing after that.

if you’re wanting something new, there are many privacy-oriented forks of firefox that can get the job done. one of the common ones is librewolf, but i honestly just stick to normal firefox with ublock origin, container tabs, and noscript.

edit: if anything i said is wrong, please correct me 🙏

At that point why not just use digital signatures?

I’ve been super busy as of recent, but I’ll try to remember to reply to you if/when I do :)

I don’t think so, but this sounds like a super interesting idea. I might try this later!

i think they’re talking about Matrix, which is completely different.

The other user didn’t answer your question fully, but heuristic algorithms are very good for this purpose! if you’re able to identify some specific things in players behavior that only occur when they are cheating, you can easily create a machine learning system to identify that behavior, incorporating things like batch punishment (such as VAC or Hypixel’s Watchdog) to make it more difficult for cheat devs to identify the reason, or a manually-reviewed appeal process to account for errors in the model.

Is this fixed if using the iOS 17 Beta?

I’ve degoogled my desktop/laptop nearly completely, but are there any risks or downsides to using iOS/Apple’s default apps?

I use Asahi Linux on M2 - Armcord works great for me! Also, I’m pretty sure it’s still fully compatible with amd64/x86_64, for others though you might have to modify source, not sure.

Edit: additionally, I don’t think anyone’s been banned from discord just for using a client, the app uses the discord api under-the-hood anyway, but I think those who make the clients are more at risk if they use them, since they’re more likely to be noticed (repeated testing/debugging and such)
