I don’t have time today

Sometimes yes in my experience, but mostly it works fine. I suspect it’s a game of whack-a-mole with VPN companies constantly rotating IPs.

When will F-Droid stop working on stock android?

How are you liking Kagi? Is it worth it?

It says “for the purposes of cleaning image search engines” but also I’m sure the venn diagram of sites with AI images and slop sites with AI text are nearly a circle.

I would prefer one that removed AI slop sites from search but I suppose if a site has AI images then it’s for all intents and purposes slop anyway.

Thanks, I’m still learning but so far there hasn’t been any application I need that there isn’t some equivalent of.

I just last month tried out Bazzite for fun and haven’t switched back. I feel like an idiot for sticking with Windows as long as I did. I was the metaphorical frog in the pot of water not realizing how shitty it had become. I guess I should be grateful there isn’t any program I need that’s Windows only because Bazzite is better than Windows in every way I can think of.

Uh, he confirmed in a reply that he had no evidence and was deciding based on faith alone.

I can’t believe I need to explain to someone that claiming you don’t need evidence to declare something to be true is faith based on vibes. Tiktok has truly broken the younger generations brains.

This is depressing. Trial by vibes. I’m going to live in the woods.

Something can’t be both “100%” and vibes based lol

Unless you mean “I am 100% basing the following opinion on vibes”.

You need evidence. Please don’t respond with more vibes.

my question is, does it really matter doing all of that before deleting when it comes to privacy?

It doesn’t hurt to be thorough but FWIW they say it will be deleted:

What happens if I permanently delete my Facebook account?

Your profile, photos, posts, videos, and everything else you’ve added will be permanently deleted. You won’t be able to retrieve anything you’ve added.

If you’re only watching subscriptions and not scrolling the generated feeds, you could presumably run tubearchivist through a VPN and then watch via Jellyfin or Plex (there are plugins).

It will not only be private but it has sponsorblock.

That’s what OnePlus, Nothing, and FairPhone are supposed to be about.

It seems that you’re implying they’re not? Could you expand?

You asked how can you live peacefully knowing that your words might be used against you. I don’t believe you can, and I also don’t believe you ever truly could. But I also don’t believe that is a reason to self-censor.

how can i live peacfully knowing that i can be suspected of anything just because i made a joke here or said something there?

You’ve never been able to say things publicly (or, since the internet, publish something that the entire world can read) and expect to be shielded from the consequences. There is always a risk that comes with speaking freely, especially if powerful people perceive your words as a challenge to their power.

The erosion of privacy protections is a reason to despair, but it is also a reason to speak more.

I think the concern is the tracking of offline social networks

Is this thing as sketchy as it seems?

Sam Altman and Andreessen Horowitz involvement should be all you need to know. But the reality is probably less dystopian than some people make it out to be. World to me just seems to be Altman trying to sell a solution to the problem that he’s trying to create with OpenAI (chatbots that are indistinguishable from humans).

Using a PC is going to be safer actually because it’s easier to block most of the telemetry. Bonus points for Linux.

Is there some feature you need that is sprcific to mobile devices?

Using a camera on public property in the EU is broadly very legal.

Not sure if you are looking for blogs but I this guy is a good writer: https://rys.io/en/index.html

Any inconveniences you’ve noticed with Graphene? For example I’ve heard tap to pay functionality doesn’t work.

Well said, I was thinking maybe the entire reason OPs charisma is -1 is because they’re out there trying to convince people to do something instead of just doing their own thing.

• The Android widget (not app just the widget) does not have a monthly view.
• There is no office suite (I don’t know why this surprised me but it did).

Generally it’s been an overall positive experience.
