• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Reddit now blocks signed out VPN connections.⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  old.reddit.com still works (for now…).

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Merge then review⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Don’t hurt their morale!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Which are android spyware browsers ?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Probably any Chromium browser that didn’t degoogle it.

  Even though Firefox is way better, it’s also send user data by default.

  On Firefox you can disable it, and there are a lot of forks that send no data/the minimal user data needed.

  I’d recommend Mull or Fennec, and to stay away from (most of) Chromium broswers and Opera.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Use Invidious/MPV/FreeTube on the computer, and Newpipe on your Android phone.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Google Is Offering Serious Cash to Lure iPhone Users to the Pixel 8⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  That title is *very* misleading.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Leaks confirm low takeup for Windows 11⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  It was internal Microsoft file.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What is the best version of Firefox in android?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  The latest.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I just acquired a new PC⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Download Linux Mint/Fedora ISO.

  Make a bootable flash drive with Rufus for Windows systems, or DD for Unix-like OSs.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Not even the ghost of obsolescence can coerce users onto Windows 11⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Don’t wipe-out everything. Grub Linux Mint/Fedora iso, and install it to be alongside Windows.

  When you have free time, play with it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How often do you hop distros?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  … and all of that was a really long way to say I’m very satisfied with my distro.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How often do you hop distros?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve never really understood distro-hopping. Unless you have a reason to switch, why to do it? Or, why to bother?

  If you want to check it out, read/watch a review, or test it on a virtual machine. You don’t really – IMO – have a reason to have it on bare metal.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨We have successfully completed our migration to RAM-only VPN infrastructure - Mullvad VPN⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  People really abused the option. That’s why we can’t have nice things :/

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨bank app with Graphene OS⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I found bank apps to work well on secondary profile.

  You can do it with Android’s built-in option, or better (IMO), with Shelter.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Judge in US v. Google trial didn’t know if Firefox is a browser or search engine⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Allow to introduce ‘Google’.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Which conditions would make reject or quit your job?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  When feeling unappreciated/disrespected.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Redirect YouTube to piped⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  The problem with all those addons is that you’re limited, you can use only what they already set for you.

  Redirector is more flexible.
