Youtube search results have been garbage for a while now :(
- tux
Tux is not software, it’s a software mascot :D
Jesse, what the fuck are you talking about
I’ve donated to Signal and the web archive
Love the wallpaper!
For now
The titlebar is excellent, but the icons don’t feel 98
Not an expert, but I assume Bottles would be a good idea. It allows you to create separate wine prefixes for each app so if any app is malicious, it shouldn’t affect any other one.
Is this service paid? If not, how are they making any money? All I can think of is a) selling users data (and lying) b) selling spots in search results, which means they’ll be overrun with malicious links or other useless garbage. I don’t believe they’re just hosting a search engine out of the kindness of their hearts (:
I also recently discovered mpv --no-video [url]
. Useful for when I just want to listen to a podcast or something. Sadly, I can’t get it to work with Spotify
I’m so used to navigating in Eternity at this point that all other apps seem clunky and unintuitive
You could use the uMatrix extension to control not only cookies, but everything else (like scripts, css, images) by subdomain. Inb4 someone says it’s outdated. It works perfectly fine.
I don’t have an answer to your question, but I just wanted to say, I appreciate you still calling them Facebook and not Meta.
But isn’t randomization supposed to give you a different unique fingerprint each time? So yes, you would be unique and easily tracked but only until your fingerprint changes
It doesn’t need to be maintained if it still works on the latest update of the browser. Also, uBlock is not a full replacement, if there will be a full replacement that is maintained, I’ll gladly switch
XMPP sounds like a good idea, however, switching to Signal and convincing the 3 contacts I have there to switch as well wasn’t very easy and I don’t think I could pull it off again in the near future.
I hadn’t thought about the keyboard! I use SwiftKey (which I now realise is a terrible choice) from way back before I started caring about my privacy. Do you have any good recommendations? The main thing I need is the three word suggestions to have dictionaries for multiple languages. I use Firefox on mobile as well, with pretty much the same settings and uBlock. I’m not sure what you mean by having Google Play services enabled, as I did say I use the store. Is there a way to use it and have the services disabled? Won’t that mess with banking apps? Also not sure what you mean by android tracking blocklists, but I think my dns blocks ads and tracking. I also don’t get any ads in system apps like settings for example. Tbh, I am a little afraid of debloating as I tried that ages ago on a Sony M5 and after uninstalling the apps, my phone started running insanely hot and slow. I had to put it right next to the air conditioner to be able to use it, reinstalled all the apps and the problem went away :D
Afaik Google Play store and services are always installed as an admin app. I’m don’t think there is much we can do without custom roms
Yeah, we have this unwritten rule in my friend group to never send links to any videos no matter where they’re from. You download the video and send the file
