Also as a Mac user who went from Safari, ended up using Orion up til recent Kagi drama, and found LibreWolf. It works well and I’ve found it to have better compatibility versus Orion. I’ve used that with Searxng for more private searches.

People (rightfully) shitting on Elon were forcefully given blue checkmarks and now they can’t hide that mark so that it looks hypocritical.

So I had been using Orion for about a year with good results. It’s modified webkit so it feels like Safari but supports Chrome and Firefox plugins and has anti-fingerprinting/privacy measures.

I switched away after the situation a month or so ago with Kagi (same dev) adding Brave to their search and being a general ass to the people that raised concerns.

Currently I am using Librewolf, a privacy focused fork of Firefox, which has preformed really well. The only real issue I have is not being able to auto-fill sms 2FA codes like Safari.

Looking to use internally, been using DNS challenge. Going to check up on it this morning.

I really don’t see touchscreens on laptops to be something to judge a company’s innovation on. I work in communications and I can really only think of two coworkers that personally own touchscreen laptops.

If anyone is using an apple device, NetNewsWire is open source and is dead simple. No extra features, no premium tier, can sync with iCloud or self hosted servers, and the reader mode can be applied source-wide.

Technically won’t be able to download from the app store but using applications like imazing to download it and as long as you previously owned it, Apple will restore your purchases.

I’ve been using a manga reader that got taken off the store around 2017, still use it and transfer it to each new device (works for both phone and iPad). The ad-free in-app purchase restores just fine too.

It’s from the Touhou game series (shoot em up with anime girls based loosely on folklore). The song was originally level music for Touhou 4 (1998), but got remade in 2006 for an official album.

Touhou fans are pretty die hard and the Bad Apple music video was many fan’s introduction to the franchise. Take that and the relative ease of recreation and it’s becomes a more than decade old meme.

As long as your dust isn’t conductive (such as metal dust from a machining shop) it really isn’t a real concern. Most of the time if dust kills something: its caked on, thermally choking components, and often mixed with something else like tar from cigarettes.

Exposed and on display like this, the owner is probably going to be meticulous about air dusting it often.

If you just want a decent cheap one. I’ve had the linked one for close to 2 years as my daily home then work keyboard wrist rest. I have it paired to a GK64 and its 1:1 in width and looks just as good as when I bought it. There’s good wide rubber feet on it as well.

I’ve gotten chinese clone keycaps from Amazon, they’re fine as long as you get like doubleshot and read reviews.

If you’ve got the money to spare or find a deal (like myself and a friend split a buy 1 get 1 free deal) check out Drop.com. A decent selection of high quality keycaps and imo are such a comfortable profile (MT3) but if you prefer a more conventional cherry profile, they carry those as well.

My daily driver at home has Drop X Noctua MT3 keycaps from drop and my work keyboard currently has some XDA Botanical clones from Amazon. Both are good, the Drop keys are better though.
