Where would Free BSD live?

And can Thx be some sort of sea monster/leviathan.

Awsome work.

I dont think this is mentioned enough. These days it seems a given that you’ll install XYZ app on your personal phone, or use your personal PC for something.

No. If you require me to install something then I require a device to install it on.

I also think people dont realise that often throguh active exchange IT can fully wipe your device. And Ive seen too many shitty IT operators who would accidentally do this.

I don’t dully understand the post. But for your bank blocking the app, why not just use the bank website?

What the three groupings on the right hand side for?

I guess the top one is free and the bottom offers an eco system, but thst about the middle group?

Speaking of wage theft. Who’s the artist? Where can I support them?

My bet is it means “not installed by default”.

Communicator doesn’t provide access to addictive social media apps or games. Instead, the company partnered with the maker of an Android launcher, Niagara Launcher, to provide access to messaging apps and productivity tools like Gmail, Telegram, WhatsApp, and Slack.

Hopefully it can have the boot loader unlocked and a no google OS installed. Maybe.

Tracker control does similar per app. And you can allow certain categories or domains through to the the minimal needed for the app to function.

Better yet. https://github.com/MarsHeer/offtiktok

I think it only works for following specific people though. Maybe need to self host for the whole thing it to work.

Valid.

The issue is downloading it with YT constantly making it harder to do, and pretty much against ToS.

I thing you could turn off certain notifications from the PC side.

I moved to Droidify, a fdroid client. Its got extra repos built in and feels more polished IMO.

You can also look into Obtanium to install APKs direct from GItHub. This generally means you get updates faster than fdroid, and are 100% sure no code had changed (fdroid rebuilds packahes and resigns them).

I thibk Flirc. Its been a long time since ive used it though and Linux support was trash.

Personally, IronFox on phones and LibreWolf on desktops.

In believe both are more hardened FF forks.

Interesting that sharkpedo (how I thought it was spelt) works in DDG (as other users say DDG is bing).

I think the same as others. Just a shitty word filter in bing - word filtetes never work consistantly.

Knownword-pedo works (mostly) but not always. Treepedo works. Catpedo dosnt.

Laziness dosnt exist, its just how we shame people into doing what we want and everyone is doing there best.

The first part is a new concept to me. Theres a book on it and the concept is pretty interesting. The latter too but I still get hung up on that one.

Both have helped me to understand I have my limits and that’s ok.

But yeah. What is lazy. I mean most people don’t want to live in <insert whatever ia being called lazy> situation. They literally can’t get out of the rut for otjer reasons, just “wanting to” or “being productive” dosnt fix the underlying cause.

The same reason Newpipe can keep your YouTube watch history locally but for goggle to do it they NEED you to login.
