Signal. Who else is making a post quantum secure e2ee algorithm and making sure the code is open source and not duplicating the keys everywhere? Thank goodness for the kind devs on this project and for other FOSS projects everywhere!
I deleted google and only have game accounts email only from simplelogin aliases. Maybe you’ll eventually realize google is a shit company and leave that environment as well.
Proton unlimited was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. Very nice vpn service that works even on arch Linux on school wifi (making sure to switch to tcp protocol), e2ee mail that I use to send confidential medical records to drs, included simplelogin premium (currently over 400+ aliases), excellent and knowledgeable customer support, and so much more. I just really love this company and their role in the FOSS, privacy, security space.

I keep up to date with a lot of tech stuff through youtube so I genuinely don’t know who can offer a service as big and reliable as google. I’m pretty sure they’re offering at a loss or something right? I’ve tried Peertube and Oddysee but not all creators are on those platforms.

Fuck microshit for their predatory pushing of game pass and not being able to own games. I would never buy an xbox and hope others don’t fall for it as well.
Yeah, I get that gamepass is a good way to play games but the thing is when this is if I really like the game and want to purchase it, I can’t. They won’t ever sell me the game files, they’ll only give me the key to rent it out and can revoke that whenever they want.
As title says. I used Chrome for years, but last year switched to Firefox instead. I still use Google Docs a lot, and while I can Copy & Paste using keyboard shortcuts, I’d like the option to use the mouse as well. But for greedy reasons, Google thinks that’s just too much power for Firefox to have. Does anyone know how to...
The founding of America was a little rough but it’s amazing that they got as progressive as they did. Seeing as republicans nowadays support removing those fundamental rights that some old men laid out hundreds of years ago.
Edit: guys guys calm down. Yes, I know about the slavery stuff. I’m just talking about the amendment, stuff like the first amendment about free speech. States like Florida immediately come to mind because they’re trying to erase and change history.
My pixel 5 is currently running on grapheneOS and will be unsupported soon so I’m looking to switch over to CalyxOS for an extended support. Are there any other deGoogled OS’s you guys recommend?
Understandably so. But I don’t really like the design choices of the newer pixels. I hope there’s a phone in development that still has a fingerprint sensor at least. Audio jack and sd card seems less and less likely.
I was wondering, with all the different Lemmy clients and frontends, what/which out of these do people actually use? To answer this, I made a poll if anyone wants to fill it out, and I tried to put every client I could find.
That article is completely accurate, I see pretty much everybody save their documents on the desktop but if I were to make them find it in the file explorer they wouldn’t have a clue where it is. With macbook users they just use the search feature and probably haven’t seen a directory in all their lives.
The people at my school call all laptops “chromebooks” or “macbooks” and only do their stuff using the Google web apps (docs, sheets, slides, forms, etc). As a degoogled and pretty savvy individual it kind of hurts my soul as I’m over here using stuff like libreoffice on my Linux machine.
My ultimate phone would be a fairphone with audio jack, fingerprint reader, sd slot, and support for custom roms like calyxos. I would buy that in an instant.
I am Ganesh, an Indian atheist and I don’t eat beef. It’s not like that I have a religious reason to do that, but after all those years seeing cows as peaceful animals and playing and growing up with them in a village, I doubt if I ever will be able to eat beef. I wasn’t raised very religious, I didn’t go to temple...

I’m considering buying a new thinkpad and possibly changing the battery out for a price up to 550 dollars, but preferably less.

I’m currently using a T14 but the gen 3 amd version and it’s been going pretty good. I payed $900 or something around there and upgraded my ssd to 2tb. Soldered ram is a bit of a bummer but it is upgradable on the intel version.
