You had to name it like that, didn’t you?

Services or applications. An instance is just a server.

Bu yeah, there are a lot more than those! See here

Unfortunately you’re right

See, this is what I think people get wrong about ad tech: the problem are not the ads themselves, but the tracking. I’m completely fine with ads, as long as I’m not tracked by their provider

Did not know about this, but it looks great! Wishlisting it

Wrong discussion

Matrix is not part of the Fediverse

As a browser? Firefox. The answer is always just Firefox. It’s not perfect by any means, but it’s the best in terms of privacy and ethics. It’s not shady like Brave is, it’s not Chromium-based like any other browser, and Mozilla is actively engaged in making the web a better place.

I’ve had the chance to discuss numerous times with people about other browsers, and I honestly don’t get why they always look elsewhere, when Firefox exists.

P.s.: sorry about the tirade, I obviously don’t have anything against you. It’s just that Firefox has existed for 21 years and it has been consistently user-focused and privacy-centric and I really don’t understand why people don’t just use it - maybe because it’s not as new and thus does not look as attractive as other browsers

I don’t know what to think about this acquisition. What I do know is that the FTC should pick their battles in a different way. There are at least a couple of other tech companies (Google, Amazon) that should be broken up because they’re monopolies and I don’t know why nobody at the FTC seems to be looking at them.

Being more like myself and stop desperately trying to appeal to other people. You’d think that’s easy, but noooope. Especially considering the fact that, after years of behaving like other people expect you to behave, you start forgetting who you really are.

with LineageOS from day 1

Same here! I had been living with degoogled ROMs since 2013-ish and I bought the OP5T with the specific intention of using Lineage from day 1.

Nowadays I struggle to find a potential successor: I need a headphone jack (so no Fairphone, unfortunately) and that makes it waaay more difficult. Sony Xperias are probably my best shot

I’m currently using a Oneplus 5T. Released in 2017. Slapped LineageOS on it, and that bad boy is still my daily driver and one of my most prized possessions. I dread the day when it will break, but it’s not yet showing any signs of weakness

Lol I was about to say the same. If an idea has never been in a game maybe it’s just because it sucks, lol
