This is what I think: You cannot be 100% private, but you can be 95% private. Most of the tracking I want to avoid is from websites, mail and my devices OS.
With ublock origin in advanced mode, thunderbird + Protonmail, Linux (I’m dual booting and also have a windows VM for the things not working on Linux) and a VPN I can reach a satisfying amount of privacy without wasting too much time and effort. I’m also hosting an unfederated matrix server for private communications but I rarely use it.
To have better privacy than this I’d need a lot more effort, but the return wouldn’t be big enough, so I’m good. The only other thing I’d like to do is switching to a phone with grapheneOS or something like that.
I started watching alpha beta gamer on YouTube and rediscovered a love for indie games (channel is horror/weird focused but here I mean all kinds). Short and original, they are great to play and never too long. People’s taste are different but maybe we could have a group/playlist on steam

Search engines such as Google need to rank results in some way, to decide which ones to display on top.
This algorithm changes depending on new developments, both cultural and technical, see Google recently putting results from reddit firsts.
One typical way to do this is checking “how many other websites are pointing at this result”, and since traffic is money, people try to game the algorithm by creating fake websites which links to the one they want to push.
Sadly KDE 6 broke a lot of stuff, the next Nvidia driver update 555 should fix most of those issues (it’s in beta right now).
For single issues with games you should specify more so we can help.
I’m using an MMO mouse (the ones with 12 buttons on the side) myself, and sadly there is no mouse with native support for macro on Linux, but a lot of them are supported thanks to developers (see Piper for example), which mouse is it?
Always dual booted Linux (ubuntu/mint/manjaro/endeavor) and windows (8/10/11) without issues. I think windows published an update (happened only once if I remember correctly) that wiped Linux partitions so yeah, it can happen, but to me that has the same chance of windows breaking itself because of an update (same with Linux). Honestly just take a backup and try whatever distro you like. If you just want to see what Linux is like you can use virtualbox on windows and install it on a virtual machine.
Dual booting is hard to setup the first time so you may want to have another pc with a guide and a forum ready for help. To me the hardest part was how to understand the partitions for swap/home/root/efi etc. but newer Linux installers have a wizard that usually does everything
Things to remember if you decide to dual boot:
I had the Soldier of Fortune original game disk, but lost the box with the CD key. Mailed the devs/publishers asking for help, sending a picture of the disks, and they basically told me that I should have been more careful. Googled “soldier of fortune CD key” and ended up on one of those now-defunct websites which collected cracks and CD keys, discovering that not only you didn’t need the key, but you could also just download free stuff.
Now I pay for Prime Video, Netflix and Spotify and buy lots of games on steam/gog, but I also created an app used by thousands of people every month to help them sail the four seas
Exactly, you just have to pick SvelteKit
Opening a link in Firefox reader mode would be pretty cool!
I’ll try looking to see how easy it is to create an extension
https://github.com/mozilla/readability/
Edit: maybe this extension can be used https://webextension.org/listing/chrome-reader-view.html
Fire stick and the shield are both android devices so you can just install whatever you want
That must mean it’s working! :D
I use a self hosted vpn because my main reason to use a vpn is avoiding monitoring from my isp and whoever is managing the local network, and I don’t want websites to know where I’m located.
Yes. I used it too for a year but the clients were bad
Yes it’s awesome, I use it with Microsoft terminal for tabs + themes, thanks to that I still have to learn how to use powershell
You can try the todo from goblin tools, you describe the main task and it tries to split it into sub tasks for you. I’ve tried it a couple of times and it wasn’t bad
Definitely a good suggestion, next time I’ll remember that 20/30 extra $$ is less than 200
This was for a music festival too, at least I immediately bought the ticket for that and for flying there, so that was quite cheaper
It was just when/where to land when coming back, since I had to pick between 3 cities and a couple of available dates
You could redirect invidious to free tube
