Than matrix? Me, too. It’s so complex, cumbersome, and full of half-functional clients.

I think it was a joke 🙂

Even today I see many bemoaning the GDPR’s “onerous” obligations. Data just isn’t seen like the nuclear waste it is, sadly.

Goebbels would be proud.

I don’t put much stock in antivirus companies or their products, personally. They may be one of the better ones of the bunch, I don’t know.

Azire is great, they just dont have port forwarding. For that reason I use airvpn witch is okay too.

[edit] whoa, just noticed they got bought by malwarebytes. There goes that recommendation.

That was a great read, particularly as someone with cynical tendencies that lend me to giving up. Thank you.

Cogently put. Thank you!

Please explain.

Sure. I wasn’t sure if you were still thinking that guest edits still showed your IP. Automatic temp accounts was only recently implemented, IIRC.

The volume - weaponization levels of spew - makes a difference between an average Joe gullibly “charging” their phone in a microwave to the future of nations and their public being undermined.

As someone that’s run older pixels on LineageOS for years now (no gapps, just fdroid), what benefits would I be getting from using graphene? I appreciate the hardening they do but my needs are fairly simple.

I’ve found the deck magnification shortcut to be unhelpful when I’ve used it - often because the resolution of the text isn’t high enough for it to look legible when blown up.

I imagine they will inevitably enshittify since the buyout but they seem to be good still for now.

The nice thing is I get to download the files so I’m not fucked when it happens.

American here. We definitely use it as a verb, most commonly as “it pains me to say…” It isn’t too common an expression, though, which might have been the oddity for the GP.

Same here. Might as well.

Thanks for showing, I didn’t know about that. Proprietary, of course…

You have to pair first. Then you have to troubleshoot because Bluetooth isn’t very good. And then you get slow transfer rates.

With airdrop you literally open it up, find the person, then drop it. No pairing, no bullshit. It just works and you get on with your life.

It’s very, very useful for people to share videos instantly. For instance, someone takes a video at the end of a dance class and then sends it to the teacher for them to post online after. Or two people want to practice something so they record a small thing and send to the other person. It’s seamless and really quick.

Android users end up having to wait for someone to upload to e.g. Dropbox and then share a link.
