Reddit 2.0…already migrating off this censorship.

You can use LASIM app (Windows/Mac/Linux) to migrate your profile and settings to another instance. Highly recommend.

I don’t trust any of these players, especially Adobe, who has always been king of the proprietary shitlords. If they are forming this “committee” or “alliance,” why aren’t there any open source players appointed?

LOL, we can all come off sounding a little assholish, don’t worry about it. You made sound points. The OP came off sounding a bugle of fear without doing any research, or backing up any of their concerns. You stepped up.

TLDR being there is no reason to look beyond Fedora…

This whole privacy issue is about trust. And clearly your privacy recommendations are biased. For example, you seem to put all your trust in Fedora, a corporation owned by Red Hat…OWNED. A distro starting to 'trample on user’s privacy with telemetry integration.’

Now you might say that telemetry isn’t like the others, it is “anonymised.” Except that is what corporations always say before they remove the username from the data collected and keep the unique user id. Again, it is about who you trust, and usually corporations are working and focused on the dollar, not the user.

I encourage anyone to look at other privacy recommendation sites, and form your own conclusions.

I would not recommend this guide. It only recommends rolling releases, so basically Arch. I use Arch btw, Garuda. However, it then goes on to say that only moderate or advanced users should use Arch. It also doesn’t recommend Debian or any debian based distros. I find this funny as many corporate servers use Debian, and I don’t really see any huge security issues since the 90’s waving red flags of warnings and issues. By following this guide, it really leaves no option for beginner linux enthusiasts. I (we) recommend not folloing this guide as it reads like privacy paranoia propaganda piece.

Well said.

Curious, have you addressed this with the Garuda team?

Yeah, I use ‘Keepass2Android Password Safe’ and I think there is one in F-droid (I haven’t tried it) called 'Keepass2Android Offline.

Lovely pic. Brings back lots of memories. I use to live there, loved it. Got out before…well, the rich tech moguls flew in like locust and ruined what once was.

Toppings look good, but the crust is lacking that oven appeal. You might want to try ditching the dutch oven and use two pizza stones. I use a steel pizza on the bottom rack and a stone type pizza stone on the top rack about 8-12inches above. The two stones trap the heat, so if your oven only goes to 500F, it can reach temps between the stones of 600F+ which is what you need for the good crust appearancea and texture. Let the oven heat for about an hour with the stones in.

This world is getting scarier by the day. Sad to watch our freedoms being taken in realtime, and so quickly. Digital currency is the real key. They will shut our money off unless we comply.

KeePassXC is awesome, used it for years. Works great with browser plugin, secure. Sync with Syncthing across all computers and devices.

Great phone, good battery life, although I think there is an issue with Android 13 that shortened it some, not confirmed. I would be more concerned with the security and OS updates ending this October. Unless you intentions are to replace the OS with a Linux based one;

• LineageOS
• GrapheneOS
• CalyxOS
• e.foundation

Pixels are excellent choices if you go the Linux route, almost all of them are supported. Lineage and e.foundation use degoogled OS versions which means the google services are replaced with microg allowing you to still use all your favorite apps from the app store…and still get updates for the linux os and the apps.

Here are the ones I am looking at;

• LineageOS
• GrapheneOS
• CalyxOS
• e.foundation

I think Lineage and e.foundation might be your solution because they use a degoogled verson of android replacing google services with microg. This allows the os to be fully compatible with all the apps.

Same, Summit is great so far.

I have a 4a/5G and speaking of security, I would like to get off the Google spyverse, so I may try replacing Android with real Linux DE, there are a handfull available. All the pixel phones are compatible for replacing.

Google changed its latest privacy police to add total filtering of your info via AI. If that isn’t a “security” concern, it is definetely a privacy one.

If you do want to stay on the Google gravy train, a 7a would be a good replacement. Google has lengthened their support window on new Pixels from 3yrs to 5yrs.
