  • Yeah I don't personally like how unlike LibreWolf it doesn't use ResistFingerprinting.

  • Not OP, but I've never heard of IronFox. Is it a comparable replacement for Mull? Gods I'm still a bit salty over how sudden that was...

  • LibreWolf is what I use, but I heard Zen Browser is another fork that's been getting some traction. I don't use it though, but I've heard from someone who does that it works for them. thumbs-up

  • This is why I still use a card instead of those newfangled "phone wallets". If I go on PayPal or my bank website, I do so through my browser. (and log out when I'm done—that's most important!)

  • 100-200% depending on how good the service was.

    Downside to this is I can't afford to go out as often. :C

  • Not a bad set of promising suggestions... Thanks!

    And yeah, I've found Proton to be invaluable for making things soooo much easier, but if a game doesn't have a page, it's not as easy. Lol.

  • Yeah, I don't really buy most of my games through Steam. Mainly just GOG since I like to own my games. Still, I will buy from time to time games on Steam, like with the Portal/Half-Life sale like half a year ago or whatever, to support Valve, which is a good company and I respect them a lot.

  • Meh. There are so many instances that I don't really judge someone by what instance they're on; I judge someone based on what they do.

  • Pshh, hardly.

    Make no mistake: things can always get worse.

  • They cancel each other out, collapse into a black hole, and rip apart the Universe. /j

  • I've been using Linux Mint for the last 1–2 months (or so) and one of the things I miss the most is how on Windows, games just run (typically). Now, on Linux, one of the very first things I do upon wanting to play a new game is check the ProtonDb page. I am not always able to play the game I want. There's often not even any ProtonDb page for a lot of older games, notably in my case Jazz Jackrabbit. (For example, even though the Jazz Jackrabbit Collection on GOG has a Linux installer, for some reason it won't run.)

    Make no mistake, I ain't never going back to Windows for my personal use if I have anything to say about it. The sense of personal security I feel from not having my every move be captured, scrutinized, and sold by Microsoft is way too important to me. If I can have that feeling of relative comfort by forgoing a few games, it seems like a worthwhile price to me.

    Nevertheless, the "plug-and-play" nature of games designed for Windows is something I miss.

  • First, I appreciate you taking the time to provide your thoughts on this even though the post is 2 years old. :)

    Second, no worries. I've found an option. I just use MakeMKV. I even bought a paid license! It's that good! ;)

  • I appreciate you explaining this to me. :)

  • A decent explanation. Thank you. :)

  • I heard Tuta is a honeypot. Is this not the case?
