Just get the f out of gmail. Almost anything else is better. Dont hold off for perfection as it doesn't exist. I use Proton and Tuta. I won't renew Proton because CEO is a wanker. Migration to Tuta was good and they have Tuta calendar.

As we say in my home town, "Wankers!". I need to have this WhatsApp BS as its the only way to stay connected with older relatives and work groups. I'm using RethinkDNS on my phone and have blocked as many Meta DNS and network links as I can find online. Exactly none of them show up on my firewall logs! The connections in/ out appear to be via "safe" routes, which if blocked then break wider functionality. To use yet another completely unheard of home town phrases, "Bastards".

Greek leaders adopted the policy of headlines of catching bad people vs catching actual bad people. Sadly same in UK, US etc.

For Android:

1. Use ADB (or similar tools) to remove Facebook, Meta, Twatter, Instagram, etc., from all your Android devices.
2. Use a tool like RethinkDNS or other firewall to block block block. If using RethinkDNS, apply good blockers too.
3. If using a firewall that uses your VPN slot, setup wireguard to use your VPN host
4. Have different browsers on your device e.g. Brave, IronFox, Cromite. Follow online guides to set up.
5. Use DuckDuckGo, SearXNG or Mullvadleta to search
6. Never access Facebook, Insta, Twitter etc. from your mobile device. In fact, if you have the right firewall / blocking set up, you simply cannot.
7. Do as much online shopping from a laptop / PC with a secure browser. Also, have about 3 different browsers there too.
8. If you MUST use Facebook etc., only do it from a browser on your laptop / PC.

Just my personal strategy. My firewall logs show its quite effective but not fully impervious.

This is the way

Yes the unmistakeable left wingers like Robert JFK and pals.

I use CollabraOffice and also muPDF. Collabra is great for viewing and some minor work, but I try to use libreoffice on my laptop running Debian for real productivity.

Just had a look. Much appreciated, thanks mate.

This should be like when Japan started turning out cheap and reliable watches. The best safest and most cost effective products must be available for all. In the UK there's a huge market growth in EVs from Kia and Hyundai, (Korean), Volvo (Chinese), MG (Chinese). Recently BYD has taken the market by a little storm. Traditional manufacturers like Ford, BMW, VW etc. all late to the party, and only just catching up. They have been protected.

Aves is the way. For now, just fit and forget.

This is a shitshow. I use open source mobile office suite and Outlook continually refuses to open PDF or other documents as nothing is installed, so would I like to use their bag of shit instead.

Some define violence as a strongly worded email. Handling personal disputes with physical or verbal agression is a no no. Peaceful protest are a yes. Be like Ghandi, MLK, Rosa Parks and others. Don't be the same as the so called MAGA and proud boys in the US, or the UKIP / Farage twats in the UK. Just my personal view.

I use Cromite and Brave (yeah yeah) plus IronFox via Accrescent.
Brave may well have undesireables like the CEO, cryptocurrency etc., but so easy to switch off. Use your device with RethinkDNS (with or without Wireguard configured) to remove further wrinkles.

Slavery by any other name.

1. MAGA = Inhuman.
2. Lives are saved by supporting this nurse in getting her fellow Christians to stop following MAGA twats.
3. Now isn't the time to dilute her impact by debating the pros and cons of various beliefs. We have a facist to beat.

Aimed entirely to appease and impress the many MAGA / Trump voting dumbasses.

Definitely have multiple browsers. IronFox is a great option. I use Brave as it simply works with the onboard filters and hardening. There are a few easy guides to walk through the settings changes that improve the picture.

That works for me, but how do the browser builders achieve that privacy AND retain at least reasonable useability for normal / majority users?

They'd ban the RPi if they could too

++++ for making people aware of Peertube.
