Yes, I use it and generally like it. Their app is a little buggy, but they have email support and accept bug reports on GitHub. This is helpful for finding out what other users are seeing. It's a small dev team with frequent releases

I'm not sure what you mean. The "overhead" is putting your different logins into a password manager, no?

That's correct. You get better export tools with Google compared to Proton. Because of this alone I'd recommend not storing your important data with Proton

Ukraine losing would be terrible for Trump. It makes him look weak and bad at foreign policy. Everyone knows that Russia invaded Ukraine unprovoked, and they'll do it again

For electronics try Swappa or Jawa

I understand your point and I support & contribute to FOSS. But I was specifically addressing the claim that Telegram reads all messages and sells them to the highest bidder. They don't currently, unless someone can point me towards a credible source

• Pebble Time Steel (2015)
  • Helps me use my phone less, timers/alarms/stopwatch, rings my phone when lost, sleep tracking
• Galaxy Buds Plus (2020)
  • No frills, battery life is excellent due to no ANC, compact charging case
• Soundfreaq Sound Spot (2013)
  • Easy to use, hook up two for stereo, sounds fine to my ear, found another recently for $20

Most stuff works as expected. Here's a guide from 9to5Google

Yeah, I think those two definitely aren't enough. Plus asking for an interest doesn't make a lot of sense coming over from Reddit. Most people aren't looking to join a server for only interest because they're used to being in subreddits for various interests

China is pro-Palestinian, so it's still directly related

I've used Telegram for years and never seen an ad. Their Privacy Policy says ads aren't based on messages

Unlike other services, we don't use your data for ad targeting or other commercial purposes. Telegram only stores the information it needs to function as a secure and feature-rich cloud service.

Telegram offers a tool for advertisers to promote their messages in public one-to-many channels, but these sponsored messages are based solely on the topic of the public channels in which they are shown. No user data is mined or analyzed to display ads or sponsored messages.

I have tracked them down: https://joesdaily.com/food-drink/hellofresh-spice-blends-how-to-make-them/

The trick is to use a search engine. In my case, I used DuckDuckGo

Perhaps if the differences between servers could be codified into one place then someone could create a "quiz" to help users narrow in on servers that are a good fit. Like this website: https://www.dumbphones.org/dumbphone-quiz

On the Orion forums their staff consistently bullies people around

I used to use it but on a technical level it was consistently disappointing. There are a number of creators who have joined then subsequently left Nebula, often on bad terms. I expect that to continue to be the case, so I don't have a lot of faith in its sustainability personally. Pursuing classes and exclusive content seems misguided in the long-term.

It's not much better on the Slack side in my experience. They announced a months-long issue recently

socialist like platform having an audience. Which in my opinion is why they wanted to force a sell or just ban Tiktok.

This logic doesn't follow. What does forcing a sale have to do with being "socialist like" ? TikTok has been diluted into a sales platform anyway.

If didn't work on it, someone else would.

I'm not trying to critique or judge you, but I think it's worth pointing out this is a logical fallacy.

What does a "release" mean in this context?

If you don't want to appear like a bot when applying I recommend doing this yourself like everyone else. The ATS will flag it
