  • They haven't been updated in a while. Luckily there is a fork of openboard that is being updated and works quite well: https://github.com/Helium314/openboard You can easily install and update it with Obtainium.

  • I might replace Microsoft with Linux in Windows 12

  • Right now I'm just using Cromite on mobile and Firefox on desktop. Not having sync sucks though. No Bitwarden auto fill support on Cromite yet either (though it should be coming soon). I still have FireFox installed on my phone as a backup.

  • Latinx is a word invented by white Americans to describe people from Latin America. But this is about French people using their own language in a new way.

  • I'm not saying it necessarily should be that way, but that's just how the word has been used historically and in the present. Antisemitism has been different from other forms of racism because it is hatred that is often based on conspiracy theories about Jews. Discrimination against Arabs would usually fall under islamophobia (even though not all Arabs are Muslim), or other words like anti-arabism or anti-arab sentiment.

  • Antisemitism refers to discrimination against Jews, not any semitic people. Also, there aren't any Arabs mentioned in the article.

  • Been happening to me for a while. Someone on Grindr has been messaging me the same boring selfies of himself from different accounts almost every day for the past year and a half.

  • There has been a lot of debate over the last ~200 years of history of socialism. Not everyone is in agreement on everything.

  • Probably so it can still support FireFox sync.

  • Generally, there's no need for anything other than uBlock Origin.

  • You couldn't even pay me to use Twitter

  • Are they going to ban LGBT people from the internet like the US is trying to do?

  • I like Thunder too but I find Voyager, Eternity, and Sync are way smoother

  • In general, you should use as few as possible.

    On FireFox browser, the best privacy extension is uBlock Origin. I wouldn't use any other extension for ad blocking or privacy unless it is for something specific you need that uBlock Origin cannot do on its own. NoScript is another privacy extension that is sometimes recommended.

    There may also be some benefit to using the extension for your password manager, as it may help you identify phishing links and prevent you from filling in your password on fake or scam sites. I strongly recommend Bitwarden as a password manager.

    Installing extensions is unlikely to help you defend against fingerprinting. If you are concerned about fingerprinting, then you should enable resist.fingerprint in the about:config on FireFox, or use either Tor or Mullvad Browser (which you should not install any extensions on).

  • Ultimately you will have to make some concessions in regards to privacy. Most people aren't going to install Signal just to talk to you because it does not fit their use case.

    I'm also gen z and from the US, I go to university, and most people who I know use Whatsapp or Discord to communicate. While Whatsapp is not perfect, their messages are end-to-end encrypted, which is much better than most other mainstream platforms (I would honestly say that it is better than Telegram). Discord can at least be accessed through a browser with an email alias.

    My preference for communication would be:

    Best realistic case: Whatsapp or iMessage (if you have an Apple device)

    Reluctantly use: Discord, Instagram, Telegram, SMS, any messenger that can be accessed through the browser without installing an app

  • I don't think most fundamentalists even understand their own fairy tales

  • Because not every app you download needs to know all of your information
