For me on Gnome Files (Nautilus) its little things:

• List view of files which they had but REMOVED
• Using Alt up/down instead of backspace. Must admit unlearning this helped me use it on Win11 the same way
• Recent places (folders not files) which was removed also iirc

For me an indicator would be Cwtch.

Its an onion adress based metadata surveillance resistant chat app with a high focus on privacy.

Developed in. ... Flutter.

Maybe this thread is also interesting

I have sometimes the other way around: Grub keeps working fine but Win11 update reboots and looses the Bitlocker Key.

Have it on my phone just in case and needed it six times now. Quite tedious to put it in but doable

I believe Firefox had their fair share of problematic clones but they dont protect from that by licensing their code in a special way. They protect their brand and use of logo etc

So you can use the code and create something "new", you just cant call it Firefox anymore.

There is a big difference between posting in public non confidential stuff and an app tracking all your clicks and likes and device contacts and telemetry

I supposed the topic starter meant the last one

if you want something niche instead of mainstream: Cwtch

p2p, chat-over-onion, meta data suveillance resistant

In any numeral system 😁😎

Linux 24H1

some people even change default system fonts used in the deskop environment (menu's, filemanager etc) 😎😁

Companies small and big are used to have hosting managed for them. Websites cms-es etc, why would selecting a Mastodon provider be any different?

As for defederation:

• Would I defederate/block brands I dont like preemptively? Only a few. Would I care if CocaCola has an instance? No.
• Would mastodon.social defederate Nike? Cant speak for Eugen but I dont think they have a defederate policy against brands?
• Would FediBlock maintain a branding blocklist just for the sake of being a brand instance? Doubt it.

Depends on your definition of tolerant.

If it implies adtech and trackers, then no. If it implies joining a random instance and spamming it, then no.

But any organisation is free to manage their own fediverse instance or get managed Mastodon hosting on their own domain.

So fans of their products can follow them and their webcare team can respond to questions.

👆👆👆👆👆👆 Came looking for this one. Because somehow Joe Average ends up with keyboards having "added value" like Giphy (from Meta) integration and online spell checkers because local dictionaries are to oldskool.

Also all Android / iOS apps with Facebook and Google trackers in them share device info and data easy to correlate, icw sites having FB pixels also.

Dont know, didnt compare them much. I ignored Calibre untill now because it seemed primarly for e-books which I dont have. Sumatra seems not available for Linux. And I am on dual boot but prefer the same apps for both Win11 as Deb12

Guess I'm nobody

Your argument is leaps and bounds ahead 😎

thnx, very usefull! Small remark: Okular has a Windows package.
