If your computer is connected to a network, I don't see any downside of enabling a firewall. It's a good security layer to have and costs basically no resources to keep running.
Tried it, think it's a great idea. I used for a week in a half but didn't to commit to buying it for the double dictionary. I just couldn't get used to it and it's particularly bad with accents.
From my personal perspective, the right way to steer people into Linux is to highlight the key features you feel are the best. You don't need to say Windows is bad, only that Linux is amazing. If you just tell people they're masochists and wrong they'll just ignore you. Have a nice day!
I think you're the one ignoring the fact that Windows is the right OS for some people. Everyone has different needs and limitations. There's not one OS that is the right solution for everyone, just like there's no Linux distribution that is right for everyone.
Not masochists, just people with very different needs, privacy concerns and overall tech knowledge than you. Not sure why this is hard to understand by some folks.
I have also been using Discord since the start. I think people have forgotten how painful setting up groups on Skype or other alternative software was.
I might be wrong but I think some people just think all closed software is garbage, doesn't matter how good or cheap it is.
I honestly think it's nice. You're paying for mostly cosmetic stuff and the core Discord experience is unaffected.
I'm not sure if they suck or have shady businesses, but I have never felt the desire to pay for Nitro. I hope they manage to get profit with such an unremarkable set of perks.
I tried Proton for a month for I'd get A LOT of "confirm you're not a robot" when entering a lot of websites. Was really annoying. Did you ever get around that?
Who wouldn't want a ton of feedback about the service provided?
I wish my costumers provided me with all their genuine feedback, all the things they hate about our app and why. All the things they wish it did but doesn't. All the bugs they have found and never reported. Feedback is such a vital and scarce information
