I agree, calling it Twitter just gives the impression of denial that it’s now X, denial that it’s owned by Elon, denial that it’s now shit (it was shit before, worse now though), and feels like justification for continued use of it.

Just call it X in disgust, and move on to Mastodon or something

Oh awesome, I must’ve missed that. Thanks alot, I’ll have a look at that now

There is a lot of very confident, opposing answers here…

May I suggest Tracker Control, allows per-app network access and even restricts certain tracking requests. Only downside is it takes the VPN slot. Very much worth it though I believe

Yes

Ah yes, “hey instead of us tracking you, can you just save us the computation effort and just tell us what you’re into? We’ll still keep tracking you though.” And this is somehow a privacy FEATURE? Even though they clearly say they’ll be sharing thisvinfo with websites you visit? Boggles the mind

Yeah will put an issue on there, but wanted to test another app first in case it’s not due to phonetrack somehow. Away for the weekend so can’t easily test a new app just yet

Out of interest, why do you say that it may not be good for AAA games?

Sounds like you need to check out Org-roam (if you use emacs) or some other zettelkasten style note taking software

This was the answer, called up and got them to unblock ports 80 and 443 (they actually unblocked them all). Thanks alot!

Im installing everything using Bottles though, just via the run executable Burton on the fl studio bottle’s page. I have noticed after installing Kontakt via native instruments, I will be unable to reopen it after closing, with errors about how it can’t find concrt and another dll file. But adding these to the bottle’s system32 doesn’t fix this…

With Australian banks there doesn’t seem to be any problems, if you don’t install gplay, you won’t get notifications though. However I think there were some issues with other countries’ banks, but there’s a list somewhere on the GrapheneOS forums/GitHub for all tested banks.

It really does, but unfortunately they simply have the most secure hardware of android phones. At least you’re just paying for the hardware, but don’t have to continue paying with your privacy (or pack of) if you get Graphene

There’s only one phone that runs GrapheneOS so that’s the one I get. If you’re looking at stock phones, apple is the best for privacy and security, but if you really care about those two things you’re probably not just looking at them stock

Good point, I’ll leave it on then. Thanks for your help!

Ah I see, thank you for the reply!

What would you recommend? I like the idea of the privacy but having that security does also sound good…

Ohhh wow I can’t believe I forgot about that, I feel so dumb hahaha.

Are there any benefits to keeping this switched on? Other than than the security I mean, is the tradeoff between privacy and security worth it in your opinion?

Another lube, like krytox or whatever. I’m sure it’s not 100% optimal to have them mix but it’s probably fine

I always just lube over it as if there wasn’t lube there to begin with

Anyone got good options for ebooks? Currently got calibre setup but only sourcing my books from libgen. Tried using jackett + readarr but the indexers didnt seem great… is it worth paying for indexers? Which ones?
