I agree with Gavin Newsome.

Apparently, attempting to have a conversation about it here is also offensive to moderation. If you even question trans people or the trans community, you’re immediately moderated.

And they say Lemmy is an alternative to Reddit. 🙄

History has been working against us for quite sometime now. The majority of us are one paycheck away from living on the street and not being able to feed our family. It would have to become absolutely dire for us to actually do something about it, as you say.

I’m just curious, why?

Is it as secure as it claims?

Without a third party audit, we’ll never know.

I’ve never had an issue pirating anything with Mullvad.

I used it temporarily and didn’t notice anything. I left to use a custom domain, which they don’t support.

I don’t think many people here use Brave Browser because of their crypto referral program, but they’ve made strides at mitigating fingerprinting. I use Brave Browser on my PC and Android and never had an issue.

If you don’t have a VPN, it’s time to fire one up. I’d suggest Mullvad or Windscribe.

That’s the best free option, and possibly best option overall. I’ve been with them for about five years now and it’s been great.

If someone is using Firefox, they’ve likely already moved on from Chrome at some point.

Sure, I concede. I don’t think of Linux because I don’t use it often, but I understand.

VLC may go down as the greatest FOSS product in history. They’ve stated their mission since the beginning and 20 years later, are still flying that route. It’s unbelievable how much money they’ve turned down to remain on their original mission.

I wish I’d known about them earlier. Their services look awesome. Are there any alternatives that you know about?

I’d assume Sweden after the Swedish government stated they wanted backdoor access to Signal.

I was on the verge of deleting everything online, including my email address, because I’m with you, but at what point does the privacy movement start intruding on enjoyment of daily activity. I’ve accepted that my information will be had in exchange for a good product.

It’s not exactly how I want to operate, but also, life is too short. Ultimately, I’m on the verge of using Mullvad Browser, Mullvad VPN, and probably getting my email hosted out of some small shared hosting platform somewhere.

I think about this type of stuff daily and it’s just exhausting. The Internet has transformed into what we’d hoped it wouldn’t over the past five years.

I think we all need to throw support at Mullvad and Windscribe. I really wish one of them would introduce a Proton-esque type of environment.

This is what has to be done. You introduce a bill directly affecting veterans and make Trump admit he doesn’t give a damn about them.

Biden will forever be tied to bad performance (caused by COVID). The better poll would be Trump v. Obama.
