This use case could also be covered with a similar technical solution. The device decides what features will be allowed to run. If the political willpower for a better solution exists, the technical side is readily solved.

If one is going through the hassle of joining a video call on a different device to then scan it with their smartphone, all to just connect with another person, you could reasonably assume that they're friends. Maybe if there's a

What wild customisations are you talking about? As someone who used Linux (Ubuntu, Fedora, OpenSuse, Arch) exclusively from 2010 and recently moved to bazzite, I only see positives from the switch. Most of my usecases work OOTB, and for eve

As a long term linux user, I agree with the comments that essentially say: "you found a hobby and not an OS". While I see that recommending a different distro seems like more change and more fiddling about, Bazzite is something to

Not OP, but I feel like moving from Google to Zoho is just kicking the can down the road. You don't know how these big corporations will change their product or (more importantly for cash strapped organisations like Universities) their

Blocking the advertising itself only shields you from the advertising, it still lets these services set up the underlying surveillance/advertising system that harms society (and you) in the long run. Of course it's not always poss

If you're interested in self-hosting your orchestration server, you can look into Netbird. It's a very similar tool, but has the server open sourced as well. So you have a self-hosted control server with a nice GUI and all the fea

Container tabs and specifically Temporary Containers are the two things I always miss on non-Firefox browsers

If I've understood correctly, it might not be necessary to isolate everything in different containers. As long as you block social logins using an adblocker, the total cookie protection in firefox shouldn't allow websites to know

I've been trying out Ptyxis for a few weeks now and it's quite nice to use with Distrobox or other containers. It's easy to set up profiles with particular docker containers and it automatically picks up distrobox containers.

Going by the pattern of the comment, I would assume this was a typo. Maybe they intended to say: "If it's no problem and we DON'T avoid it = No problem"

The simplest way of doing this would be to export your bitwarden vault in plaintext (as a json or csv) and then store it as a password protected zip file. This should be easy to encrypt and decrypt on all operating systems, and would make i

Not to mention subsidised parking spaces. Free and even paid street parking is highly subsidised by the city and by other tax payers. There's also the environmental cost of not having that land be a park or nature and instead have it c

Exactly this. It is all about how they market themselves. If they had promoted themselves as a social media-ish platform, nobody would be causing a fuss about their encryption. Neither discord, nor any of the popular IRC clients (HexChat, W
