Are the problem with the people who watch the video, or the people who create, or host the videos?

Nah. I’m British, and today is 31/12/2023. We use slashes. American’s are just wrong.

Valid question. After reading his opinions, why would anyone follow his mastodon?

If he’s a good YouTuber, it’s like following a footballer who has shit opinions. I’ll watch you play football, but screw following your nonsense stream of consciousness.

Oh I know. It is your call. I’ve not seen much evidence of tutanova/proton Lemmy adverts. This service is quite new in comparison and there is clearly some astroturfing on lemmy. We don’t know how good or bad they are tbh. The fact they are pushing it rather than relying on word of mouth is a little sketchy.

Whether it is deleted or not, I’ll at least call out advertising so people are aware rather than being led to believe it is recommended.

We don’t know what it is, but there is history on Lemmy of them listing out every feature, asking I’d anyone used it as they didn’t. Why woupd anyone do that? More blatant in the past, but worth being on guard against them.

Plus advertising e2e encrypted emaill which is impossible unless recipient is same service.

Probably an ad, but much more subtle if so. The old ones were so blatant. :)

What makes you do it with a smile? What does it give you that proton or tutanota doesn’t?

Nothing has exactly the same experience as MS. I don’t think there is a clone project for it.

The two you listed are your best options.

Does LibreOffice have any issues that prevent you using it? If not, it’s probably that your expectations are set by your comfort and familiarity with Office and that is the problem you need to solve.

Like the time when a kid in school tried to create their own nickname and everyone noped the fuck out and carried on calling them the same thing they were.

You don’t get to pick your nickname, even if you started trying 20 years ago, FF.

You know it’s a 3 character documentation change.

Why are you here exactly?

Is google needed? Could a mail alternative like proton mail be better?

Unless Quake was made with Copilot, that seems very unlikely:

Those that truly dislike MS and telemetry won’t.

If I’m using non-free it is Jet Brains.

I tend to use Kate, KDevelop.

MS still slurping code into Copilot from Github and telemetry in VSCode.

By browsers do you mean search engines in the browsers? I use DDG for search. Firefox is king, browsers wise.

It is closed but not necessarily bad. It was rated highly on the Mozilla Privacy Not Included.

If one of their relatives had cancer, it would be belittling that experience. I would not do that unless I wanted to be a dick.

A fully working Linux Phone with good battery life that supports a good matrix client with e2 encryption. GrapheneOS is good, but we need initiatives independent from Google.

If they can turn it over, then it isn’t exactly end to end encrypted… You don’t own the keys.

I’ll just avoid the cloud… the cloud… is just someone else’s computer…

Their delayed implementation of this has definitely affected my confidence in them. I was very close to considering Apple before that, but when someone shows you their true colours, believe them :).

Now on GrapheneOS on the Pixel 6a. One of the best decisions I made :)
