I don’t really have a “methodology” per se, I really just focus my tags on the terms I would use if I were to search online for the same thing, or even as a category to keep bookmarks for a specific topic organized. As an example, for all the web resources I may use when playing Star Citizen, I tag those web sites with #starcitizen, for sites that may have given me guidance on doing something on the linux cli, I tag it #linuxcli. I also really don’t obsess over the “cleanliness” of the tags and such, but instead just use Linkding as a database that I can search. I’m not sure if this helps, but hopefully it does!

I migrated all my Firefox bookmarks to a self-hosted Linkding instance. https://github.com/sissbruecker/linkding/ Lightweight and once you get a tagging methodology in place its super useful.

I donate monthly to the EFF.

How about American companies and institutions that have a physical presence in this country? Pretty sure these nation states already have their data. Too late and not even remotely enough IMO.

not enough obv.

one would think someone that calls himself THE MASTERMIND would know all… also LM Studio and no i’m not going to give you a link, your browser can do that for you

PII or anything that would demonstrate clear attribution is LAN, the rest of the “fun” stuff lives on a VPS. Wireguard between them.

its always DNS

most likely Peek-a-Boo, or outside either Tag or Hide and Seek, if not something like Mouse Trap or Candy Land for board games

If you’re asking about video games, Pong on some sort of Realistic/Tandy console system in the late 70s when I would go to work with my father at Radio Shack (back when it was legit) and he would put me in front of the black&white.
