Well, there’s Libreddit. If you absolutely must browse reddit, consider using Libreddit instead. No interactions though (there’s lemmy for that :p).

just living, but sometimes it feels reality is rawdogging me though. But that’s just life.

It’s bit hard to wrap my head around it. I think I’ll give joplin a try, if that doesn’t work out then maybe I’ll give anytype another go.

But won’t I need an account, and even without login, watch activity on youtube for it to churn out similar recommendations. First priority is not to use youtube, recommendations are a good to have.

There is this guide available for fitgirl and dodi repacks. Haven’t tried for dodi but fitgirl works for me, but process is pretty much same. Have fun

I haven’t personally experienced it. But have observed a discussion between product manager and engineer who had to put it. Seemed like regular business to him, he didn’t seem bothered at all.

I am on proton plus, have to decide between proton unlimited (1/2 year plan) to get proton vpn, or continue with proton plus and get mullvad vpn.

My time is more valuable than money, but I still pirate. To me it’s not about money but principles.
If I pay for something and still can’t “own” it, I pirate.
If a generous portion of the money I pay isn’t going to the rightful individuals but to our corporate overlords, I pirate.
If my internet freedom is threatened, I pirate.

If someone pirates due to lack of money and one day they have enough, I suggest keep pirating and donate to FOSS and pay to individual creators.
