I don’t have time today

Sometimes yes in my experience, but mostly it works fine. I suspect it’s a game of whack-a-mole with VPN companies constantly rotating IPs.

When will F-Droid stop working on stock android?

That’s actually interesting because Google’s MVNO is on T-Mobile and Google was pushing hard for RCS.

Same. I have to imagine there are some devs out there who will start working on Linux ports of their apps.

How are you liking Kagi? Is it worth it?

It says “for the purposes of cleaning image search engines” but also I’m sure the venn diagram of sites with AI images and slop sites with AI text are nearly a circle.

I would prefer one that removed AI slop sites from search but I suppose if a site has AI images then it’s for all intents and purposes slop anyway.

Thanks, I’m still learning but so far there hasn’t been any application I need that there isn’t some equivalent of.

I just last month tried out Bazzite for fun and haven’t switched back. I feel like an idiot for sticking with Windows as long as I did. I was the metaphorical frog in the pot of water not realizing how shitty it had become. I guess I should be grateful there isn’t any program I need that’s Windows only because Bazzite is better than Windows in every way I can think of.

Uh, he confirmed in a reply that he had no evidence and was deciding based on faith alone.

I can’t believe I need to explain to someone that claiming you don’t need evidence to declare something to be true is faith based on vibes. Tiktok has truly broken the younger generations brains.

This is depressing. Trial by vibes. I’m going to live in the woods.

Something can’t be both “100%” and vibes based lol

Unless you mean “I am 100% basing the following opinion on vibes”.

You need evidence. Please don’t respond with more vibes.

my question is, does it really matter doing all of that before deleting when it comes to privacy?

It doesn’t hurt to be thorough but FWIW they say it will be deleted:

What happens if I permanently delete my Facebook account?

Your profile, photos, posts, videos, and everything else you’ve added will be permanently deleted. You won’t be able to retrieve anything you’ve added.

If you’re only watching subscriptions and not scrolling the generated feeds, you could presumably run tubearchivist through a VPN and then watch via Jellyfin or Plex (there are plugins).

It will not only be private but it has sponsorblock.

But there are dozens of people in this very thread who if I am understanding correctly are willing to offer the same service for free to prove their point that Plex is evil.

ok

Sorry to have annoyed you.
