I see you’ve already posted it, but YouTube links should be fine. Traditionally, it was better to post Invidious links; but thanks to Google, this links don’t tend to keep working for too long these days.
On the other hand, if a video also exists on media.ccc.de or PeerTube, that would be the preferred option. YouTube is still acceptable, though.
Moral of the story? Don’t read the Express. To quote Dave Gorman, it’s a crock of shit.
I think you may be responding to the wrong comment
Well, most laptops have removable WiFi cards, but if you want to go the extra mile you could try an early-2000s or late-90s ThinkPad (from back when they were made by IBM).
I tried to use it, but I couldn’t get it working (I couldn’t receive any messages, and neither could my brother). In the end, I opted for Matrix instead.
Eh, kinda. It’s not quite as easy to escape from GApps as it is to install Linux, though, so it’s understandable.
My advice is to look into LineageOS, DivestOS, and GrapheneOS and see if your device is supported by anyone. If not, it’s possible to remove GApps using ADB, and you can use NextDNS to block tracking.
Gotta love FreeTube. PokeTube also works decently, although it only supports subscriptions via RSS.
Well, that explains how the NSA keep getting in every so often.
Yeah, I wouldn’t trust anything these guys publish: https://mediabiasfactcheck.com/mint-press-news/
I quite like 4get, but SearXNG is probably closer to what you want.
Since you’re using Edge, I’ll assume you’re running Windows. In that case, I’d recommend either Librewolf or ungoogled-chromium.
I, myself, use Mullvad Browser and Links2, but they’re not quite as good for new users.
Lemmy.ca and Sopuli both worked fine on ProtonVPN, and .ca also seems to be fine on Mullvad.
Neither newpipe nor libretube work for me anymore for a while now.
…except NewPipe doesn’t work.
I’d say that your best bet is FreeTube, which got ported to Android back in 2020. I’ve only been using it for a few weeks, since I only got ahold of an Android device this month, but it has never let me down.
It’s available on the IzzyOnDroid repo, and as an APK, so you can install it with F-Droid or Obtainium (or manually).
Remember, of course, that Wickr has been owned by Amazon since 2021.

You need Windows to run Odin. Fastboot doesn’t work for Samsung, and Heimdall hasn’t been updated for seven years.
Well, GrapheneOs is a bit easier. GOS uses a WebUSB installer, which does a lot of the work for you.
LineageOS requires things like ADB and Fastboot. In my case, however, it was a Samsung device, so I had to install Windows and then mess around with Odin.
I also ended up soft-bricking the device by trying to sideload the OS before it had finished downloading.
It seems to be running well on my Galaxy Tab A7. Definitely better than One UI or whatever it came with.
I mean soft-bricked. I fixed it, but it made things more difficult.
Fuck’s sake
