Repeat after me “Fines need to be tied to global revenue”. It has to hurt, if you want companies to stop.

I think it’s hilarious that western leaders are worried about provoking Russia by providing Ukraine with weaponry that can be used in Russian territory.
Russia is at war with us. It’s not tanks, fighter jets and battleships. It’s cyber warfare, disinfomation campaigns, bribing of right wing politicians and poisonings. Just because nobody wants to call it a war, doesn’t make it go away.
No, it’s an android app.
I don’t like to install an app for every service or product, but newpipe adds so much value, that it’s a no-brainer for me.
I don’t see the value in using an extension just to automatically watch YouTube in HD. Maybe 10 years ago, but now we got Newpipe.
Also Google Search has gone downhill for quite some time now. Why should I install an extension that reverts the enshittification Google has deliberately created?
DDG, Qwant, searXNG maybe even Brave or Kagi are better options. If you like Google Search so much, at least use Startpage.
Logseq + Syncthing for Linux and Android
More and more aspects of life require an app or at least a smartphone (QR codes). That already excludes older people from some aspects of daily life. Let’s do the same for kids!
Politicians should do their jobs and regulate tech and social media not ban useful devices.
HDR? Ah, you mean when videos keep flickering on Wayland!
I will switch when I need a new GPU.
When knowledge is deliberately gated by large entities and the author would give it away for free (scientific papers) is a no-brainer for me. Or when a course requires specific textbooks that costs hundreds of dollars.
How was there never a legal battle between KDE and Mortal Kombat?
Why companies aren’t fined for every customers data they didn’t secure properly is beyond me. This should cost them a specific sum per customer or part of their annual global revenue. Make it hurt.
Otherwise they have no reason to spend money to properly secure people’s data.
I hop between invidious, piped and Freetube regularly. Had some instances when both piped and invidious don’t work at all.
I’m looking into Proton, Windscribe and AirVPN atm. Travelling the high seas is my main reason for a VPN. In the past I didn’t use it enough to switch from Mullvad, which I liked except for their port forwarding switch.
Thanks for the hint.
Yeah, I was getting desperate 😆
I try Wayland from time to time, but my 4k60Hz TV (HDMI) keeps having problems.
Under Wayland I only get 30Hz and sometimes it makes the system very laggy.
Great. Now I’ll wait another year to get it for at least 50% off.
Not participating in a disinformation war reminds me of the hesitation to allow Ukraine to strike Russian territory with the supplied weapons. What incentive does thr other side have to stop?
