I use Proton Drive in a browser

I gave it a try yesterday but ultimately the change in UI/UX kinda messed with my flow. My mouse had to travel farther across the screen to change tabs, which was the biggest downside. Too much travelling.

There were also parts of the sidebar I wished had the option to toggle hidden or visible. Didn’t really like the sidebar taking up screen real estate on the sides instead of just the top. Felt a bit too tight and squished in. Even changing from Normal to Touch mode didn’t give me enough space. I kept trying to see how I could move the bar back to the top, lol.

Ended up going back to Floorp.

yessss

Have A Nice Life - Deathconsciousness

earliest memory is of the Nintendo 64, but it’s a blur to me whether i played Crash Bandicoot, Goldeneye, Banjo Kazooie, or Mario Kart 64 first. Probably Mario Kart because we had the steering wheel attachment and that’s irresistible to kids.

finally getting around to watching the last seasons of Skins (UK)

LibreOffice for replacing Microsoft Office

i prefer to buy in-store when i can because i like to be able to feel the textures of the product and to see the size of the thing in real life, which is hard to do from just an image. yeah sonetimes they put a ruler next to the photo but it’s not the same as being able to turn the object around in your hands, smell it, stretch it, test it, etc.

I’ve been using Waterfox as my Firefox backup because for some reason my Firefox always crashes within 15 minutes of use, and it’s always when I’m doing impirtant shit like banking or paying a bill. Which is what I typically use the ‘legit’ browsers for, and why I just use LibreWolf for daily browsing/fuckery. Using Waterfox feels like it calls less attention when on a government website as opposed to Librewolf.

Didn’t know it was bought by an ad company once upon a time, but this is also why I spread out my browsing. I also use Ghostery, and I have Brave (for checking how things show up in a Chromium environment when programming) but I don’t like Brave and rarely use it… Point is, gotta have multiple browsers either way.

corporate vs. free, then zoom into free and vs. bad instances. we still need something like TheBadSpace to help with safety and moderation.

Yeah that’s very true about RSS readers and FOSS options and the masses not being able to find them very well despite wanting it. Agreed it’s a good quotable conversation to have published. I am just frustrated that we so seldom see talk about what we can do about it, what comes next?

While I appreciate this article and those like it, too many of these types of articles don’t focus enough on the solution. I expected an article titled “how to save” to offer more solutions to what can be done, but that’s mostly left to a single paragraph about being more intentional and thoughtful and “sitting with your own feelings.”

If something isn’t done to actually change the consumerist culture and insidious marketing models and data collection practices, we’ll have another article like this in another few years, like we have had every few years. We were talking about filter bubbles when I was in high school over ten years ago. It’s only gotten worse.

Listen to independent radio stations. Usually can find a stream link online and plug into a music player app.

valid lol, sometimes gotta take a break for a while

^ this

they read books

On that note, here’s some other sites I’ve used to find new stuff:

• https://www.gnoosic.com/
• https://perchance.org/music-genre
• https://musicroamer.com/

YouTube adds related videos to the playlist. Have you really never used this site before?

But let’s be real, YouTube is not the source you wanna depend on given its owned by Google. The more you listen on there the more data you give them. It just has everything you need to rip from.
