I set up a Raspberry Pi 3 with AdguardHome for a friend of mine, and told him to disconnect everything at home and try to watch anything on his phone, being the only device using his home’s internet.

He just sent me this, and now he’s ready to #degoogle 🤣🤣🤣

He says there were hundreds in less than 5 minutes.

      English is comes from the proto-Germanic family of languages. It was later when the Normans invaded the British Isles did the language begin to see Latin & French influences (which is one of the sources for English having terrible spelling rules). “de-” is of Latin etymology. “un-” is Germanic in origin. In many cases “un-” prefixes can be substituted. See: ungoogled-chromium.

        The complete disregard for “purity” is what made English flexible enough to become the defacto default common language of most of the world. Your pursuit of language purity is in fact very un-English.
