Yes. And I’m using Tasker to automatically switch the Android setting to use Private DNS when not connected to my Wifi SSID. That way I have never used up the free usage of 300,000 queries.

Pi-Hole for home Wifi, Guest Wifi for IoT devices. For Desktop PC I use Linux, hardened Firefox, uBlock Origin extension. For the Phone I use NextDNS, work Profile for IoT apps, and F-Droid for some apps.

I’ve never used it but it is my understanding that it pretty much the same thing with more functionality.

The question doesn’t make sense. They are projects with different purposes. and what kind of potential you are asking? popularity, ease of use, mass market, etc?

its the function called Antennas.

Mr/s. financial expert, how much is way down? How does the cost vs revenue compared? Is it a net positive or negative. I’ll wait for you to put 2 and 2 together to see if I celebrate or not yet.

Can someone explain me [ X country] obsession with [ X celebration] and similar [location] rituals? Why do different cultures have their respective rituals? Why do some people prioritize certain values and act on them? Is having more reasons to celebrate life a bad or good thing?

That post is pure hysteria. First no one knows when Gabe is going to die, and even if he live very long he may step down due to old age still.

• also worrying so much about something that may happen 14 years later according to op is unnecessary and distorted thinking.
• why assume there is going to be a power vacuum? can’t he and his leadership make pans of succession?
• then believing a whole made-up story going down the rabbit hole of the worst case scenario is again unnecessary and distorted thinking. Is okay to think of worst case scenarios but to take them as if they were real is gifting ourselves anxiety for free.
• in any case, the mental exercise of thinking of some undesirable possibilities allow us to take precautions and prepare to the extend that is appropriate and reachable. Which would be the most efficient behavior that thwarts “actual fear” as OP writes it.

By that logic, every photo taken by a Samsung smartphone is fake.

IMO Friendica feels like beta software or outdated with no signs of improvement. Similar to how LibreOffice used to be for years. The layout is just not streamlined enough. It’s unnecessary complicated and the UI looks outdated on all themes.

If you cannot read it due to paywall search for an extension/add-on called Bypass Paywalls Clean.

What do you mean? Do you believe China is not a Dictatorship? That they do not heavily regulate the news both out and in. Are you even aware China has a “Great Firewall” to filter dissent speech? I like to read Light Novels from Japaneses, Korean and Chinese authors. From the many I’ve read, I encountered 3 really good novels that are sadly on “Hiatus”. Guess from where and why? If they can be this petty with fictional LNs they are capable of everything. I really don’t understand how will anyone defend China’s government unless you are a Chinese government shill, or are oblivious to world news.

• don’t use any screen an hour prior to going to bed.
• make sure you’re comfortable (temperature, light, sounds, mattress)
• every night make a list on paper of all the things that worries you both consciously and subconsciously. Don’t know what are your subconscious worries? Speak with a therapist. Deal with whatever thing you need to do before bed, if nothing urgent, then declare to your mind that you will work on them the next day or in the future since your only job right then is to sleep.

Their government is a dictatorship and want to keep it like that. Thus they block any “dangerous” ideas. This is of course an oversimplification but you get the jest of it.

I don’t think there is one. What I do is use the website on Firefox wth uBlock Origin, and Decentraleyes add-ons.

I use paid Protonmail but never the bridge app since I have no need for it. It make sense for business to hide some features behind a paywall. Almost all do. The reason they don’t need it for Android is because they already offer an app for it. That’s not the case for Desktop. Bridging 😉 to your next point of the other protocols; In tech you often can’t have all 3 - security, privacy, convenience, often 2 of 3. They created a service focused on privacy and security resulting convenience left behind in third place. That’s their business model, that’s what you get and the reason why you use them. If its too inconvenient then their service is probably not for you. They deemed those “established protocols” not compatible with their vision so they needed a workaround to keep your stuff secure and private. Otherwise whats the point if they are going to have such a blatant weak point of failure. If not you then many others will be complaining of the vulnerability that undue the whole point of using their services.

What are the shortcomings of the Proton Mail Bridge app?

According to my search Friendica is the best one for family/groups according to the interactions features compared to the other ones. But the downside/irony is that it can be less user friendly than the others ones IMO. Check for yourself to help you decide. Diaspora is a close second place.
