Thank goodness! I didn't want to always be bugging others because of their red warnings.

Security by design is so much better and should have been there from the start TBH

JavaScript is a normal requirement for modern web browsers?

Just use Briar or SimpleX instead of this clowns' service with no perfect forward secrecy

TBH I don't think I will ever even consider using Cosmic since they chose to do their own thing theme and ecosystem wise. Like on Gnome I have a massive ecosystem and GTK4, so that blends. On KDE I have a massive ecosystem and QT, so that blends. On Cinnamon I have a moderately sized ecosystem and GTK3, so that blends.

My Cosmic desktop would just be incoherent mess. Not only looks wise, but also in terms of having an experienced dev team and mature software. Maybe in five years I might consider it production ready and for actual use on my workstation, until then, I will just keep rolling my eyes at the literal "we remade everything in Rust" meme.

Also I don't feel comfortable using software from a company that has shows extremely shitty behaviour towards upstream in the past.

The EU only cares about blocking the private sector from getting their citizen's data. They actively harm privacy when it's about government access

Still rocking a GTX 1070 and I plan on using my Graphene OS Pixel 8 Pro till 2030 (only bought it (used ofc) bc my Huawei Mate 20 Pro died on me in October last year 😔)

I can recommend Molly for Signal and Mercurygram for Telegram. Both support UnifiedPush too!

I used to use Simple Gallery and later Fossify Gallery. Now that I have a device new enough for Accrescent to work on it I discovered Aves Gallery Libre.

It's much nicer and polished in many ways but I do miss some features sometimes

It has no large community nor an organization behind it.
Leading to a lot of trouble for me personally, it's the 2nd month now (after multiple updates) that my Gnome wayland desktop hasn't been working properly at all (like xwayland programmes displaying as a blank transparency, me not being able to start certain ones) and switching to X11 works but it's buggy af and sometimes freezes for a few second

I suspect that it has been a problem with the nvidia driver after having updated it and I have never had those problems before

Don't get me wrong Glorious Eggroll is doing good work but qa (due to size) leaves smth do be desired

I regret ever having switched to the amateur distro that is Nobara bc I was too lazy to set up Feodra a 2nd time after the Grub fiasco Arch (and thus my daily driver back then EndeavourOS) had lol

Will switch the second OpenSuSe Slowroll becomes stable

Google is a tech giant, which abuses peoples privacy with every click

Their phones enable users to (at least partially) escape that bs

that's what I found to be ironic
