Yeah its like those sports headlines where they try vibe you up for some trash talk

“Player A had a perfectly blunt statement about Player B”

Only to read & find out they said Player B was great, such drama lol

All just rage bait everywhere, AI or human that’s the clicks plan

I use both same products, just manually copy to phone periodic as my vault is pretty static

Made the move from bitwarden not that long ago, actually a bit before their price increase (just timing not because of it). Nothing bad about BW to say, it worked great for me for years.

My motivation was wanting my password manager fully offline.

Keepass are fantastic programs, and actually now more pleased with my move after seeing some negative moves from BW I needn’t be concerned with

+1 for Keepass!

The e/os Advanced Privacy feature is very nice, great way to see which apps have tracker whilst blocking them. Same as running DNS filters but built in experience, easy to view

In itself LOS is fantastic but needs be combined with something like reThinkDNS or another DNS filtering option

Rethink on LOS is fantastic, in particular if you can do the whitelist method - block everything by default, and permit only that which you approve. Takes some time & effort but great control is the reward

I prefer layers, example LOS w/rethink DNS all going thru Control D or NextDNS with Hagezi lists enabled

Overkill? Perhaps , but I love the reporting , helps in learning what’s going on, and apps/sites to be avoided

Posteo has been fantastic for me, but no bring your own domain as some have mentioned a deal breaker if that’s your bag

Super cheap, unsure on any political stances but they embrace being green / sustainable so that’s usually a give away :)

Use it with betterbird and Thunderbird android just works great

Windscribe has Anonymous Account (Hashed Login)

Fairphone should focus on helping the Linux options move along, no need waste resources on GOS, just another android ROM

Long term android should die off in place of Linux but its a long road

Have UT running on a Nord phone, they have made good strides over the years, appreciate their dedication

Blg fan of fedora atomic Cosmic been my daily for awhile but ran into a show stopper bug (for me) with release 44

So as wait on that resolve thought I’d try KDE again, and it just felt so busy & cluttered lol

Back to Silverblue with few tweaks and it feels just like home. Simple, beautiful, elegant & snappy

Gnome is fantastic indeed, no hurry to leave

We each have our personal zen, options are good

Librewolf has done a great job and has a strong stance on disabling/removing AI pieces

But yeah, it’s just sad to always be fighting against the tide

Love my Fedora Atomic Cosmic, but absolutely we all be watching to see where they go, and if needed will play the distro-hop game in attempt to stay in the AI free zone
