Honestly, it doesn’t matter, even if every single 3rd party voter went for Harris, Trump still wins

Your phone is not listening to you. https://www.bbc.com/news/technology-49585682

Listening to conversations and turning that into interests that can be advertised against is by far the least efficient method they could use. You can get just as good data through normal tracking.

This is just an example of a frequency illusion where you notice stuff because you’re looking for it. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frequency_illusion

Are these emails you need to memorize? Diceware would work.

Otherwise I’d just use something like simplelogin and just have it automatically generate one. Then just save it in your password manager.

Honestly, they just shouldn’t have added support. GNOMEs been causing problems for basically everyone else for a long time. If they want to do their own thing, that’s fine, but we shouldn’t but everyone else shouldn’t have to do extra work to accommodate them.

Eh, there’s a completely independent reimplementation of the server, so I’d be surprised if the same doesn’t happen for the apps if there’s a real issue that comes up

People learn about different things at different times. If we care about promoting privacy we should be accomodating and not hostile about that.

In addition to everythong everyone has said, one major thing that people often don’t think about privacy is how it relates to enshittification.

Modern software services try to optimize everything to make as much money as possible. Everything is a/b tested, and whatever increases some arbitrary metric is what gets released.

They do this by tracking a ton of metrics about how you interact with everything. I know where I work we collect data about every time you click on anything, how long you hover over buttons, etc.

Yeah, I’ve been spoiled because most of the heavier workloads I do is all programming related and Linux tends to be better there.

I have had issues with Autodesk products, but I’m able to get 99% of what I need with freecad.
