Can’t you re-use those emails? I use random email aliases almost everywhere, and I store them in bitwarden.

iirc Windows Defender does a decent job. However, if you are a JavaScript developer, try to add node_modules to the exceptions, unless you don’t care much about the performance hit.

I personally have stopped running antivirus on Windows a couple years ago. Since I run most, if not all, untrusted software in VMs, I didn’t see the point of wasting performance. On the host, I only run Firefox and Steam/Epic games.

I then moved to Linux and I have 2 GPUs; one for the host and one for VMs with games. But that’s probably a different story.

I tried using Debian 12 instead of Arch. I ended up installing my apps with the Nix package manager. Debian provides Firefox ESR and an old version of NeoVim. I didn’t want to add more repositories to apt, as I have had some bad experiences in the past with conflicts in backports packages.

Java has multiplayer as well, and not all servers allow cracked Minecraft. There are “online” servers (that require you to buy the game) and “offline” servers (that allow everyone).

There are big differences between Snaps and Flatpaks.

I don’t agree that it made any sense to do that. If they wanted to containerize apps, there has been an open source solution to that for years; Flatpak.

ain’t nobody got time for that

As an app maintainer, that wants to support Ubuntu, why would I prefer to deploy a snap server, instead of publishing deb files, or creating a Flatpak?

I have Signal and microG with push notifications. Signal still uses websocket on my device. So, I guess it would be fine without microG push.
