Yeah but I'm personally not going to use those browsers on mobile. FireFox, sometimes Brave, or just Vanadium on GrapheneOS. But good to know.

While true, mobile Firefox has it but chromium browsers do not. They do have the force mode but it destroys some sites. So not ideal. 🙂

A blog that advocates for the use of tri-state dark mode toggles ironically fails to implement this feature themselves. The article's default setting is a blindingly white background, contradicting its own argument.

Overall interesting read and I agree tri-state is nice but I couldn't get past this.

That's a good starter list. However it should be noted that all the Simple apps should be avoided now and instead people should use the forked versions from Fossify.

As someone else started it's worth noting that Mullvad themselves did not donate to anything. I understand people's argument that money to Mullvad goes to the founder and thus goes to the people they donate to and that was people's argument for Proton as well. So do what you will as it's everyone's personal preference.

That's why lists like these, while useful for those who are just looking into privacy, deGoogle, etc. to first learn of projects and services, are almost always lacking nuance without text or all the major alternatives where then people can choose based on their beliefs. 🙂

Note: I understand this is one person's list and not a general list but just stating my thoughts on the matter as a whole.

Phone app? Yes you have to use their own app. On a computer besides the browser version you can use Thunderbird and other applications if you download ProtonBridge.

AltTab: Windows alt-tab on macOS

Rectangle: Keyboard based window management.

Linear Mouse: Per-device settings for Mouse, Track Pad, etc. Things like pointer super, scroll direction, and mouse acceleration.

Probably a Takahē in New Zealand but in captivity.

Now that Steam is all in on the Steam Deck and SteamOS there is much better support for games on Linux. See ProtonDB.

Also, the Linux distro Pop!_OS has worked quite well for me for games. I use the NVIDIA version which bundles NVIDIA's propietary library blobs which also helps with the game compatibility.

But all in all I agree with you that even with all of this it is not as smooth as just click and play on Windows. 🙂 Plus some games just don't work on Linux at all so there's that. Lol.

Thank you! I didn't know they also made an app that does this. For anyone looking for the link it's the following: https://grayjay.app/

I'd also recommend looking into their other projects such as their Android voice input app: https://voiceinput.futo.org/

I've been using GrapheneOS on my phones since the Pixel 3 and I have not had this issue when using Verizon. For the other person maybe it was a different carrier? Or some issue a while ago with that carrier and GrapheneOS.

Species from 1995. Parents and their friends were watching it and told us to not come in because it was too scary.

I thought they were bullshitting young me...I was wrong. Lol. Had wonderful nightmares for a while.

I thought about using Amazfit products but all the new ones require Huami/Xiaomi server pairing. How was that process?

It's very annoying when people do this. Here's a link to the archived version: https://archive.ph/w1XBt

Did you read all three books? Got real WTF in book 2 and 3.

Works for me on Verizon and has for 5+ years. Google Fi even works as I've tried that with a different phone on GrapheneOS.
