repost: Should r/Piracy continue protesting?
I think we have to keep up the protest. Personally, I find Lemmy much better than Reddit. All that's missing is for users to follow the movement, but that's not going to happen.

Piracy Is Coming Back, Baby!
Piracy has always offered a simpler and more user-friendly alternative to the official methods of consuming movies and series. And today, with tools like Jellyfin or Plex, everything is more accessible and at least centralized, so you don't need 15 platforms (you just need to know where to look to get the content). In the case of games, the presence of anti-tampering solutions like Denuvo is a significant concern. These solutions not only consume a considerable amount of system resources but also ironically make pirated versions more playable on less powerful platforms. Unless companies adopt a new mindset and approach, piracy is likely to continue thriving and evolving.

If you value privacy, ditch Chrome and switch to Firefox now
I have always despised Chrome, with Firefox being my preferred web browser. However, I still keep Vivaldi installed on my Linux system in case something requires Chromium for compatibility reasons.

Gaming on Linux
I made the switch to Linux a year ago, and I haven't looked back since. Of course, I still keep a dual boot for those pesky games that use Ring0 anticheat or are simply incompatible with Linux, like Fortnite or PUBG. But honestly, I don't find myself playing them as often anymore. My current actual go-to games include Dota 2, CS:GO, Elden Ring, Sea of Thieves, Diablo 4, Street Fighter 6, Dead Cells, and Isaac.

Warez: Do you pirate software or just use FOSS?
I use Archlinux BTW and I use FOSS software 99% of the time. (I need BurpSuite but rarely)
FOSS software just takes a long time to catch up with paid-for software in terms of functionality, but sooner or later becomes much better than its paid-for competitor, for example: Blender, OBS, Matrix (chat), etc.
From time to time, I pick up a few cracked games, but I also buy a lot of them. Sometimes I pay for games and end up buying the cracked version because DRM just gives me a big stutter in the games.
On my dual boot Windows 11 (MassGraveled) I do have StartAllBack (Homemade patched), Photoshop (M0nkrused), Ableton (R2ed) and an Office Pro Plus pack (OfficeTooled + KMSed) that I almost never use. If I start up on Windows, it's to amuse myself by either EDR bypassing, Reverse Engineering Games and Programs, doing some malware analysis, or dev some games cheats.
It must be 4/5 months since I've relaunched Windows because all the games I play run natively or with wine/proton on Linux with almost no loss (for some I've even gained in performance).

Oneplus are good with Rom but not highly maintained and I always have custom rom and root on all of my phone. I hate ads and I use all the method that exist to not have any ads in any of my app.

Google is about to make life more difficult for custom ROM fans
On my crdroid rom I use the Google official dialer and message app and they are pretty similar to the aosp one with more features. So I don't have any reason to go back to aosp apps maybe for privacy but, for privacy just throw the phone cause the system itself spying you.

Gaming on Linux
Reply in thread
I don't rely on special settings; instead, I ensure that I have the latest Mesa driver installed for my 7900XTX. Additionally, I optimize my gaming experience by using a set of launch settings that work well for most of my games, with minor adjustments made to the RADV_PERFTEST environment variable. These are the launch settings I use :
VK_ICD_FILENAMES=/usr/share/vulkan/icd.d/radeon_icd.i686.json:/usr/share/vulkan/icd.d/radeon_icd.x86_64.json AMD_VULKAN_ICD=RADV RADV_PERFTEST=sam,rt,gpl,nggc,aco gamemoderun %command%

Import Windows EFI in Linux systemd-boot
Reply in thread
I have no problems with my dualboot Windows 11 + Archlinux.
The only problem I encounter from time to time is that the Linux uefi entry disappears from the BIOS (sometimes after a kernel update) and I have to chroot from a live iso to type the command: bootctl install
Apart from this issue, everything works perfectly

What IPTV app do you use?
I use Tivimate on AndroidTV. I have iMplayer TV installed on my AndroidTV as well, but I don't use it frequently. However, I do appreciate having iMplayer installed on my phone.
special mention for these 3 applications which are not too bad either:
On Windows ProgDVB is really good (but I'm not a Windows user BTW) on Linux I use iptvnator
