If you like Griffith, I don't wanna be your friend

The first two are from berserk, the third is from monster. The first one is a mark for sacrifice, the other two are the perfect psychopath archetype. I (and someone else here) think the mark doesn't fit because it has a great message about strugging and fighting the greater powers of the world.

We need a list of products we can buy without worrying about telemetry or advertising.

Maybe it would also be good to include software options into this?

Like browsers (librewolf, hardend firefox, etc.)

Browsers on mobile

Search engines (ddg, kagi, ...)

email providers (proton, tuta, ...)

Vpns (proton, ivpn, airvpn, ...)

Messanger (signal, ...)

Or things like FreeTube to reduce telemetry and ads from youtube

And alternatives such as lemmy for reddit, mastodon for twitter

It will bloat this post quite a bit, and they are more easily accessable to find, but it's nice to gather all the materials needed in one place maybe?

Looking for a new to-do and list maker

I stuck with superproductivity. It supperts boards (you can configure your own board, but kanban and eisenhower are build in i think (i dont use that feature) i like how they handle projects and task storage. They have a philosophy of not adding task from a project to the daily clutter, you chose yourself. If helps to not feel overwhelmed and it can store tasks.

Its not that good for lists of things imo, its better for for timetracking. But you can create a task and easily do subtasks and use it as a list. Also I think it is installable via docker but I don't know, I havent used docker, but a search gave some results.

Huh I Didn't say that and didn't notice you could read it like that. I meant I dont need to know more. I know a reference and that reference has a tragic backstory to it and I don't want to traumatize myself by knowing the actual backstory. Thank you for telling me

I am using Babbel and Memrise to learn French

Or just use Anki, youtube (videos in target language) and free online resources and a good novel and a bit of discipline and effort.

First of, there are a ton of great language learning videos on youtube geared for each specific language, showing their journey and tools. Most boil down to these mentioned above

There are alot of great free anki decks for vocabulary when you are too lazy to prepare them yourself. I use one for japanese made from anime lines, you learn phrases said in actual media which is nice, sometimes there are some grammar rules explained if needed. I'd suggest to make an effort yourself and watch media, take a word or sentence, cut it out with some software to a short soundfile, add it to anki., sync to your phone. The extra effort stage of finding and translating a line is worth alot. Then you have the spaced repitition from anki. But as I said, just use a premade deck instead if you are too lazy for the software setup.
