FreeTube does and also Newpipe.
Why are these companies the worst? It’s a honest question since I actually don’t know much about them.
:) Haha, I have had so many bad experiences with shitty managers so it’s kind of a joke alias.
I’m never closing mine as long as it has active users. Please come if it’s a good location for you - western USA. Performance and uptime is really good but you will have some network latency if you are on the other side of the world.
Kagi is really, really good.
You can be honest in this society if you are exactly average and have no opinions others would dislike. :)
Very cool, the more the better :)
Edit: Not possible to install yet for me.
Yeah I honestly liked this text too.
No it was part of the request actually :)
America is almost the last country in the world that doesn’t have free healthcare, except for Africa.

Nvidia is bad and also Ubuntu is using a very old kernel.
I think you should try installing Pop OS instead.
It was a while ago… Not sure when. But I remember the news about it. :)
Meta and Twitter are social media companies. They have access to peoples tweets. It’s similar to having access to these messages you and me are typing, except many people use their own names there.
It’s not too bad privacy wise, just social messages.
Google on the other hand has the private searches of billions of people. Everything you put into a search engine because you are worried, afraid, sick, or curious about something.
Google records all this private activity and saves it under your personal profile, and then uses cookies to track every web site you are visiting on the web (using not only Google search but Google analytics cookies that exists on almost every website).
They also combine this data with whatever you are doing on your android phone, or what places you go to using Google maps, or what video meetings you are having with Google meets, what emails you have in Google Mail, what video you watch on YouTube, what calendar events you are having with Google calendar… And so on.
Then they feed all this data into algorithms designed to figure out what you are likely to do next. They sell this data to advertisers so they can target you with ads. They also send this data to American agencies like nsa to be stored and analyzed.
There is a giant difference here between Google and the other companies you mentioned. Google is literally watching moments from people’s entire lives, while the others only see your social media messages.
This is why Google is completely absurdly in it’s own class of anti-privacy. No other company has this amount of data about people’s every moment awake.
Now they use their dominant position to try and take over the entire web, so it’s not possible to escape them anymore using a different browser, blocking cookies and tracking, or using another search engine.
If everyone is forced to use their browser, we have lost everything good about the web.
They should be treated like the cancer to a free web they really are.
Darth Vader wants to protect children… Right.
You don’t have to do the keyring thing manually anymore, pacman takes care of it. :)
Lol :)
