None. I use HTTPS websites that protect my data.

Most modern ones it’s just commands you have to run. You can usually find an easy walk-though on the MrChromebox website. I haven’t seen one that required a jumper or anything in a LONG time.

All of these machines make for decent Linux laptops. I picked up an EOL Chromebook for $35 last year and installed Debian on it. Decent little machine. Not terribly fast but very useable.

I pay legally for:

• YouTube Premium
• Peacock
• Max
• Spotify
• Global Comics

I also have a monthly pass at a local theater chain and see new movies almost every week.

BUT I torrent everything else. Sorry, Universal, I’m not going to pay $24 to rent Fast X.

Installed on my laptop and it’s solid and actually feels very snappy. I’ll be getting it installed on my work PC this week.

All of them. Every distro can run any desktop, so all of them.

I’m a big gnome fan. It’s been my DE for years back with v2. System76 have done a lot of hard work and I welcome more competition in the desktop space but I’m sticking with gnome.

F-Droid is where I get 90% of the applications I need however banking and public transit apps are almost never open source. Once in a while I will buy a game or app that is developed does something that I can’t get from the community.

This is a bummer. I actually used Aurora to download my paid apps. I would buy on the website and login on my degoogled phone. Now degoogled users will have to just pirate apps they want. So much for supporting small developers.

That’s ultimately why I left the last time. That and the speed in which most instances load is terrible.

This has inspired me to start testing out Searx as my default again.
