Ok, I heard about their app store being closed, but I thought it was for all devices, not non-amazon devices. Thanks 👍

Yeah, I’d probably let go of the app and just change the settings, saves space.

Furthermore, I saw you have OpenVPN for Android. I’ve never heard of that app tbh, so it makes me wary. If you need a free, open-source, and audited VPN from the play store, then I’d stick with Proton. If you can pay money, then Mullvad.

Yeah, saw that on another comment. Then just stick with plain Firefox and download the uBlock extension. Seriously, ditch Brave. It doesn’t do anything FF with some settings turned on can’t do.

Unrelated note: I see you have NextDNS as an app. You can’t just change the DNS settings on your phone? Is that blocked by parental control?

Well, whenever you get the chance to use developer options, you can try Permission ManagerX instead. Does the same think Shizuku does but isn’t outdated and can be downloaded from the Google Play, Fdroid, and the repository (and Amazon app store??? If that’s still alive???).

Can verify, it’s super easy to do and I nuked the Gmail app from my phone afterwards.

Try IronFox or Fennec (Firefox forks), both are privacy focused and aren’t bad like Brave.

GrapheneOS has shown FF does have some security issues, so if you prefer Chromium then use either Vanadium (GrapheneOS only) or Cromite.

For desktop I do use Librewolf and Ungoogled Chromium if a website refuses to work on Firefox.

Man, I tried so hard to understand what the joke was before I realized it was just transphobia/queerphobia

I can’t find the funny, where funny? :(

I’m pretty sure they’re talking about catching pubic lice (genital crabs) either due to sleeping around, or the Myrtle Beach area being kind of shady.

I went there with my family when I was a kid, and yeah… Our hotel was fine but the place was giving old, and I’ll never forget this mom who let her kids play in a nasty ass abandoned jacuzzi pool that was off-colored and had cigarette butts in it…

Forgive me for being born after the 90s y’all, but sometimes it’s nice to have a reboot. Well. I could care less about movie/TV show reboots since so many places show the originals or you could pirate, but when it comes to games, I appreciate being able to enjoy the same games my mom did but with slightly better graphics and on a console we own/PC. And yes, I could pirate the originals, but sometimes it’s nice to play it as it was intended, especially for hand held games.

Yes reboots can be lazy and uninspired, and simply for money purposes, but other times it’s nice to see something come back to life and get a second chance. There’s so much stuff I wouldn’t have known about or enjoyed if it wasn’t for reboots.

Mother nature is an amazing comedian

If you self host it on your local network, who gives a fuck about security outside of physical security and encryption? You won’t have to worry about hackers since it’s not connected to the internet.

Nah, the past was filled with peasants dying of infections and dysentery. The future will just be the Pony Express crew from Mouthwashing. Honestly, I don’t even know what member I’d choose to be since they all went out horrifically.

Watched a video before of kids from Whales doing an exchange with Korean students, and they were miserable. Like you said, they were getting back home late from clubs and cram tutoring at like 10pm, and would then get up for school around 6am or so.

This is just an unfortunately common thing in Asian countries, getting into the best schools is treated like a life-or-death thing for many.

Appleius (+ donut and orange, but the apple was the final thing) from last night… as a pseudo dinner

If I actually would eat today it would’ve been Empanadius, but I’m still in bed…

Well, people like to say “check their hard drives” when referring to pedos, so the word itself isn’t lost yet. But there might be some other Gen Z’s who don’t actually know what that is considering we were raised with Chromebooks…

Okay, but at least cat cares about you and wants to meet your needs. What does an unsolicited dick pic do for anybody?

Dick pic is selfish, kitty is not

Tea has caffeine tho?

Maybe get used? That way you don’t support Google and it doesn’t cost too much. Not sure how much mine cost, I got it as a gift from my mother who’s pretty good about finding sales for things, although it was brand-new.

If not that then people seem to see CalyxOS as a decent alternative.

I know I can’t judge very much with my post history, but… OP, are you good? You’ve got a lot of horny posting (the asklemmy NSFW posts) and boomer-esque “women ☕” posts going on.

Sorry, I have dummy noob moments 😔

I use KDE Plasma
