True! I was shocked looking at my pihole logs and see how much Firefox phones home for that crap the other day.

For example: Firefox today on my pihole.

It does the canvas anti fingerprinting with it's letterbox style display... Is strict with cross site cookie denial. A few more differences. Check out mulls site. I found it pretty detailed in its explanations

I tried osmand~ from f droid (which is essentially the paid version) and for browsing it works great. Navigation was pretty bad however. I had a lot of issue where when I click to find a route to an address it would get stuck and never route. Also in my testing, it would take you some pretty bizarre routes where I couldn't trust it. I am unfortunately back to Google maps that I dowloaded through the aurorastore using as anonymously as I can without any Google account on my device.

Spotify is nearing the cut point for me. Subbed since 2011. The UI is getting worse...

I'm all for this protection but for the sake of argument isn't use of the service consent to begin with? Or is that the American argument around these types of regulation?

I'm a pihole, vpn, adblock and invidious user ftr.. 😂

Neither. It's a sorta scummy experience overall with the few actors I've paid the money for. At least that's my experience. If they offer an selfie in the autograph line. That's probably the best experience out of the paid options...

For the official photos. Your rushed through. Actor or whoever doesn't care your there. Your meeting them for like 30 seconds. Sorta feel like your being taken for your money. ( no way?!?)Actor might say hi how are you? And then your out with an awkward photo.

My best experiences was interacting acting with them naturally by mere chance outside of the con. Or once I waited just for a free autograph with Matt Mercer and that was 200% worth it.

I work so much more efficiently at home. I'm mostly remote. Come in a couple days a month. The days I go in are trying to zone out all the office distractions. Also I have to use a hotel docking station setup that I will always have an problem with at least something about it. A sizeable portion of my day is just getting setup and into a work state. I work in software development with cloud platforms. Going into the office I know I'm gonna get fuck all done. Also the Internet is way worse on site.

However there is a few people on my team that do fuck all everyday. I keep hearing rumors that they are gonna make us come back. It's frustrating because you know the few ones that are taking advantage are gonna be an easy excuse for management to call us in.

Same. Haven't seen this yet. Not using an account. Using freetube on desktop, clipious on Android. Sometimes the web version with ublock default. Have a pi-hole but it hasn't blocked a YouTube ad since 2018 lol
