You have to create an account to use it. So on the privacy point of view, it doesn’t compete with Lumo or Duck AI.

I just tried the Am I Unique site and I’m surprised by the amount of information the sites can have. Why do they know if I’m connected using 4G or 5G for example? Even using a privacy browser

They should stop trying

For banking, I use the website instead of the application. I have very few non-open-source applications left on my phone.

Il faudrait taxer les GAFAM

Use cash. A card payment allows your bank and the shop to track you.

I think that using gecko based browsers like Firefox is the best thing to do in the short term. But having no competition is a bad thing. So supporting new web engines, like Ladybird, is important too: https://github.com/LadybirdBrowser/ladybird

And there is still the 14 eyes agreement

It doesn’t interoperate well with FOSS software like K9 and Thunderbird.

Thank you for your comment. Since I deactivated Google Play services, I don’t get notifications on many apps. I didn’t know there were alternatives. Unfortunately, the app server must be compatible, but if I can have it at least for Telegram with this fork, it would be a good start. I’ll take time to compare the different alternatives and see if other push servers are compatible with more apps.

For what I understand, there are self hosted push servers, like NextPush that works on Nextcloud, and some that provide you a server, liked ntfy. For the latter, you have to check the privacy policy to see if it’s better than the default Google firebase server.

I vote for political parties that are explicitly against facial recognition when possible (always a small party that nobody knows). I use cash.

Like Windows, Ubuntu is installed by default on many computers. In my university, all the computers have a dual boot Ubuntu Windows.

Some like Phind or Perplexity cite their sources. And they give you directly the answer you’re looking for without having to search it in a mess of “subscribe to our newsletter”, “other articles that may interest you”, 3 paragraphs of “if you read this article, you will know what you want to know”, “special promotion for you”,…

Apple speaks like overprotective parents that don’t want their kids to leave home alone.

I think my first donation would be to GrapheneOS.

I installed Tubular today. It’s a fork of NewPipe with SponsorBlock. Is it the same thing or a different fork?

The multilingual support always predict words in all languages, even if you started a sentence in a specific one. And it will follow the typo rules of the first language in the list. For example, if the first language is French, it will add a space before the interrogation mark (French rule), even if you’re writing in English.

The library is closed source.

Phind had an open source model, but the web interface isn’t open source.

The argument that Debian doesn’t have the latest packages is only valid for stable repository, right?

Wouldn’t Debian with unstable or testing repo be better than Linux Mint?
