Just disable the ads, crypto and telemetry and suddenly none of those things are a problem anymore, just like Firefox.

When T9 was all we had, we got real good at it.
No software updates mean they have to get it right the first time, which they always seemed to manage.
I've come to the realization that the phone I want is a Nokia 3310 "brick".
- Infinite battery life
- compact size
- headphone jack
- indestructible
- no spyware
- no social media
- T9 texting
- no software updates
- Snake
- Brick Breaker
I pretty much just assume "Free To Play" games are full of microtransactions, is that wrong?
E: to be clear, I don't think microtransactions are an inherently bad thing. In fact, if people want to make games where other people with more money front the costs of development, I'm all about it.
What I hate is being reminded every 5 minutes that it has garbage skins that I can pay IRL money for.
The options on Android aren’t much better
Literally every one of them is better, because none of them are running iOS. That's my subjective opinion.
unless you go for some obscure manufacturer who won’t support the phone with updates 1 year after its life cycle.
Samsung and Google both support devices for 5 years now. Doesn't matter how long Apple "supports" the software because they don't support the hardware.
Don't buy anything except a yurt to live on unclaimed federal land. Because these companies are all shit.
Why not both?
I think in reality the Chrome web browser is a huge threat to Internet freedom and should be a top priority.
Same. I use it to chat with my parents exclusively, who are 68 and 75.
It only collects what Matrix needs to function.
It's 1000x better than Meta so I'm happy to use it for those services.
I chose Proton Pass so I could skip out on another subscription for "equal or better alternatives"
This is a very very old story.
Here's the answer you'll get from Proton:
Cramming more people onto the same project doesn't make it get done any faster.
That being said, I am also sorely disappointed with the support for Linux. You would think a company that touts privacy and security would have good support for the most private and secure OS.
