It's not just paranoid, it's totally toxic and aggressive. He attacked and verbally abused dozen of different project for naive reasons, and spread FUD and slanders about other developers and projects

Litterally one of the most famous tech guy on the web and one of the most influential voice of the "repair yourself" movement, on the internet for years

Bluetooth give a lot more information about your surrounding (what device your phone detect or connect, for how much time, distance from objects, etc.), not only from your phone alone, but from other people phones who have bluetooth on and e.g. never disable any tracking from google services too. And the Mac address for bluetooth never change, so any device (and tracking company) will know you is forever you. Bluetooth is a privacy nightmare, and this is totally a dark pattern. People not knowing what they're doing is of course a thing, but it seems just a usual bad practice by google, who like to manipulate especially not tech-savvy people

I really don't understand all those posts: I use nginx, apparmor, partially even modsecurity, I use collabora office official debian package, face recognition, email, update regularly (waiting for major upgrades for every app I use to be updated), etc. and literally never had a problem in the last 5 years except for my own experiment. True, only 5 people use my instance, but Nextcloud is rock solid for me

Ublock is awesome, but it can't block first party from analyze, sell and use your data for anything out of your control. Use a fake account, a VPN and/or tor browser to isolate your identities. Stopping ads isn't enough to stop exploitation of your data

You can set gestures on spacebar to delete whole word. This is why I say anysoft need a lot of time, because probably your needs are already fulfilled, but find the option is an ordeal

Yes, it is possible, but it's hard to find the option. Here an answer on GitHub https://github.com/AnySoftKeyboard/AnySoftKeyboard/issues/1524

AnySoftKeyboard, I use it and love it, but it need a lot of time to be configured exactly like you want

I don't understand the downvotes. I do not concur with the end for a lot of reasons, but this is a legitimate answer to the comment before
