sadly for me money is that tight right now, so if I can donate via ad revenue I definitely would (or better yet donating my time instead)

I'd seriously love to use Ecosia but that stops me from doing so

if you never clear your cookies.

They allow you to use a link instead for saving settings, which can also be used to set as your default search engine

Have you seen Discord's UI?

it really sucks tho, because most chromium forks still force you to use a google account in order to sync, and thats if they don't strip google entirely. there's brave, but I haven't had the best of experiences with that browser.

I can still self host something like floccus to "sync" bookmarks, and use kde connect to send browser tabs from one device to another, but I still wish it was as convenient as firefox; which iirc, let's you self host their sync service

Not sure if this will help, but find my device on F-Droid is awesome. You can use generic SMS and send "fmd locate" or you can use third party apps such as signal. This makes it so it'll only trigger whenever you receive that text message rather it running 24/7

It allows you to setup a trusted set of contacts who can then send you a text message "fmd locate", and it'll reply with an openstreetmaps link showing where you are. It's not real time tho

And you can disable it simply by turning off your location

The Apex Legends hacking situation was unrelated to the anti-cheat despite initial reports

you're right, thanks for the clarification! https://inv.tux.pizza/watch?v=lzW4SDm0yWM

Apex Legends and Genshin Impact being a good example of this.

if I respect the artist and their work and they give me the option to, I almost always do. (even if I still use the pirated version for convenience). they almost always have a CD available on their website and they look pretty cool together displayed on a shelf

I almost never purchase a piece of media if they only allow me to buy a license for it, so I have a lot of respect for the people who give me the option to actually pay for it and own it and will support them for that
