You can never truly know about almost any online service, you kinda just have to take their word for it, do some research, and pick the option that best matches both the performance and philosophy you're looking for.

That would require the VPN service to keep track of users' usage and be able to match traffic to user, which most (or most of the big ones at least) very specifically, very on purpose, explicitly say they don't do, which would be really bad for them if it turned out to be false.

To "link" other devices you have to scan a qr from your phone, so it's certainly possible that during that process the devices connect and share the key, and the servers don't have it.

Or the servers could have it. Idk, it's closed source, that's the problem at hand.

Just

git add . && git commit -m "sorry theres a fire" && git push -u origin feature/fire

And run out. It will eventually finish pushing. Or not.

Same. Been wanting to learn some new frameworks and stuff, but I'm incapable of learning without using it on a real use-case project I actually need.

And I've been all out of ideas on that front for a while.

Some things just aren't good enough yet.

Like VR compatibility and performance, particularly with nvidia and quest headsets.

Otherwise yeah, 99% of my games would run perfectly fine.

Subjectively, it might be better for you. Sure.

It's objectively better, functionally, than Google. Results tend to be better, more accurate, less ad-riddled, and you're able to manually boost or block links to improve your own results.

All phones I've ever owned did that. The radio app would tell you to plug your earphones.

NVME ssd in a carry usb adapter. It's as reliable as a regular ssd, but it's way more portable and durable than commercial external hdds. A little bigger than usb flash drives but worth the tradeoff. Wouldn't use it as the only backup place for a password dB file but for carrying around its pretty good.
