was checking my old favourite posts and found this.
Currently on a very locked down version of firefox but also windows, though I’ve been experimenting with mint on an old laptop in prepration for a switchover.
It’s nice to have an old laptop to try things out. Good luck with the switch!
this is BSD erasure
I’m right between conservative and paranoid :) and want to stay there.
Haha good meme. I’m a tech conservative for sure!
I use Mint btw
This is the most accurate mem I’ve ever seen
“Has hundreds of messaging apps their friends won’t use.”
Got caught.
Hey, someone in the friend group has to test the apps ahead of time for when they all inevitably wake up and delete Discord, I can guide them to matrix or SimpleX! This is exactly how it will go right?
Guys… where’d you go?
This meme is so private that it doesn’t even show up on Mbin.
So what am I?
Waterfox ? Why ?
It’s on the privater side but runs well and support Firefox extensions.
Is it firefox with better privacy settings ?
It is its own browser, but it uses Gecko.
Between tech normie and tech conservative
…In need of a hug?
i use that voyager
Someone who even it broke couldn’t fix it because it’s an Apple.
This is me
“Uses MullvadVPN on lockdown mode” Literally me because seflhost with a router that doesn’t have NAT loopback support. Gotten tired of using workarounds that eventfully broke. lmao
hey i use librewolf and ironfox
hey i use arch btw:3
hey i used arch btw but now i’m sticking with linux mint debian edition

Please don’t misuse the term ‘paranoid’ like that. It’s a medical term for a serious condition and we really don’t need to start labeling ourselves like that, others already do that for us way too often.
Small-p paranoid. It’s been an adjective forever.
yes and important to note this applies to other terms as well. non-disordered people can experience temporary depression, anxiety and paranoia. the clinical terms are related but should not be conflated. paranoia can occur to anyone who is going through paranoia inducing circumstances, like marijuana, sleeplessness, or an authoritarian capitalistic hellscape.
(there are terms that have no aclinical parallel, though, like OCD, dissociative identity, or intrusive thoughts. we all should be careful not to misuse these terms.)
i do appreciate your sensitivity @Natanox@discuss.tchncs.de ! i think it’s just a bit misplaced. :)
Mmh, I see. This might be either a difference in language or culture then. 🤔 In german it would not just be very rude to call someone paranoid, it’s also definitely rhetorically linked to a state of mental illness (basically telling them they’re fucked in the head / crazy). At least where I’m coming from.
The FSF member does not use libreboot anymore (not entirely free on some boards for a while now). See GNU Boot!
GNU Boot is barely maintained. I would use Canoeboot instead, it follows the same philosophy GNU Boot does, and is way more up to date.
Alternate title: The Tech Burnout
Hell that’s me, 1:1!
Hey twin, lol
Currently at the crossroads from newborn paranoid into either this or tech paranoid, it’s so joever
This is 100% me
Yes. I like this way better than “tech conservative “
Well except for the Arch part. I’m not a masochist.
I live between the tech conservative and tech paranoid with a splash of distro hopping.
Same, but I stay on Arch btw.
I think we’re all in between conservative and newborn paranoid … for me, I love alpha/nightly, which LW doesn’t have, so FF it is. But I cope by telling myself that a properly configured FF is just as good as LW. And Signal is better than needing to use WhatsApp with family members.
Yeah, I guess so. The slippery slope is real though.
TempleOS is the one true legitimate operating system
