That’s true,
but hey, filtering and blocking out 90% of the unwanted/negative content is already way better then getting blasted by the full 100%! :D - Comment on How to improve your Lemmy experience 3 weeks ago:

The enhanced privacy, extension and about:config support are great features to have.

- Comment on Was it hunter2 or hunter3 6 months ago:
I won’t disclose where I store mine.
But I’d recommend to:
- Not backup your PW manager’s database + key file in the same location
(That would decrease security, x1 data breach would allow them to easily brute force your PW DB since they’ll have the key) - Not go with a PW manager that does not allow you to choose a location where you desire to backup to (Seen plenty of mainstream PW managers getting data breached by now, so going with a cloud, which is not solely used for PW managers, has an advantage imo, since they tend to be less targeted by hackers)
I’ve been happily using KeeWeb + Keepass2Android for years now:
- Not backup your PW manager’s database + key file in the same location

2 words for you: Password Manager
Get around to using one :P
I only remember my password to my PW manager, which additionally is encrypted with a key file to increase security.
The rest of my PWs are 128 character long random generated PWs, with capitals, numbers, special characters etc…
- Comment on WTF is up with the Tik Tok Ban? 6 months ago:
No matter the nationality,
spyware is not okay…Never has been, never will be.
It’s a form of oppression,
and an invasion upon your rights (to privacy). - Comment on WTF is up with the Tik Tok Ban? 6 months ago:
Is that shit finally banned?
Never signed up, but happy to see that brain rotting app go away.But I wouldn’t stop there, imo all GAFAM (Google, Amazon, Facebook, Apple, Microsoft) spyware should get the boot.

Eww, still using the official spyware?
Why not try out a privacy respecting frontend?

Figure out which politicians are behind this.
And throw them out since they are trying to take away your rights (to privacy).They are looking to apply mass surveillance upon you guys wrapped into a “For the kids safety” package as usual…

Oh I see.
Still thank you for teaching the next generation.
It’s under appreciated,
but oh so important work that you’re doing,
keep it up! :) - Comment on Why school didn't teach you about money | Answer In Progress 10 months ago:
Shouldn’t you report that to the head of school?
He should be able to know in which grade that topic should have been teached.
And then slap the corresponding teacher on the wrist for not doing their job correctly?
- Comment on Why school didn't teach you about money | Answer In Progress 10 months ago:
Sure you can’t prepare students for everything life will throw at them.
They don’t even teach basic economics, like what is deficit spending, what is fractional banking, and how it lead to hyper inflation every time throughout the history of humanity.
That’s what I call keeping people intentionally dumb about the topic.
- Comment on Why school didn't teach you about money | Answer In Progress 10 months ago:
I disagree with under funded,
all students need is 1 course on the matter,
1 teacher a few hours a week,
which is not crazy expensive.
