Which one are you?
Oh nice try government, I won’t fingerprint myself in a public comment like some kind of sucker 😏
So tech paranoid then, got it /s
Hah, too late. You’re already being linguistically fingerprinted by your grammar and word choice. Only option now is to not comment on public forums anymore I guess. 😩
Unless you’re behind like seven proxies, you’re already fuckered.
has hundreds of private messaging applications that their friends won’t use
This hurts
Friends?
Hits too close to home
Friends?
Can relate. Signal is luckily mainstream enough to bring some people in after some convincing.
@Killercat103 @treadful I also do the same. But Siganl devs are kinda weird.
Tech conservative for the most part. I prefer FOSS, but I’m fine with using some propietary software
This is marvelous
—Tech Conservative
Between conservative and newborn paranoid. I use Fedora and Firefox, but (microg) LineageOS and F-Droid on my phone. Also I don’t know what half of those apps are but I’d like to use matrix.
I’ve wanted to meet FSF member in real life for a long time. No luck so far.
As for Stallman, I find it sad that he has been right about many things. I will not do what he does but I appreciate the fact that someone like him exists and still fights for what he believes in.
Tech conservative, although I have to admit that I like MacOS a lot. When it comes to Linux, I use and love Debian
Somewhere between Tech Conservative and FSF Member.
I don’t care about Stallman as a person. I care about being able to use the software I like and not get spied on, and the FSF actively works to ensure I can do that, so even if trying to use all FSF-approved software isn’t practical now they’re still helping to make things better. They are an important counterbalance to the bullshit.
Between Tech Conservative and The newborn paranoid
Same.
same
I’m probably a tech conservative. I prefer FOSS, but will use proprietary software if I absolutely have to. Also I use arch btw
I was newborn paranoid at one point, and am starting to shift back to tech conservative
“Wants to become a full paranoid but fears the slippery slope.”
I feel personally attacked yet fully approve this characterization.
I’m in the same boat. I feel like going any further than Newborn Paranoid and you start sacrificing so much of your time, money and convenience it’s not worth it anymore.
What’s the problem with e-books? Even more the ones you download into your computer and open with okular or some emacs e-pub mode?
(Anyway, I don’t know what half of those icons are.)
Yeah, it’s a meme, best not to overthink it, it does only make a limited amount of sense lol
Tech conservative and will probably stay here for life. I really hate what the big tech corps are doing but feel like this is a sustainable level not just for me but for the general user. This is what we should have built out as the standard in the first place but money sure does ruin things fast and now we have a world controlled by Microsoft and monitored by Google
