You mean games that arent available in steam at all, vor those which you haven’t bought there? I found the easiest workaround for me was to simply add the games to my steam library and to launch it from there. Then I don’t have to worry about what proton version I should use or whatnot.

I can also recommend Libretube or Clipious for Android

poor elephant 🥺

What speaks against torrents with mullvad?

They need something to become sustainable. They’ve been making losses for years. But thata definetly not the way. Other ways would be to lock some future features behind paywalls, and / or to increase their cut of the sales price per unit sold in the future.

Vor the site you have visited and has some hidden SEO spam related to its topic.

Some OSes allow per app firewall, so the easiest way would be to disable network connection for that app in the android settings.

Have you tried using exclusive terms with quotation marks? Like “how to get rich fast” That should only feature sites with exactly that search term. Additionally you could link words with + between them i think.

I also enjoy that one, but I found out, that the file transfer doesn’t work on my university network.

Just as a tip: you can run every Add-on on Firefox nightly. You can add your own add-on collection and select from that. You have to go into dev mode though. Yo do taht by tapping the Firefox logo in the about section like 5-10 times. You have to have a Firefox account though. Or you could use my fairly small add-on list:

Username: 16700479 Name of the list: cookies

The google services are preinstalled they’ll send data nonetheless

I recommend you to root your phone. With a rooted device you can debloat your phone very easily with UAD (universal Android debloater) for example. Delete any Google related app and of course any diagnostic app from OnePlus. After you deleted Googles apps including gms (!) You can install microG via an magisk module named microG installer for magisk. You don’t need the Playstore, use Aurora instead. But first search on Fdroid if there is an opensource alternative for what you’re looking for.

All of this might take an evening, but after it, you have peace of mind. Note that for root, you’ll have to unlock the bootloader. This will wipe your data, so do a backup beforehand.

If you want to, I can give you a more detailed guide.

I tend to talk about it with my family or friends. Let the anger out, and feel understood. If its too much anger for just talking, I recommend physical activities, something to get you exhausted.

I enjoy vaping. But I mix my own liquids, always without nicotine. But as much as i enjoy it, i dispise vapes. I think vaping is the major factor for increasing cigarette sales in the past two years. It is incredibly easy to get a vape stick just about everywhere. On top, many kiosk cashiers aren’t to serious about age verification. And it is tempting to get one. They smell nice, they taste good, they look stylish and are somehow “cool”. I’ll admit that if they weren’t such a ecological nightmare I’d probably try it aswell.

With root, it is not hard at all. You just net the “fix safetynet check” module for magisk. After that you’ll need to hide root within magisk: Hide magisk + Zygisk + enforce denylist. Some of the Apps might still detect the Magisk App somehow but for that, I recommend you “Hail” from Fdroid. It freezes / deactivates the apps you want and thaws them, whenever needed. In the frozen state, magisk won’t be detected, as it seems uninstalled to other apps. Hail is also incredibly nice for apps that drain your battery on idle. It is even possible to use GPay without any problems, though it is a bit tricky to set up for it to work. But there’s tutorials for that as well.

UBlock Origin is the name of the extension. My autocorrect messed it up ^^

Problem with that is, idcac accepts the cookies, ublock blocks the banner and thus you havent given consent and no cookies should be placed. Note that some websites might collect data regardless but there’s nothing much to do about it. ¯_ (ツ) _/¯

6 adblockers?! Have you looked into uBlock origins customisable block lists? You can combine at least 3 blockers with that. Additionally you could add custom block lists.

Edit: clarifications and spelling errors.

Once, I searched for a very specific thing about my laptops power throtteling behaviour and found an reddit post with an answer to it. After reading it, I saw my own username next to it :D I seemingly dug down that rabbit hole a couple of months prior.
