The only reason I even have a microsoft account is to play Minecraft. Other than that, most of their services have perfectly good alternatives that are a lot better IMO

I'm probably the only person in my entire school who knows what lemmy is lol

Gen-z here - I know how to torrent lol. It's insane how tech illiterate a lot of my friends are, even in my IT classes don't know what HTTPS is or what an ethernet cable is so... yeah

Feels weird being known as "the guy who's an expert at computers" despite being a noob

Why are you using Lemmy then? Go back to reddit if you aren't scared of them

Nothing

Most people in the UK government regardless of their party don't give 2 shits about online privacy. Remember KOSA?

There are also much bigger issues at the moment IMO

during my childhood, you needed sky to watch stuff like nickelodeon and CN. shit was mad expensive, basicallv useless in the rain and had ads. It was awful

It's just a matter of all bark no bite - just saying things to get people to like you instead of any action

Tories need to be kicked out whatever it takes

LibreTube - uses Piped as video source by default. Subscriptions and playlists can be created, all without actually interacting with YouTube.

Clipious - uses Invidious as the video source. Also allows for subscribing and accounts. Lesser known client

NewPipe - Gets the source directly from YT. Allows for subscribing and creating playlists

Additionally, there's also ReVanced that lets you patch the regular YT app to include useful features.

I've been using a lot of Debian based distributions recently after half a year on Arch. The main thing I miss a lot is the AUR. The convenience of having all my packaged in one format is a huge reason why I use Arch. Is there anything like it for the AUR?

I also think that things like Flatpaks and Snaps could be useful, as I don't really want to have tons of repositories for tons of programs I install.

There are open source, free YouTube clients such as LibreTube that already had this feature. Still don't understand why people still buy premium when alternatives exist, that are much better.

The amount of data this app collects actually makes my stomach churn. Jesus christ.

Has anyone noticed that apps on F-Droid or that you just get from GitHub are just better than the ultra-popular apps on the play store? Most of them are open source and have no ads or trackers. But this isn't true on the Play Store at all.

I see myself always getting apps from F-Droid now because there is always an alternative to the ad-infested bloated privacy infesting BS that I find on the play store. It's unfortunate that it's gotten this bad, where the only reason I even use the play store is to install updates or games.

I have had Google as an app disabled for the past 2 months. I don't use google assistant or anything like that and I have had no issues. I'm not going to uninstall the play store, google play services or carrier services since I know those are pretty much integral to my phone.

I've used ADB to uninstall the vast majority of the bloatware or other software on my Samsung phone, but I'm not sure if uninstalling Google will actually cause my device to become inoperable.
