This is really just a power-grab move. There already is "Let's Encrypt" - try going to a website that isn't https. You'll know right away that you might have typed a web address wrong.

I prefer Firefox and AdNauseum. I like seeing how the false ad clicks add up over time.

Mullvad from the AUR, it's great.

I use Jellyfin - music, shows, movies... it's open-source and has a lot of features Plex doesn't including, not having to create an account. It's your's to do what you want.

idk, seems pretty thin. Will I ever eat at an In-N-Out... probably not, but not because of a boycott. I've got other things to focus my energy on, besides, if it's a real health concern, I would think OSHA would step in.

I really wish Steam would put their foot down and stop these launchers. They are nothing but a nuisance and add no value for the customer.

EDIT: Just to be clear, when EA Play joined Gamepass there wasn't a separate launcher when you went to play an EA game on the Xbox. Steam could make this work with them and the other companies. They have enough pull to make this work - it would be greatly welcomed.

I like GNOME better with extensions. My main reason for using it is Wayland.

The AUR is the best part of Arch.

Was "Idiocrocy" not good enough for you?

If you're on a phone, try Newpipe. If it is AndroidTV, there's only one - SmartTube.

There are user friendly options if you're willing to use them. There's /e/ foundation's Murena phone that you can buy. It's based on LineageOS for microG with a custom launcher much like iOS. It works out of the box, no tinkering. There's also GrapheneOS that has a web interface for installation. It is only for Google Pixel phones and takes a different approach to privacy than LineageOS for microG. They both work in protecting your privacy. As far as computer OSes, there are many "easy to use" options for the novice - PopOS & Linux Mint are the best two that come to mind.

I personally see this as bad. Look at all the local television stations getting bought up and have become "message deliverers". There are only few companies that own the majority and have decided that delivering local news is secondary to deploying a message. [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_fHfgU8oMSo]
