I think that this is the best take on this topic

They are like kids

This app is an absolute banger! Keep up the great work♥️

Why?

How arent Microsoft engineers annoyed by this themselves?Do they even use the products that they make?

But that is a double-edged sword. What if, for example, mastodon.social doesn't defederate with Meta, but you defederate mastodon.social? Now you've just cut yourself off from a huge portion of the fediverse. Admins should defederate from Meta if their community wants to do that, but defederating from other instances that didn't do that is going a bit too far, in my opinion.

It is, but it's not likely as lots of them are in it only for the money.

Are other single board computers like OragnePI or Libre Computer any better?

Its better in a lot of ways and I have fully switched, didnt look back since.

There is a difference if you want to make yourself look like everyone by design or if you use Tor, if you use Tor your real identity can not be traced back to you so there is no point in making yourself look like everyone else. But then again this is only for individuals that have high-threat models.

It is not perfect, but its a good balance in terms of privacy and search results. If you have a high treath model consider making your own self hosted searx search engine ( while using tor if needed ) to further enhance your privacy

man back in the day aniwatch.me was the best
