Brave absolutely spies on you. In fact it may be one of the worst offenders.

Same here, only I use a few different browsers between work and home. I've never once had to skip over to a different browser because Firefox couldn't do it. Only thing that ever stops a website from working for me is uBlock Origin, and that just means it's usually doing its job.

Brave is reskinned Chrome with a whole lot of baggage.

That's about as good a reason for deleting an account as I've ever seen.

Not in my experience. They don't know how to use the terminal and downloading anything shady online won't install. No auto-updates, no bloat, nothing but what I put there. How would that not work?

Honestly Darktable works pretty damn well after you adjust to the work flow differences. I would still prefer Lightroom but after switching jobs and no longer using a company subscription for Adobe, Darktable is perfectly fine for my hobby photography.

Linux is perfect for grandparents or non tech savvy family if you set it up for them. Once it's up and running, there isn't much of anything they can do to break it.

This has been me as well. I switched to daily driving Linux after a week on windows 11. It hasn't been 100% perfect but answers were so easy to find and implement. My shit works, and works well. More importantly it works exactly how I want it to.

I went with EndeavourOS

We need to bring it back. The internet was way note fun during the surfing era.

We have switched to donating to Habitat for Humanity. Seems like the best of the convenient options.
