I don't believe you'd read the body of my post. As I'd never said default search engine couldn't be changed
So point is that while your saying I didnt do research what gave you that impression. My dispute is with obfuscation

I'd agree but if all I wanted was to torrent without my ISP knowing then its not important, personally I use paid for VPN service but I'd class myself as a privacy advocate
Download whatever distro seems interesting, if tails is something you want to try then try it I actually had a similar introduction to Linux but I doubt youd stick with tails as its not a daily not to say tails doesn't have its place. I personal like arch distros and if your moving from windows you'd probably like KDE plasma. Using Linux won't instantly net you privacy, this is something that you'd need to pro actively aim to be private, like what is the URL for the pirate bay, 1337x, can I trust this torrent? Which browser do you use and search engine, what torrent client can be trusted.
I'd recommend using transmission, qbittorrent or anything Foss with half decent user base. VPN you've got proton free, mullvad costs but I'd say its worth it or you can tunnel through tor network. Distros you've got lots of options, recommend you look at distrowatch or youtubers like distrotube. Find a small pall of trust worthy torrent sites and names of trust worthy repackere, fitgirl, dodi, jc141 to name a few.
But most importantly. Make sure to seed 🙃
Any distro is fine for piracy, ~~you could also set up tor tunnel for torrents~~ Only if your client supports it
if ISP is something your worried about or just use a free VPN service
If you'd not mentioned BG3 then more people would agree, but any game that is buggy should be refundable for sure and to say other wise is anti consumer
Part of the vocal few, most people seem to agree that googles relationship to Mozilla is negative, and it doesn't matter that you'd find the answer by searching for it, what does matter is that there was a perfectly adequate solution that is now gone for no rhyme or reason, and not one person here has said why removing the option is beneficial but what ever, this conversation has become petty and I don't care for the direction you've taken
I have and much prefer heroic which als o handles updates
Never kick an underdog even if the underdog is directly funded by google, I should imagine google had a large part to play in these changes. But anyway thanks for the link
I've also come off and confrontational with my stance, its hard not to be when a large portion of replys have been dancing around the stated issue of senseless removal of a key setting
If that suits your needs, then sure, but personally, I'd choose a tablet PC for its versatility, broader app selection, and to avoid the challenges posed by Google's APIs within what I see as a problematic ecosystem. I appreciate my degoogled phone, but it's still quite common to encounter apps that heavily rely on Google's services
But it was much easier lol and logical
Works amazingly but anyone know how to support without google play
