    Heh, reminds me of when I learned Linux. One day Windows 10 annoyed me so much that I swore never to use it as my main os again and started using Ubuntu. 2 days later I got so annoyed by it that I started to install Arch. I made lots of mistakes but had a working system which I ended up using for a year. Fun times. Nowadays I just use Fedora but I'm tempted to distro-hop again

    I think Snap has the potential to be better than Flatpak. It's a real sandbox instead of the half-assed shit Flatpak has going on. The problem I have with Snap is that Canonical keeps the Server closed-source. I don't want a centralized app store where Canonical can just choose to remove apps they don't like. So as long as the Server is closed-source, I will stay on Flatpak

    We consume pseudo-food, watch pseudo movies and participate in pseudo sports, heck even pseudo politics. Why pseudo? Because everything is made as cheap as possible and to distract us from the suffering that capitalism brings us so that we won't rise up.

    Examples:

    • Our vegetables are genetically modified so that they grow bigger but they can't reproduce anymore and the seeds are copyrighted.
    • The movies that are watching are catered to the mainstream and don't even really get a message across. Marvel movies try to tell us that rich people with power will save the world
    • Football games are there to distract people "give them bread and games and they will never revolt"
    • The people at power, through massive propaganda, seperate our people into left and right. These two parties will then fight eachother instead of realizing who is really opressing us










  • It doesn't matter if you use the DNS of your ISP or not they can always see what websites you visit. What they cannot see is website contents if the website is using https, which most modern websites are.

    That means your ISP can see that you went to youtube.com but they can't tell which video you watched or what else you did on the website.

    The only thing they could do is analyze the traffic and see that there are many requests in a short time and assume you are probably watching a video.

    Edit:

    They will of course also not see if you clicked on a category on 9gag.

    Also there's no reason for using a VPN as the VPN provider will see the exact same thing as your ISP.
