I was thinking "Oh, maybe I'll donate. They're donating to MSF and Tor? That's cool." And then I saw this part.

I thought this was about Valve's fork of wine for a moment and I was about to rant

Valve's proton is super great, love it. Proton, the cloud service, I'm a bit less into. I've thought about switching to Tuta or Riseup, but my proton email is already connected to enough stuff to make it a pain. Probably still better than google though.

Its miles and miles better than Google... but I would recommend using an email service that at bare minimum open sources all its code.

Oh and obviously do not pay for it. Not too hard for the powers that be to trace a credit card transaction, if they get interested enough to.

And fucking no, no do not use fucking bitcoin, its not secure, its easy traceable... god now i need a smoke just thinking about the total insanity of cryptocurrency.

Oh right fuck, for the love of GOD dont use Windows or Mac.
