You could also get a private E-Mail address that doesn't scan all your mails to make money out of it. Google tries to enprison you in it's ecosystem by "facilitating" logins and so on. If you don't pay with money, you pay with your data.

mailbox.org
posteo.net

Both are great alternatives for only a couple of bucks a month.

Every news result on duckduckgo links to MSN (sh.itjust.works)

I noticed this for a longer time but I just thought MSN flooded the web with its shit. It didn't came to my mind it is actually duckduckgo trying to shove these msn links into my face...

I guess this is similar to google amp links, just stealing the content of other websites.

It annoys me big time, -msn doesn't seem to help

Vertical Mouse - alternative to Logitech Lift? (sh.itjust.works)

submitted 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) by gigachad@sh.itjust.works to c/linux@programming.dev

Update: I bought the Lift mouse and it just works perfect out of the box.

I know there are better communities such as !linuxhardware@programming.dev , but it isn't as active and I hope you understand me posting here for outreach.

So I have problems with my wrist from working on the computer, so I thought about trying a vertical mouse. I found the Logitech Lift Vertical would be a nice option, but after doing research I read it is a pain on Linux and does not work reliably. About some other models I read you need to set them up with Windows first to get them working (uurgghh)

Does anybody have good experiences with a vertical mouse on Linux?

I use Mint btw

[SOLVED] Disabling Firefox telemetry completely - incoming.telemetry.mozilla.org (sh.itjust.works)

submitted 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) by gigachad@sh.itjust.works to c/privacy@lemmy.world

I disabled any data collection using the GUI some days ago:

However Firefox still regularly tries to connect to this address incoming.telemetry.mozilla.org, which is apparently blocked by my network.

Now my question - why does FF try to connect, what is it and how do I stop it?

What's infuriating here? You almost never get a reason why you have been declined (if they even answer you). So I find this message pretty nice and polite.. Or am I overlooking something?

Almost everything on Amazon you can also find on eBay. Sometimes it is a couple of bucks more expensive, but it's usually due to shit like this. Haven't bought on Amazon for 4 years now.
