Hence word "official" not being mentioned. As I recall it was spotted in the code.

I'm reading this on Boost (once off payment) and no ads...

That was the instance I signed up at, about 10 mins before I posted this link. Lemmy also went down in the last day, so nothing is bulletproof. But the site is working as I'm browsing and commenting right now.

You can though search, hit TAB, and then do edits to the line before executing. That is pretty handy if it is something complex across a few machines with a specific change.

Paid Proton Mail with my own domain name and own PGP keypair. Although it now has a way to securely search mail, I use the bridge service to allow Betterbird mail to sync my mail to my PC for searching.

About 3 months back I cancelled Netflix (after being in it for many years) and moved to free Tubi.

I keep trying it but for me its not ready yet. Finally, in 2023 I can actually boot into it, but I get random freezes for up to a few minutes at a time. So it's closer, but not stable yet. Hoping that Plasma 6 will be good to go.

Credit card everywhere in South Africa for me - firstly safer, but I also settle it in full monthly so avoid bank costs and interest, and I get a lot of benefits back like 35% off fruit & veg, 75% off fitness devices annually, etc.

RCS is more carrier based messaging and the whole stack is not built with proper E2EE as far as I know. No I'm thinking more like XMPP type open protocol, but endorsed by an international open standards body. I'm fearing that RCS is too tied to carriers just like SMS itself was.

Interesting that we already have a W3C standard for social networking but messaging itself seems to elude us..

Manjaro Linux, also for my gaming. Booted up my secondary Windows drive yesterday on my main computer, just to update it.

It really depends on where in Africa, as in some countries, it literally carries the death penalty... Africa is a big and diverse place.
