Going from 256GB -> 1TB is $400. That's insanity. A 1TB NVME drive is less than $100 these days.

1. Ditch Chromium.
2. Use a Password Manager instead of "log in with Google/Facebook/whatever"
3. Keep tabs on Mobile App permissions and revoke as many as you possibly can. I revoke location permissions from every single app except Navigation apps, which have to ask for location permissions. If possible, remove apps in favor of Native Alpha / Hermit web apps

Sacrifice a few extra bits and you can do floating point arithmetic on your fingers too

I just bought one last week and holy shit you aren't joking. Our Canon was malfunctioning for the last 2 years, so I finally bought a refurbed B&W Brother Laser. I've never had a printer just work like this. I didn't even have to connect to it. My browser just automatically detected it, even on Linux.

Film photography. Started with a camera I got for free, and $20 worth of film. Quickly spiraled into many cameras that I bought or inherited, and so much money on film and development

The sheer amount of pro-communist/pro-china comments is insane here. Plus the number of giant emojis that spam up the whole comment feed. Honestly, most of my real issues come down strictly to Hexbear users. A lot of their behavior completely ruins the platform for me.

That and the lack of fanbases for the things I like. There's very little Star Wars or Halo fan presence here. Feels like Star Trek is the only fandom with any presence here, so I have to go back to reddit for those things.

By the time you're 20 you'll be using Arch Linux and self-hosting everything!

Another bump for Proton. My wife and I share an account with a few different addresses each going to their own folder. (One for me, one for her, one for shopping, one for spam, etc) Their VPN is great too and includes ad/tracker blocking.

You'll catch on. It's just like using Reddit, except each subreddit includes a web address in the name. Other than that, it's mostly the same.

I've been using Photoprism. Single-user is fine for me. I see lots of people switching to immich, but haven't checked it out myself.

Photoprism supports sharing albums via link to people who don't have accounts. Mine is remotely accessible using Tailscale. I would like to set up proper remote access via DNS, but haven't made that leap yet, I'm too nervous about opening ports up.

Heck yeah

Question, where did you find a phone that isn't run by an ad company?
