It's really hard to do E2EE in a user-friendly way with email for starters.

I'm always surprised by lists like these that fail to mention Space Station 13, the most actively developed 10+ year old FOSS game on GitHub. There are numerous forks of it, with tgstation being the most popular one [1]. SS13 is multip

It's a bit too basic for me at the moment. If there was location history and the ability to create custom maps (see Google My Maps/uMap/GeoJSON) then it'd be valuable enough for me to get subscription for.

Mosh supports roaming. Or are you referring to something else about reconnecting?

It's hard to justify putting any data on Google services these days with how often they shut them down or add restrictions which make it impractical to continue using.

Rclone for encrypted sync (can be virtually mounted) and Duplicacy for encrypted backup. What makes nFreezer different?

I have like 80 desktop Firefox extensions on for various privacy measures and helpful utilities. The fact that you can't even install Firefox let alone all these useful extensions is a big reason why I'm now on Android instead.

Left-wing protests throughout the summer have frequently turned violent, with it being directed at random passersby, police, businesses, etc. I'm not sure exactly what you're referring to by "violent intentions" but that

After the last election there was the attempted impeachment and RussiaGate witch hunt which found no evidence that Trump conspired with Russia to influence the election. It's pretty brazen to ignore that ans say the left never disputed

There's nothing in that article suggesting a false flag. At most Hina Shamsi suggests that leftist actions are being judged more harshly.
