Is a centralised service. I want to pay "cash", I want my privacy. It is no one's business which things I give money to.

That sounds incredibly cumbersome, akin to things like umatrix or noscript (which I use but 99% of users would never touch or be able to correctly control).

I know and I kinda hate its name for it... I could have sworn it also had an option to only allow HTTPS connections with error as fallback. But I guess I saw that in some other add-on. Sorry for the false information!

I organise my files, I don't put everything into the same directory. I save them all over my file system. Same for uploads, I do not put them into one directory prior to uploading.

From all I have heard, docker is not even secure enough to let user A do things in dockerthingyA and user B in dockerthingyB. From what I was told, user A could easily break out into dockerthingyB and maybe even the host. Are you sure it re

Everyone is punished for Windows' Adobe Reader. I never got it either. PDF is not a web format. I would not want to read doc files in my browser either. Evince(-light) starts up in milliseconds.

And then there happens a drive-by exploit that silently replaces your extensions with malicious versions. Now you think you are using the source you (be honest, you didn't) verified but you aren't. And it's being evil. The br

I doubt that you are making a site 5$ per month. Does anyone know reasonable numbers what a single recurring visitor can make you?

You can have a fake name to the world but Facebook makes it really hard to have a fake identity towards Facebook. "That names does not sound real, can't let you signup, sorrryyyy!"
