If you don't like facebook try mewe. There's no ads & you get the basics for free, but you can pay for things like a dark theme or extra emojis in different themes. Mastodon is a good twitter replacement.

The problem is that Apple has always claimed ios provides more privacy (& security) than android, but that's irrelevant if you don't make sure your users are capable of finding the settings. Apple has always marketed to people

To me it's like any other stock, except more volatile. When you use it for payments it's like selling some of your shares in a stock.

when I first read this I thought it was something like this: https://futurism.com/glimpse-electronic-tattoos/amp . I don't see the point of pinching my phone case to do something when I could simply touch the screen

This is going to be available in linux mint, right? Using ubuntu was a horrible experience even with 4GB of RAM. Mint was nice though.

what planet are you living on? you can install custom launchers,dialers,sms, third-party app stores, & pretty much whatever else even without root or flashing a ROM. Not to mention the ability to sideload apps. The sky is the limit with

they put up with it because apple products are overpriced - ALL of them — & they incorrectly equate price with quality, the more expensive it is the better quality it must be in their eyes.

who would you want to share a password that you created with and if you did why not send it to them in an email, instead of a link that would be (potentially) accessible to anyone who got that url?

if you use windows (or linux with wine) you can write self-contained apps using Autohotkey. It's free from autohotkey.com. It's usually advertised as a macro-recorder which it also does.
