I do virtually everything with Magit. It's the best of both worlds IMO. You still need to actually understand git and its commands but it's like using the CLI with far fewer keystrokes and a better log interface than the CLI.

Magit is like using the terminal client but easier. You have to press fewer keys to do things, and it makes the various operations discoverable through menus. It's really the best way to interact with git IMO. However, if you don'

The fact that you'd refer to this as extortion makes me sick. The management/capital class loves the free market except for when it applies to labor, then suddenly it's extortion when supply and demand don't work in your

Apps cannot use the microphone on iOS 14 without your awareness. There is a little dot that will show up at the top of the screen if an app has recently used microphone or camera. Hopefully this can assuage your paranoia.

There are so many other options than coinbase for fiat <-> crypto exchange. How is crypto centralized around coinbase? Hell if you really want to be a true cryptopunk you can use bisq for decentralized crypto <-> fiat exchange.

Crypto provides global access to a decentralized, permissionless, censorship resistant financial system. Bitcoin provides a savings vehicle that has a completely predictable and transparent supply. That's very valuable.
