It isn’t proprietary either

What part of Matrix is proprietary? It’s not an app, instead, it’s an open protocol that can be used by anyone to build a messaging app or host a server.

Discord is an absolute piece of garbage, it’s not a good messaging app, definitely not a good place to host a community (seriously, I don’t understand why some communities saw Discord as an alternative after the Reddit API changes), and most importantly, it’s spyware. The company doesn’t have a business model and it was founded by a guy who is notorious for creating random shit that’s not economically sustainable at all. I don’t understand why anyone would use this shit. This video outlines everything that’s wrong with Discord: https://youtube.com/watch?v=uvNkdAggUGU

Switch to Revolt or Matrix

I remember using this (cheating a little bit with VPNs and proxies so I could claim the rewards like 20 times every day, because they are separate in every country) to get some Xbox giftcards

I also had ~15 Microsoft accounts and I put them all in a Microsoft family so I could transfer points from one account to another, it was really fun lol

Edge is the worst recommendation I’ve ever seen in my life

You should still switch to Linux.

Am I the only one who sticks to old school solutions like a dedicated HTPC running Linux and Kodi instead of ad-infested Android TV sticks/boxes?

Some solutions:

• Android
  • LibreTube
  • NewPipe
    • NewPipe x SponsorBlock
    • BraveNewPipe
  • Grayjay
• iOS
  • Yattee with this guide
  • (Adding Piped/Invidious website to Homescreen)
• Web
  • Piped
  • Invidious
  • ViewTube
  • (Tubo)
• Desktop
  • FreeTube
  • (Using any of the web solutions as PWAs)
• TV
  • Android TV
    • SmartTubeNext
  • Apple TV

I once did something even dumber. When I was new to Linux and the CLI, I added a recursive line to my shell config that would add it self to the shell config. So I pretty much had exponential growth of my shell config and my shell would take ~20 seconds to start up before I found the broken code snippet.

I think something might be wrong with your Neovim if it aggregated 70 gigs of log files.

Get a Google Pixel. Use GrapheneOS.

Definitely don’t go to fmhy.net and definitly don’t join the !piracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com community. Also don’t visit torrentgalaxy.to, 1337x.to or solidtorrents.to. You probably also wouldn’t want to check out rutracker.org or therarbg.com.
