Using it as an adjective in some cases is fine, never use it as a noun, unfortunately due to assholes using it that way it now has a negative conotation.

Don’t take down your Christmas lights (inside at least). Make hot chocolate at home, create rituals for yourself
Dell’s current lineup is not to expensive (≈400) and runs Linux well
except an apartment costs money and so there are barriers to entry, lemmy accounts are free.
The only good analogy is “if you want to be friends with us, stop being friends with assholes”.
No it isn’t. If you want to hear them feel free to create an account on an instance that doesn’t block them, that is how the fediverse and the real world works.
They are only isolated from those who don’t want to hear them.
They are not “silenced”: just like in real life they have every right to express themselves, but normal people have every right not to listen to them. This comes from a leftist btw.
In the EU we are already working on just that.
The article you sent me is totally absurd and shows a complete lack of understanding or will to understand.
Librewolf and Arkenfox exist for the exact same reason this article exists: unbridled paranoia. They are actually by fat less secure than Firefox because of the risk of a compromised build chain which is lesser for an established browser.
The first example of “phoning home” your article gives is merely the get request Firefox uses to check if you are online and redirect you to a login portal if you are on shared WiFi.
The article also then makes a complaint about Firefox making requests to the sites you visit most frequently, which maked absolutely no sense, because if you visit them so frequently that then end up in your new page, then what is the problem with Firefox preloading the content?
On Google analytics, it is not part of the browser, but just used on Mozilla’s website with an explicit exemption from Google not to use that data.
The “safebrowsing” requests are to download the list of known malware sites in order to keep you safe. They are not used for tracking.
The health report telemetry is the only thing that could be vaguely construed as actually being problematic, but it literally collects no personal data and is used to improve the browser.
Finally, the entire paragraph about pocket is bullshit: or course, if you create an account and start saving web pages to pocket then it is going to be stored on pocket’s servers… What would you expect? The solution is simple: Just don’t use pocket, nobody is forcing you to.
It is infuriating to see these lies repeatedly perpetuated online by people who have no understanding of what they are criticizing
None of the points mentioned even vaguely constitute a threat to user privacy.
To make matters worse they actually weaken users security by driving them to forks that risk them not recieving timely security updates.
Why disable telemetry?

You don’t want to know
First accept that there is no returning to how things were before the mistake. This is key to moving on.
Then, if your mistake hurt others, apologise to them. Don’t expect forgiveness, remember there is no going back to how things were. Just know you have done what you could to make things right.
Now reflect on the impact it had on your life and what you can do about it, and by this I do not mean what happened, I mean how it affected you: failef an exam? The solution might not be to retake the exam.
Finally understand that it is now behind you, and focus on how not to repeat it in the future, and what you can do to mitigate the impact it had on you or others.

I went from being my partner’s life, with all the stress for me, and jealousy/insecurity for her, to a relationship where each or us have our own lives but choose to share them.
Circumcision is immoral, religion can be a serious social harm, the use of AI in art should be prohibited or at least frowned upon
