„they” could have “solved” the necessity for owning a pirate hat. but they fucked up too many times.

even if you’re ok with just streaming and owning nothing for your money… you need like 6 subscriptions to listen and watch the stuff you want. I’m not willing nor able to spend hundreds for nothing. I used that money to purchase a large hard drive and some cool tshirts from my favorite bands.

greed is an ugly removed and I am wearing yet again my trusty old pirate hat.

I’m not touching anything google with a 10m pole… Chrome will not end up on any of my systems.

Chromium or forks of that would be ok I guess. But I’ll stick to FireFox.

I agree fully, but I want to add that I would not suggest a freerange VPN.

Nothing is free on a free VPN - you pay with your data. It’s always a question of trust using any type of VPN, but a free VPN is 100% going to sell collected information to … whom ever.

Anything else. Yes. Save everything, leech everything. I hate streaming music… it makes no sense to me. A movie I watch once … mh. maybe. Anything else. Load it. Save it. Hoard it.
