Gboard with every connection blocked through Rethink Firewall except for “media.tenor.com” and “tenor.googleapis.com” (because GIFs are cool).

How can I specifically do this?

F-droid doesn‘t accept the Proton Mail client due to integrated google notification framework. The APK however is available on protonapps.com.

Proton is currently rewritting the Android application completely.

The Scientist will always take a backseat to Drop by The Pharcyde which did the same thing, but years earlier in 1995 (and a rap track no less)

Oh, I see. Today I learned, I was born in '98 and really not fan of rap. Haha

I don’t think anyone has appreciated what Coldplay did with their MV for The Scientist. In which Chris Martin really had to learn to sing the song backwards for the MV.

Here’s what Director Jamie Thraves said on his interview with MTV way back on 2003

“I had this idea that I wanted to do a story that’s tragic but starts off happy and ends happy, and the video is about rewinding to that happy ending,”

Thraves needed to find a new way to tell a narrative story that moved forward even as the action moved backward.

“The original idea was a straight narrative without the lead singer in the video,” said Thraves. “But Chris wanted to be in the video and he was really excited to learn how to sing the song backward.”

“He got a tape of the song recorded backward and he listened to it over and over. He’s a very passionate guy, so he got really into it. What we learned later on is about the problems with phonetics, because you have to be very careful with the lip movement so that when you end on a sound your mouth is formed in the right way.”

I think this would be always the most impressive music video in my book, ALWAYS. The dedication Chris Martin put man, I cant even think how he learned all of that.

Instead of using Reddit’s site, I opted to use Libdirect which redirects you to privacy respecting front-ends instead of Reddit’s website. It’s kinda handy once you figure out some instances, the downside is that some instances are down and you need to take the time pinging those instances if they are working.

Here’s the current use-case for me: I’ll type reddit.com/r/privacy on my browser but then the extension will find the working instance you set and will completely redirect you to https://l.opnxng.com/r/privacy.

The only problem for this one is that you can’t really comment to those questionable takes on r/unpopularopinion lol

Yeah, I guess some people must learn to swallow their ego and give it a try. I consider AI as a tool, not an entity who has a will of their own!

It’s always adapt or just stop even working all together.

I want to get out of this simulation, every month there’s some rich guy fucking destroys products that aren’t even broken. Each month passes another weird shit happens. Damn

IMO, AI won’t replace you, a person using will. AI does really help you make your job easier, but you still have to do the work. There ain’t no easy jobs

damn, reading the data collected from the Play Store made me finally delete my instagram account. the damn app is a free farm of data. fuck zuck

Reddit was the problem anyone couldn’t solve. I’m glad I did witnessed the greateast ending on r/Place this year before decided to delete my Reddit account, and yeah fuck u/spez!

Reading the thread makes me want to vomit, I can’t take all these agenda their talking about. As long as you’re on the internet. You’re not safe, until you’ve made some appropriate measures to cover your internet footprint.

I just stumbled it upon FDroid’s homepage by accident. I tried it, then I never used my Relay ever again lol. But I missed scrolling reddit by one hand using Relay, very convenient feature! I though I was going to miss r/fossdroid, but there’s and open source instance here on lemmy also, c/opensource if you’re interested.

Infinity is the best FOSS app I’ve used for Reddit and supported Relay through purchasing Pro. As a UI/UX Designer, I admire everything these devs contributed for their 3rd party apps to user experience compared to Reddit themselves.
