FF and uBO have been mentioned many times already, so I’ll say use encrypted DNS with blocking on your browser like Mullvad, Aha Blitz, or ControlD.

Centralized identity and federation with proper account deactivation/termination procedures folks.

Yeah lol. This was more a circumvention via technicality. If they still gave away the data and against privacy laws, it’s still a violation.

Mint unironically. I've reached a point where I've got a lot of things going on in my life that I don't have the time and just need something that works and I don't need to fiddle around with much.

I also want it on desktop

Spotify without a paid subscription on FF desktop with uBlock Origin is pretty good. It will start playing random music after a while, but it's not enough to bother me. Just refresh and you can go back to listening to your music.

When the people who know nothing about technology make the decisions about technology.

There’s a difference between using closed-back noise-cancelling headphones in an office or plane and using open-back headphones or bone-conduction while riding a bike or running so you can hear vehicles and other runners/cyclists around you.

Open-back headphones are not just niche usage. They are also used for music production, watching movies at home (feels like you’re listening to speakers in the room with you instead of small headphones), and gaming (open soundstage makes pinpointing sound around you like footsteps more accurate).

It's primarily for safety, like walking outside so you're aware of your surroundings. As for critical listening, an open soundstage is more accurate to the original sound than closed headphones.

That he’s walking around without consequences does in fact show he can just ignore it. Actually have him suffer the consequences of his actions please.

Sooo once the invasion is complete and the new southern border is with Guatemala, they're gonna want to invade them too because the migrants are coming from there? And go on and on to Hondura, Nicaragua, etc.

The music separation and speech transcription plug-ins actually sound nice. Obviously that will depend on how reliable they actually are.
