Don't worry, there's still plenty of reasons Windows sucks and they'll only make it worse.
This here, and honestly I would rather be prepared for the enshitification of streaming music because Capitalism will make it shitty everyone. Just like video streaming. Rarely if ever does a company say "That's enough money."
Don't forget the worst most condescending people working for Brave. I actually had one of their people antagonize me on social media years ago for not liking their invasive homepage at the time.
Exactly what I was coming to say. I have nothing but love. Except for transphobic bigots (really any bigot). Fuck those guys!
They also make a great deal of money using people's user data to match them to pages that pay to promote and have their page shown to more people. It's 14 bucks to have a single post "boosted" for a page otherwise your posts will be held at the bottom of the algorithm.
I took a five year break for this reason. As I embraced being an artist it seemed the only way to know what is going on locally in my stupid medium-sized Texas town is Facebook. Even local government news was only on Facebook. So if I wanted to find calls for art locally to submit for galleries then I had to join. Luckily with two fences and uBlock Origin the only information they get is by logging any text I put in. It's a lot of work to try to maintain my privacy though and no official app ever. I use a couple container apps from F-Droid, but they barely work most of the time so it mostly has to be on Desktop. I've tried to get a few friends to switch to federated apps and they look at me the same way. Even my partner's casino job requires a Facebook account because if you want someone to take a shift for you it's the only way. Also any company news. It should be regulated as a utility.
