Yeah, that's what this uses. But copy's x86 emulator on their site does not have any sort of networking, while anura seems to use some kind of http proxy to have the vm be fully networked.
You can even install packages and run graphical apps in anura. (Very, very, very slowly).
First things first: Check if any data was actually leaked/breached.
Many times, the data leaks news sites like to report in the most alarmist manner, don't actually contain any new data, and are just aggregations of older breaches that already happened. Although still worth reporting, sadly, due to the way ads and clickbait works, they are incentivized to play it up and report it as the LARGEST DATA BREACH EVER 2024 CLICK ME IMMEDIATELY.
But yeah. My recommendation: Find high quality sources which either don't report this stuff, or I like lemmy (and used to like reddit), because when stuff like that gets posted, it gets called out by users in the comments.
I want to like Plasma, really I do, but even when I haven't chosen it as a DE it overheats my laptop because Baloo File Extractor just won't fucking quit consuming a CPU core for what seems like hours a day.
I remember having this issue. Basically, it was a bug, where baloo file manager was stuck on a file. After some time (and maybe a reinstall?), and deleting the index, baloo worked fine.
Only vivaldi caught this issue. Brave had this api enabled, most likely on accident.
But the problem is, that chromium is just such big and complex software, when combined with development being driven by Google, it's just impossible for any significant changes or auditing to be done by third parties. Google is capable of exteriting control over Brave, simply by hiding changes like above, or by making massive changes like manifest v3, which are expensive for third parties to maintain.
Brave can maintain 1 big change to chromium, but for how long? What about 2, 3, etc.
My other big problem with brave is that I see them somewhat mimicking Google's beginnings. Google started out with 3 things: an ad network, a browser, and a search engine.
Right now, Brave has those same three things. It feels very ominous to me, and I would rather not repeat the cycle of enshittification that drove me away from chrome and goolgle.
Disabling javascript increases security, and offers a little bit of privacy. Those are both separate from anonymity, but people conflate the three often.
For example, javascript can be made to do arbitrary websoccket or http connections to any ip/hostname your computer has access to — even local networks or localhost.
I use the browser extension Port authority to block it.
Of course, port scanning is used by ebay to scan users computers, and discord.
Disabling javascript prevents websites from tracking exactly what you do on each site, or what local ports you have open. This is definitely an increase in privacy, as it relates to hiding what you're doing. However, you noted it comes at the cost of anonymity, as you become uniquely identifiable.
Anyway the centralized nature of Revolt Chat makes it no very appealing for me.
I agree with this. I will probably stick with either matrix or xmpp due, to their federated nature, and strong E2EE. Matrix is a better discord replacement, as it has more features, is more standardized, has a better web client, and has "spaces", which are somewhat analogous to discord servers.
Xmpp however, is much more lightweight on both servers and clients than matrix, and it's E2EE works more reliably (none of that "failed to decrypt nonsense), and makes a better E2EE messenger.
I attempted to find evidence to support this.
I found one reddit post claiming this, but they themselves did not provide any evidence.
freedom of religion is a human right bruh i did not say anything but i believe in god the banned me and claimed i was being homophobic 1. i said nothing about it 2. stfu even if i was
Not exactly the most compelling piece of evidence, and this was all I could find.
Yes

My understanding is that gnome also has support for drawing tablets built in, and there are also other apps to customize buttons.
