While it doesn't address your security concerns, using a VPN does allow you to circumvent resolution restrictions on certain mobile plans (i.e. streaming limited to 720p)

Celebrate? You underestimate just how lazy I am.

Was the final nail in the coffin for me. Blocked Reddit via DNS house-wide so there's no chance I accidentally visit them again.. Can be annoying since so many answers are there, but as others have said extensions + wayback machine solve that. The block had reduced my frustration level considerably though, I have no regrets.

Restoring a local Signal backup doesn't let you use the same profile on multiple accounts, it forces older profiles to deregister. Try it.

I removed it a year ago for this same reason. Love the extension, hate the seemingly unjustifiable CPU usage.

Ask your model to work harder. Sure.

The meth head part is perfect. No one wants to park in a spot a tweeker is 'working'. If you are trying to save a spot, just act that out if you feel guilty.

Pedestrians have the right-of-way at any rate vs a car.

Signal allows just 1 device at a time, and you need to register by phone number. Unless you use their tablet mode which stores data on server.. Maybe check out other projects without such requirement?

Even with rooting (to the dismay of GrapheneOS PR team, so sad), Signal will not backup or restore properly since it uses Strongbox, so you cannot clone it amongst profiles or users. Thank the Titan chip for that. Legit a good thing, except it your case.

Just don't use Signal.

If he's the type of guy that doesn't expect repayment and did it out of the kindness in his heart, you can reciprocate by doing the same. Let him know you owe him one, and make sure sure it's received that you're serious and not just something "you say".

When your time comes to do something for him, do you expect payment? Or for him to grovel?
