I've been on Linux for the last year, that's definitely something I learned the hard way multiple times on the path. I'm very nervous about the move towards "AI" handling a lot of that stuff.

My source is primarily the GrapheneOS team's praises for how Apple handles iOS, particularly in Lockdown Mode. There was also a recent situation where they warned their users of "mercenary spyware" attacks.
It's also a position that many in the SecureBlue community would agree with, which is where I've learned the majority of my recent security stuff from.
I never really got into OS modding until recently, so that could be why everything felt smooth until the end. Looking back I suspect a lot of my good experience chalked down to luck.
MV3 is more than sufficient for ad blocking. uBlock Origin Lite has been fantastic in my experience.
What is a turfblaster? I'm confused but maybe someone can explain that to me
MacOS, iOS, GrapheneOS (and even then, Graphene doesn't believe themselves to be doing enough due to the fundamental limitations in AOSP)
There is one distro trying, and even they make it clear that they're bound by the limitations of the Linux desktop's security model at the moment (SecureBlue).
It is also technically possible to harden Windows to become nearly bulletproof but that usually requires third party software like ThreatLocker.
i am so ready for this to be over. i've been on the market for an upgrade for a while now but i refuse to let myself get scammed. this is pure disgust.
I skipped 8/8.1 purely because the look of it annoyed me. XP and 7 basically ran flawless on all my machines I had them on. I wasn't too annoyed with 10 on HDD, but SSD definitely helped. 11 felt fundamentally identical to 10 for me for the first few years, and the AI stuff was when everything fell apart for me. It may be a matter of luck, ignorance, and not understanding quite what was wrong.
The situation with Windows the last few years has left me cynical of this entire craze. hopefully things end up alright in the end.
Not shocking. Elon's company sued a state over banning the use of AI to make CSAM.

Ngl, I can't blame most for flocking to Gmail. It's a lot more of a pain in the rear to self-host something like that, and it's just plain convenient.
It's the same reason a lot of the people leaving Gmail go to essentially the Privacy Google (Proton) as the replacement.
