    Thank you for Informative infograpahic. However i have doubt about recommending Waterfox, in my opinion it should not be recommended for the reason that its involved in an unclear business practice to sustain its development.

    Waterfox is a fork of Firefox with some tweaking, probably somewhat close to LibreWolf which i think have better offering for being more a community driven project.

    However, web browser is a complex piece of software, features and important bugs & security fixes being added from time to time, so it is also important to consider how fast they merge the change from Upstream (Firefox). If it’s too long to to get update it could introduce security issues. So as of now i don’t see any viable alternative to Firefox, Chromium or even Ungoogled Chromium.

      Honestly privacy and social media don’t make sense together at all. With all of these platforms, your privacy = how much you share on them. You can’t share sensitive information on any social media (corpo or federated) and expect it to be private.

    I know many people feel entrapped by streaming services, but I switched to Bandcamp like 10 years ago and have never been happier with my music habits. I buy music I like on Bandcamp Friday and store it locally on my PC/phone. Load up and take away as needed.

    Sure, it’s a bit more effort to purposefully seek new music, but I love that process. Makes it a very deliberate listening experience.

      It is.

      Guessing OP marked it as paid thinking it was because Kagi search engine is paid. Same developers.

      They do call out switching to Lemmy in the graphic at least, thought that was pretty funny tho as well. Could link to a Lemmy community as well for the same thing

      My guess is that it’s to reach the people on Reddit but not on anything else.

      free: arrr… (distant parrot noises).

      To be more on topic: In deezer you could listen to audiobooks in correct order with just a random email account.
      My last disappointing use of spotify free was, as it force-shuffled the album I was listening to.

    I have just changed from fastmail (Australian owned, but hosted in the US) to mailbox.org (German owned and hosted, as I understand it).

    The reasoning is that I didn’t want my email provider to be reliant on a US hosting service. This graphic has fastmail as a preferred choice though, and doesn’t mention mailbox.org at all.

    Of all the alternatives for gmail, why suggest another American solution? GMX (.com, .net, .de, .ch) has been around for 30 years, is fully German owned and hosted, and got both free and paid tiers just like mail.com.
