  • You are not missing out. There are a lot of lunatics in this world, and IMO, it is better to have nothing than be with them. I was in it for the long term and because I wanted a serious relationship, with a person that is equal to me, not above or below me, and with mutual support for each other. Turns out most guys below 30 are turned off by that. And so basically I stayed boyfriendless for a long time. But the first “real” boyfriend I got, I kept, and he kept me, because we both had an agreement when it came to what we wanted out of the relationship. While I definitely know the pain, the genuine pain especially when you’re lying in bed, you know the one, right? This is still better than to have a destructive lunatic who will tear down everything happy about your life. With a person like that, you’ll wish the pain back because now it felt pleasant when compared to this. So please, do not despair. Carry on. Do things that you enjoy, or things where you can meet other young people. Then, forget about the dating advice. Treat even romantic interests as friends at first, and see what develops. Because IMO, no serious relationship was ever born out of some red pill YouTube trash.

    This is just my opinion on this and I’m sure other people here have given good advice.

    There absolutely are real conspiracies, USA mass surveillance, corporate control over media and censorship, social media amplifying autocratic propaganda while shadowbanning democratic content, big tech making propaganda easily accessible though text, image and video generation, fossil fuel oligarchs lobbying against change for the better, anything Epstein was doing, etc.

    No need to invent stuff.






  • Tldr: GrapheneOS for Normie apps, Jolla for FOSS exclusive phone.

    IMO take GrapheneOS, because when it comes to security, there is basically no competition. You need the security if you want to use normie proprietary apps. There is just so much cancer in that ecosystem, it is unbelievable, furthermore, you’re handing the malware an unbelievably capable sensor platform with centimetre accurate positioning systems, motion sensors which can gauge your weight, age and gender, microphones and cameras. You NEED the protection that GrapheneOS gives you.

    On the other hand, if you only want to use FOSS on your phone, then SailfishOS is also a good choice. But due to security, it is highly recommended that you stay away from normie apps.









  • Quick start guide:

    1. VPN, my recommendation: mullvadVPN. (You need this, because copyright trolls look for easy targets, such as people having their real IP exposed. You don’t want to be that, they won’t fight with the VPNs hosting partner, then with the VPN company, then with your ISP, just to get to you, they only extort people they can reach directly.)
    2. Download qBittorrent (FOSS) and install ALL search plugins
    3. Activate your VPN and search with the integrated search function, it will look through all sites you installed plugins for and present them to you directly in the programme.
    4. Enjoy a collection of TV and movies you actually own.
