Cromite.

Snappier than anything else (With real dark mode, adblocker, anti fingerprint and great security).

Never could get used to Firefox on mobile how hard I try.

On Desktop, it’s Linux with Librewolf.

I bought a minisforum um890 recently.

How do you like it? I’m planning of buying one and putting Proxmox on it.

Try Cromite.

Good dark mode on webpages. Secure (chrome based) and privacy hardened with adblocker and anti- fingerprint.

No Google crap in it.

I’m in the same boat.

Have the 3600 with a 1050ti (!), and its does a good job when I play the 2-3 games I like to play. 32gb for my apps and docker containers. Plenty.

I see no reason to upgrade.

It has always been like this for me. Sticked to a platform until it died and never upgraded (OK ram maybe) until I was forced to.

More importantly, Meta also has the encryption keys of any WhatsApp conversation.

It’s like a fucking META password manager that unlocks your vault… (…as in your WhatsApp conversations) and locks it when they are done spying, whenever they feel like. Repeatedly.

You have no control, as in a secure private conversation unless you have the keys on your device.

Correct you are sir.

Have they not heard of selfhosting?

Well, they partly took that “feature” away because people thought they were sending encrypted SMS messages which is not true. False sense of security.

They just took the secure high road and ditched SMS. It also made the app leaner with a smaller attack surface.

I think they did the right decision. Signal is the secure choice for the masses.

Having said that, I’m using Molly-Foss as it has less footprints, no Google messaging framework, leaner than Signal, with no crypto payment, and an encrypted database at rest.

Shit!

I came here to say AI, which I’m not allowed to.
