Linux Desktop has only got better in recent years. I made the switch to Ubuntu ~5 years back and have the opposite problem now - switching back to Windows/macOS can be a buggy pain.

Proprietary apps are still a pain for switching, but helped that most of the main ones (office) have capable web variants.

MakeMKV is what I’ve been using as of late. Don’t know if it’s the go to but gets the job done in a nice, one file format.

They used to still be only a small percentage until the entire internet got completely decimated by ads in the past 5 years.

Do COPPA fines apply here?

British joining in on this too, after deciding to abandon the EU…

I’ve got one of these. Fantastic phone but the official OS was basically abandoned in terms of security updates. Need to check out custom ROMs.

I lost it at calling her Tomb lmfao

I’m actually using a Titan Pocket currently. Works well enough for me. The security updates are lagging behind that’s getting me considering switching back, but I’m otherwise cautious how I use it.

It’s a nice feeling device, and makes me wish they’d make more BlackBerry style phones with bigger displays and Android capability.

People see you whip the titan out and think “oh he’s doing that rollback technology thing”, then you use Android Pay and they really flip out lol.

Me and 8 gave me a good chuckle, great list.

Kept all mine, turned it into a Plex server w/o pirating, laughing in no monthly subs. Plus charity shops sell blurays for barely anything.

Across the pond in the UK they’re expanding ULEZ and this is a major sticking point. You need to upgrade to more fuel efficient cars, right when buying shopping is expensive enough. They want you to get new cars, and the majority cannot aford them.
