I think "reversed" and "opposite" makes no sense here.

Librewolf copies the Torbrowser or Arkenfox patches, maybe adding their own ones, maybe not. Arkenfox is a 1:1 copy of Torbrowser to my knowledge, without using private browsing.

As you dont have Cookie Containers, the "being more private" or "anti fingerprinting" is a very vague statement. If you use your browser for a single website then yes maybe.

This. Fixed it up

The article is very outdated and possibly not complete. ChromeOS uses Linux so you can assume it is very secure there.

I miss a debunk on the exact points by firefox devs.

But people everywhere told me madaidans article is not correct. Torbrowser also still doesnt use Chromium for various reasons. And that is the most security critical browser there is.

Strange, yes you are right

Classic

Ublue's

I hate apostrophes :/

Nobody asking themselves how they got all these details of that person?

Reddit doesnt require a full name.

If you do interesting stuff, use a good VPN. But those will also have to either delete their logs (Wireguard is actually worse here) or be brave.

Or Tor...

Librewolf uses Torbrowser configs, Mull uses the Torbrowser repo and entire config.

Torbrowser always uses the private browsing mode, which is really restrictive. Tabgroups do not work, cookies cannot be saved etc.

This makes MullvadBrowser way worse for daily browsing.

Torbrowser cannot use normal browsing mode, because they want to avoid saving data on the disk. Everything is in RAM.

Librewolf and Torbrowser both include hardening and privacy optimizations.

Kind of separately, but Librewolf, Mull (Android) often take the configs of Torbrowser.

So calling them opposite makes no sense. They may just leave out some settings.

Secureblue ships Chromium, is lead by a single person and does not care about privacy "if it leads to worse security" (i.e. preinstalling Chromium and removing Firefox, even though there is no evidence that Chromium is more secure, it may likely be less secure)

Well either uBlue's "variant focus" got too much or you are just really lazy

This has nothing to do with ADHD... mixing up stuff is just confusing people

A Therapist told me that there is a lot of nonsense on the web, especially in the AuDHD space, and yeah it tends to go in a "you are a scorpio, you do X" way

And way more reliability, even though it is pretty modified.

Stable is not equivalent to "works well". It is randomly frozen at some point, mostly not in contact with upstream devs, so you just have outdated packages.

OpenSUSE slowroll sounds like a way better model. Or maybe CentOS stream.

It is randomly frozen as not all developers follow Ubuntus release schedule. They just release when it is ready.

Stability means backporting tons of bugfixes to tons of small packages and libraries. I dont think Ubuntu does that for enough packages, best example Plasma 5.27 on Kubuntu. I have reported over 200 bugs I guess and most of the newer ones are just fixed in Plasma 6.

Flatpak for sure is a good way, and if a distro is stable, they should only install Flatpaks.

Fedora Atomic has no liveUSB

It is semi-rolling. They ship different point releases and kernels within a release

Laughing in kwin-wayland

In germany its free but you just dont get a place anywhere. Diagnosis maybe after a year, therapy never.

And you get a blood test to see you dont use Cannabis etc, because 1+1=2

Both have "a risk for phsychosis or shizophrenia", so combining will obviously lead to crazy dangers. Thats the state of science they are at.

Yes I think you mentioned the relevant points here. Ubuntu tests their preinstalled software, while there is tons more in the repos that is not as tested. Same with Mint.

And they backport only stuff they think is necessary. For example Plasma 5 is based on the EOL Qt5 and backporting things to Plasma 5 is nearly impossible as you need real Plasma devs and nobody really wants to do that.

Plasma 6 is really stable, 6.1 not so much, but the timing was not perfect. Simply because they do their release schedule as fixed as that.

It is a total pain if you simply want working software, as they may backport some stuff, but all the stuff not preinstalled, or that is very complex, will not get fixes.

This is the same with all stable distros, if the maintainers dont literally maintain all the software there is.

No, Fedora is semi-rolling with less random freezes. Regular Ubuntu is similar but just not Ubuntu please.

Fedora also had 13 months of support so staying on the older version gives an extra stability.

And then there is OpenSUSE slowroll, which is CI/CD with more testing

A yes, the fear of opensourcing.

Trust me, proprietary code is often total garbage because nobody looks at it.

Plan in a session each day and be next to her, just watching her.

That would be what helps me most, planning in a timespan and then having someone look at me to not fuck it up

There are Krita and Pinta too

I mean Android is not magic, but a huge step up from desktop Linux regarding security, minimalism, battery life, ...

They also just use an LTS kernel, and I even found a Vulkan package.

The simple, core principle, security without compromises, is not hard, everythig is there.

And at the same time you can fix many of the Google issues, privacy invasiveness, design that sucks...

I share the exact same experience with you.

I use the ublue kinoite-main base image, not one of their very opinionated variants. It is best as a base, better than Fedoras (even though you need to trust Github 100%)

config creep is solved only partly. I am currently overhauling the kind-of guide here

Local stuff in your home is persistent, and /etc is also persistent.

But we are working on that.

Bazzite has a ton of WINE stuff on the system, not really the "immutable small core" principle. At the same time they uninstall Firefox, while Flatpak Firefox does not support all things.

So I recommend to install Fedora Kinoite from the official website and follow the rebase guideline here at the bottom

Building something from scratch is really overwhelming, and you often pay a lot

True. Apple is straight up dystopia.

Very interesting project. Cage is a wayland kiosk, right?

But what about doing system updates and stuff like shutting down? KOReader doesnt have such an interface

Interesting on what distro and when did you try that?

I didnt know that it relied on XWayland but that seems outdated anyways

Very nice, thanks for the links.

Where do the sandboxing profiles come from? I suppose from the aisap repo?

Plasma 6?

Plasma 6?

I mean of course, they never shipped big parts of their orders but got the money anyways.

That company is fucked up completely.

A library is paid though.

Donate to your instance, and decentralize the Fediverse.

• proprietary server (snap store), unlike flatpak
• snapd only allows one server (but it is foss so you could just patch it), unlike flatpak
• nonexistent security on snap store, multiple times malware, unlike flatpak
• no sandboxing without apparmor and specific profiles, so not cross platform, unlike flatpak
• the system apps are also requiring apparmor, so not cross platform
• they lack granular permission systems afaik
• they concur with flatpak, which is horrible as we need a universal packaging format, not 3
• seemingly no reproducible builds?
• no separation between all, opensource, verified repo, unlike flatpak
• they pollute the mount list with all the loop devices

And people complain abour resource usage etc, but that is just separating apps from the system. Flatpak does the same.

In short: all are Crap, use UBlockOrigin

(ABP is worse, Adguard "intelligently shows ads", Ghostery is spyware)

We plan to run programmatic research to reduce risk in decision-making so that users benefit when our stakeholders translate user insights into product development.

What the hell is that supposed to mean?

Edit: I see the point of studies, which are not needed. But especially, feeding users stuff their stakeholders want, is a crazy thesis.

Their users are their biggest stakeholders, arent they? Or is it Google?

That phrasing tells me its Google.
