If you’re looking for an EU alternative to AzireVPN since they’ve now sold to a US company (why, hello, Trump presidency, how goes?), see Mullvad VPN (@mullvadnet).
@starlabssystems That's disappointing. I was getting all excited that it was back in stock. I will wait patiently for the full real announcement and it's really in stock.
Does this mean the Star Fighter is now available? But what/why is that wait time so long. @starlabssystems

@aral Small Web will be a game changer over the Big Web. Once it's full developed and adopted as a standard alternative products/services vs the Surveillance capitalism mainstream web.
@aral Fair enough. Just thought I mention it since Cosmic is a brand new DE made from scratch. Not sure if will make a different but hear a post from their blog. About the updates and features for alpha 3 of Cosmic.
@starlabssystems Hopefully it will be huge upgrade over the previous one. Hardware and privacy wise.
@aral The just add screen reader support with their recent alpha version. If that changes anything.
@aral I know your not a big fan of System 76. But what do you think about Cosmic as a new Linux DE?

@aral Both are the same level of evil at this point. And can't be trusted anymore.
@starlabssystems Any plan to bring the Star Fighter back in stock or is it permanently sold out?
@aral @starlabssystems This device reveal at Akademy between the collaboration between
