Okay, time for a new #poll. How many different #web #browser do you use across all your devices? IE, #phone, #tablet, #laptop #computer, #desktop, etc.
And I mean all different browsers: #Chrome (and chrome variants), #Edge, #Safari, #Firefox (and Libre Wold, Seamonkey, etc.), #Vivaldi, #Opera and all others.
As always: please boost so we get some really good data.
Nice to see Firefox nightly pick up support for 2-finger swipes under #Wayland โ progress! https://www.omglinux.com/firefox-two-finger-swipe-back-coming-soon/
Bitwarden offers a convenient way to generate both anonymous email addresses and unique #passwords for ultimate security with ease: https://bitwarden.com/blog/add-privacy-and-security-using-email-aliases-with-bitwarden
I was thinking about this (https://www.andy.works/words/the-most-satisfying-checkbox) blog post about adding "juice" to products. Instead of thinking about juicing something, my instinct was to think about how to make it completely over-dramatic. A file compression utility:

@nitrokey I can't seem to get past this while trying to sign up for NitroChat. I don't know why. ๐ ๐ค
I have to say that I am a little disappointed with #LibremOne. It was once supposed to be a unified ecosystem of privacy-oriented services but now I feel it has fallen into obscurity and a general lack of maintenance.
Although it has been my gateway into the #Fediverse and #Matrix, I think it's now time for me to move on. I really hope @purism would be able to sort out the issues with this service because I honestly think it's a brilliant idea.
Sorry, Tux. Never met a cheese I didn't like, but I can't say the same for Linux distros ๐

Give up Linux for the rest of your life or Cheese? ๐ง

Thanks to @gamingonlinux, I was able to switch to a self-hosted setup as my backup solution. #Syncthing is really amazing.
@thelinuxEXP It seems someone at ZDNet watches your channel! ๐ They appear to have taken your advice on recommending 'desktops', not distros.

This. No one is ever saying GNU/Linux . And then you'd have to add all the other projects that are as important, if not more than the GNU tools. Everyone knows that when you say "Linux", you mean the entire OS, based on context, everything else is pedantic.
RT @jason_techstuff@twitter.com
The word "Linux" has entered into the English language meaning a complete Unix-like operating system based on the Linux kernel.
