was checking my old favourite posts and found this.
Currently on a very locked down version of firefox but also windows, though I’ve been experimenting with mint on an old laptop in prepration for a switchover.
this is BSD erasure
I’m right between conservative and paranoid :) and want to stay there.
Alternate title: The Tech Burnout
Hell that’s me, 1:1!
Hey twin, lol
This is 100% me
Yes. I like this way better than “tech conservative “
Well except for the Arch part. I’m not a masochist.
Currently at the crossroads from newborn paranoid into either this or tech paranoid, it’s so joever
“Has hundreds of messaging apps their friends won’t use.”
Got caught.
Hey, someone in the friend group has to test the apps ahead of time for when they all inevitably wake up and delete Discord, I can guide them to matrix or SimpleX! This is exactly how it will go right?
Guys… where’d you go?
Guilded
You know the roblox chat app
Hi do you need new friends who have the same 100 messaging apps ?
This is me
“Uses MullvadVPN on lockdown mode” Literally me because seflhost with a router that doesn’t have NAT loopback support. Gotten tired of using workarounds that eventfully broke. lmao
hey i use librewolf and ironfox
hey i use arch btw:3
hey i used arch btw but now i’m sticking with linux mint debian edition
Fluffychat gang
I live between the tech conservative and tech paranoid with a splash of distro hopping.
Same, but I stay on Arch btw.
I cant believe i have been called a conservative
I think we’re all in between conservative and newborn paranoid … for me, I love alpha/nightly, which LW doesn’t have, so FF it is. But I cope by telling myself that a properly configured FF is just as good as LW. And Signal is better than needing to use WhatsApp with family members.
Yeah, I guess so. The slippery slope is real though.
So what am I?
Someone who even it broke couldn’t fix it because it’s an Apple.
Tbf, I’ve never had an Apple product break from something other than water damage (RIP iPhone 5S). I mostly meant that regrading software and replacing devices when the old one still works.
Between tech normie and tech conservative
…In need of a hug?
i use that voyager
Waterfox ? Why ?
It’s on the privater side but runs well and support Firefox extensions.
Is it firefox with better privacy settings ?
It is its own browser, but it uses Gecko.
TempleOS is the one true legitimate operating system
It is definitely one of the operating systems
I’m not sure I like being labeled “conservative”…
Conservative doesn’t mean braindead.
It means keeping things the way they are. Like conserving the rain forest.
Oh I know this in my head. It’s the negative connotation that’s in my heart that’s the problem.
This meme is so private that it doesn’t even show up on Mbin.

The FSF member does not use libreboot anymore (not entirely free on some boards for a while now). See GNU Boot!
GNU Boot is barely maintained. I would use Canoeboot instead, it follows the same philosophy GNU Boot does, and is way more up to date.
Well in fact, that’s not true they follow the same philosophy. See the GNU Boot talk at 38c3, but tldw is that canoeboot advocates for Libreboot and against RYF and so on. Btw, GNU Boot maintainers are quite active (see also the repo, I’m one of them).
GNU Boot is not against canoeboot as such, but Leah Rowe hasn’t the same philosophy (and does not follow FSDG)
