I remove defender on my installs as it’s resource heavy and it doesn’t provide me any additional security that I require. I don’t download any software to the PC aside from the run-of-the-mill apps, so I don’t need Defender constantly scanning my system and files.

I don’t replace the anti-virus with anything. You can use the Windows Malicious Software Removal Tool (MSRT) to scan files if needed but I haven’t needed it yet. For a firewall I use Simplewall, which is a fantastic lightweight FOSS app I recommend to everyone

It’s been a long time since I tried, but I tried to install Atkinson Hyperlegible on my android and it wasn’t possible without rooting the phone. Your manufacturer may have a way to add fonts, but for Samsung I was limited to downloading them through their Galaxy store, which had no fonts I wanted

Oh hell yeah I use Atkinson Hyperlegible everywhere. There is also Atkinson Monolegible for a monospaced font so you arent stuck using Consolas

Based Doug Ford was not on my 2025 bingo card.

Oof that’s a challenge, but one can assume they’ve grown quite a bit as a studio and are up to taking on the task. I wish them luck!

Try a less popular VPN server by your provider. Sometimes I have to use Uzbekistan to get Reddit and other sites to allow me on

Michigan, a swing state, is in the crosshairs as well. They already have frequent major outages in the Detroit metropolitan. I don’t think this will help.

Tor. Anything short is freely giving your data away. If you’re looking for something that isn’t based on Gecko or Chromium there is the DuckDuckGo browser, which is WebKit. I can’t attest to how good their privacy policy is though as I have no idea.

I used a Jelly pro for two years as a daily driver. Smaller than a credit card

With good reason too. None of them have faced any consequences yet, and supporters who did are pardoned

Tor/Mullvad are the only acceptable options if you genuinely want the best for your privacy. Mullvad browser is a bit less of a hassle than Tor but not by much. If adamant about staying away from Gecko (Firefox) and Chromium browsers then WebKit forked browsers are sort of the last options.

At this point I’m beginning to look at going online as something that is inherently dangerous (for lack of a better word) and that needs to be done with care. There is no meaningful way to stay private anymore, and by connecting and interacting you are always painting a target on your back with long-lasting consequences that we can’t imagine yet. It’s not looking great right now, my dudes.

It took me this long to realize that trump wears that same arrangement of suit colors everywhere because it’s red, white, and blue 🤦‍♀️ JD Vance has started exclusively wearing it too I think

That was a great explanation, much appreciated thank you!

Thank you for telling me what the Republican leadership is doing.

What are YOU doing?

It’s not stopping the far-right, don’t let it stop you!

Surely it’s less work to maintain security patches for a few prior versions of windows than it is to indefinitely maintain backwards compatibility
