Never heard of that happening unless it was a battery issue

In that case I absolutely would recommend Peertub to you.

I do remember one app specifically called Aminoapps that did blocked tatanota emails but not proton mail. So maybe it’s just hit or miss on whether alternative email providers get banned.

Eh- I mean maybee that could be a reason, but Google has too much power and influence and takes advantage idk if that would be enough for me personally to stay but at the same time I can aknowledge that it could be a good reason to not leave.

I mean- I dont have a domain, been using proton mail and mail.com for the pass 6 years atleast with no noticable issues on multiple popular sites. Maybe you can explain that further maybe i’m not quiet understanding.

I know that ad free apps exist for Youtube however they probally won’t last long term. Ad blockers right now are the main target of google to rid of. Peertube being its own thing from Youtube and also federated will last longer then most sites trying to compete with Youtube as there are multiple hosts for different smaller sections of the service.

If you have a deep history with gmail then that could make it harder to to replace. It’s very true especially if from important positions you participated in, along with multiple accounts on it which I like to call leaving eggs all in one basket since they are all reliant on that account.

For people who arent quiet as invested in that, and just use it casually which is a pretty big percent could easily replace gmail with nothing to lose and those are the type of users I was thinking about when writing up this post. But I can agree with what you are saying here and that you have a good point.

Proton.me and mail.com seems to work on many websites including switch online, xbox/streaming services. Also I rarely see this happening can you name some examples that do this email provider blocking?

Seemed like people were uploading before youtube started paying people, so I dont buy that %100

Maybe I could meet you in the middle there because I can see that happening.

People all this stress can be avoided if more channels upload videos on peertube. U block origin wouldnt even be needed as generally no ads are on peertube.

I kinda guessed that was what you were saying.

I think they might had meant that people had been divided since before social media. To me it just seems they were keeping to the main topic of the post. So maybe they were debating that statement.

ah, makes sense now. I must had misunderstood the context. I do hear people all the time complaining about who owns the media and etc. So I was responding how I did by instinct. Yes we do need other voices in the news besides just them.

dispite common believe, you still have choices for news. however you can’t just sort them by the names outright anymore but by either who owns them, or which corperation owns them.

Maybe. Although the hill is a center leaning news site ranked by allsidesm not necessarily right leaning, although it wouldn’t hurt to look into the leanings of the university that did the actual survey.

It seems that some of the choices offered were pretty limited, seemed government was limited to it as government at a whole not specific sides of the government. That may had confused them even more and made them to beleive it was social media more than the government, and possibly why less people picked that choice. That or they liked what the government is currently doing and didn’t want to pick that choice because of how simplified the choice was.

pff, just power the PC off completely, that’l put it to sleep. Don’t trust that windows actually powers it off? Unplug the thing! While you are at it power off that phone of yours completely, that’l put the annoying notifications sounds and buzzing to rest.

We don’t really care about background notifications on a PC. on a cellphone when we are out, yes because that’s just how it is and it makes work easier. We just expect as humans that when we put the PC to sleep that it acts as if it’s off but just with a quick resume when we wake it up.

I will with you halfway through with this, here is how I view it.

If you have little experience with telling between safe sources and sketchy, then yes, stick with the defualt.

If ypuu know about some safe appstores or repositories then that’s when you could say you are qualified to make thes decisions. Like I know Fdroid is safer and better than the defialt on everyway for the users best interest, but if you dont know your sources then you should not sidelode untill you do know how to make good decisions.

That’s different then the owner off the defualt android appstore telling you. If a device manufactuer did say this, i’d question why.

Did google pay them to?? or more specific to your comment did microsoft pay them
