how can you even harden a proprietary walled garden

hellfire103 ,

There are ways. Privacy Guides has a page on it. I also use NextDNS, which has a blocklist for iDevices, so Apple can’t track me (afaik).

I’d rather have an Android, though. Either DivestOS or /e/. I’m just waiting for my iPhone to burn out first.

You print and mail your data? You could really cut out a step by getting their fax number.

Make sure to page them first so they know to go pick it up.

This is a bait to collect technical data from privacy-oriented users

Look, they just list all their specs!

Zuck: Just ask.

Are you privacy oriented or are you a mark who doesn’t realize what their time is worth? Post your absurd setups here so I can expand my database.

sugar_in_your_tea ,

Yes.

DragonConsort ,

Love the fact that even when committing to the bit about being anti-privacy they still know the internet is functionally unusable without an adblocker

Also I’m about to say something ignorant as hell but: Isn’t a Browser the same thing as a Search Engine?

rayf ,

Nope, Browser is the tool, the software to reach internet. Like a phone. Search Engine is more like the phone book of URL reference. And you use it with keywords

Noel_Skum ,

The browser is the software to use the internet and a search engine essentially scans the entire accessible web for the words you type in to it and shows you where they are.

odium , (edited )

Browsers are the app you click on: google chrome, firefox, Microsoft edge, safari

Search engines are a website you go to on that app. If you type something in the top bar of your browser that is not a link, browsers will automatically enter that into a search engine.: google search, Bing, duckduckgo, ecosia, startpage

ILikeBoobies ,

Browser is an app on your computer

Search engines are apps on other people’s computers that you access via a website

Is that the guy that has nothing to hide?

Who’s whining about rising subscription prices in times of lesser quality in movies and tv shows?

Who’s whining about not being able to get a raise because “we can’t afford to give everyone raises in this economy”?

Who’s whining because insurances are so expensive and never pay up?

Who has given up both control over his own information and control over where to get his knowledge from?

Who can no longer own media, or cars, or appliances without paying a monthly subscription that “this time for sure not getting worse over time”?

Who has given up his freedom?

Why 5 instances of Searxng? Do you get very different results with each? I pretty much always use the same one…

Just for when one is down or is blocked by a search engine. Happens sometimes and I have 5 bookmarked
