Does bluesky have ads or collect personal data?

Thanks for the useful info. Still, I don’t think I want to fool with it until it’s available via GUI. That’s just me.

And I hope you are right about the rest being quicker.

But they have historically moved pretty damn slow

I’m sure my command line game is weak. Do you have a solution for connecting to Bluetooth and for timing out to login screen and blanking it after a certain period?

Exactly. I could use it as my daily if the settings panel was more complete.

I agree

I couldn’t even connect Bluetooth until I switched to Gnome again

Not in the long view it wouldn’t be that bad but we’ve seen other projects take so many years. Look how long it’s taken Wayland.

That’s my plan. I’m back on Gnome until feature parity.

I’m just afraid it’s gonna be another 2 years before it’s ready for everyday use

It’s invite only now?

It’s pretty private but when I uninstalled the community was getting sparse and notifications were slow. Might be better or worse these days.

I’m talking about previewing PDFs, mp4s, and photos in the finder by selecting the file and hitting the spacebar.

And Linux really needs an app like Preview too.

I use both Mac and Pop!_OS (Gnome) and I like and dislike both. MacOS has a great qulcklook that I miss in Gnome. Sushi almost corrected that oversight but it hasn’t worked right for me in a couple of years now. I also like Mac’s useful icon shortcut in the window title bar.

Gnome’s extension system is a clusterfuck, but at least I can decide how windows function, unlike Mac.

Ok, I’ve now had time to check this out. Android Firefox is set to strict Enhanced Tracking Protection which says offers fingerprint protection. If that is capping my refresh rate, then I can’t see it. Scrolling is smooth.

In contrast, Mull is distractingly flashy when scrolling. There is absolutely something different going on here.

Ok, that actually sounds encouraging to me. Honestly, on Android Firefox I don’t see the option for resist fingerprinting. I am using Strict Enhanced Tracking protection but that isn’t affecting refresh. What am I missing?

Does Firefox standard fingerprint resistance include the refresh rate? Because I use Firefox over mull on Android because of the drastic difference when scrolling.

Those are the particular interactions for which I have used usernames. People I know have me in contacts. Also, iirc, if I change usernames in the middle of a conversation that conversation is able to continue until I delete it. Plenty of time to pass on a new name if desired.

And that is exactly why I find it unusable. I have a 120 Hz phone slowed down to a hideous 60 Hz. This is why use Firefox instead of mull.

I don’t disagree with you either. But I think that when people give their phone number to a business they are often unaware of all of the nefarious ways it will be used, whether by ignorance or deception.

My point is just that replaceable usernames are perfect for random people you meet IRL or on the Internet because it’s minimal trouble to disconnect permanently when the time comes.
