@piracy Do cracked apps still send data to Google/Android or they bypass them?

I was wondering if while using (trusted) cracked apps they still send data to Google, Android, Meta, etc. or to the app owner.

beta_tester,

Depends on the app and how it’s implemented but at least google (play store) knows that you’ve installed it and that you didn’t pay for the app on the app store

beta_tester,

sure,

I already liked fedora for choosing sane (imo) defaults for the most part. I got to know the atomic builds just a few weeks ago. The advantage the atomic versions have over the traditional builds are that they are reproducible which is huge advantage for maintainers. Hence, it’s not directly an advantage for me but reduced workload for others.

The update process is much easier than with workstation as you just have to restart the system “without having to update”. It’s like android in this case, you just restart and have an updated system. Moreover, I can just switch to another system underneath without breaking the rest of the system. Although it might be better to have an additional layer in between the base OS, the DE and (graphical) applications.

Moreover I really like the idea of having reproducible systems, i.e. I can setup a working system with e.g. distrobox and distribute it to others. I have not yet used this but I like the idea behind it. This is not distro dependent but the atomic versions made me aware of it.

And I appreciate that there’s always a working system. There are other ways that can ensure a working system but it works very well (so far) and is directly integrated into the OS.

beta_tester,

You can do the same with ublock :)

beta_tester,

That’s a very solid setup

What’s umatrix for?

beta_tester,

I don’t think it’s confusing. The first words are: “Microsoft Pluton prevented…”,

Maybe only because I knew what Pluton was.

beta_tester,

Yes, the smaller the project, the likelier I donate (more often)

beta_tester, (edited )

Why? Chromeos is linux and can play android apps. Can’t linux run android apps as well? Waydroid, etc.?

Genuine question

beta_tester,

Tldr.

Bt over tor is still not recommended

beta_tester,

Try to autoconnect to a vpn in GNOME, you can’t do it in the settings. I love KDE, I just wish it was a bit more beautiful sometimes.

beta_tester,
  • I don’t get the Q
  • maybe jellyfin.org/docs/general/server/media/movies/… ? I stopped trying to manage a library with mixed languages. German torrents always (most of the time) have the english audio as well. For english only, there’s a dedicated folder
  • audiobooks in english? abtorrents

They are fun and all but it’s free advertisement for them … They are fun and all but it’s free advertisement for them …

beta_tester,

Just use the killswitch feature of the OS

Maybe use a work profile

beta_tester,

Go into settings and look for “always-on vpn” in the settings for the vpn and then “block connections without vpn”

beta_tester,

Record with two devices, compare and strip everything away that they do not have in common

beta_tester,

Ever since I disabled every recommendation in libretube I don’t watch anything on youtube anymore because I have no fucking clue that it even exists.

[discussion]: regarding the best OS for a pirate

This post started out as a question, but throughout two days of googling it became this compilation of links. I will tell you everything worth mention that I found, share my plan with you, and expect some critics (for the infos of course, please not for the silly hyperactivity of my ADHD brain over such a trivial matter 🥲)....

beta_tester,

I expected a discussion about linux from the title not about which windows version.
