Wow, I didn’t think of that. Thank you!

A dispassionate authority is more effective at protecting local communities from predators, but at what price? Unfortunately that dispassionate authority also has little compassion for the poor and marginalized people it rules and even less accountability to them. I’m also more afraid of the Orwellian police state being proliferated by the marriage of federal law enforcement and multinational corporations than criminals in my neighborhood. Those people breaking the law in my neighborhood probably need better access to mental healthcare instead of long sentences in federal prisons handed down by said dispassionate authority.
Same playbook used throughout history, we need to make you safer by taking away your right to privacy and access to communities you identify with. Without the LGBTQ+ community center in my hometown I doubt I would have survived young adulthood. That was a physical space funded by a non-profit, now that so much of our access to community is online the authoritarians from both parties in the US can just remove communities they don't like assisted by legislation like this.
I've had good experience with LibreWolf, but disabling the resist fingerprinting is QoL compromise with privacy easily accomplished in the settings.
With all do respect friend, I'm assuming most of us here that really care about privacy ditched Gmail very early in our privacy journey. I think virtually every policy Google enforces, including phone validation has some element of data collection in mind. We can debate whether providing the phone number is an information grab or a security measure, but I'm fairly certain it's both to some degree. If one cares enough about privacy to post in this community please start looking for a privacy respecting email provider, then start abandoning Google services like the plague at a pace you can tolerate. Don't move too fast on your journey, the inconvenience is rough, but liberating your digital life is priceless one step at a time.
Stripe is one of the largest payment providers on the Internet, they recommend hCaptcha, not Alphabet's reCAPTCHA in their docs, so it's obviously a choice. Please don't proclaim to be "Extremely concerned" with customer privacy and choose a service provided by a data harvesting advertising company to save money when a privacy preserving option is available.
I really want to love my PineTab 2 and I'm hoping for kernel updates to unlock more hardware potential. The Wi-Fi doesn't work at all in my experience and the touchscreen feels very cheap (usually must tap my finger several times before it registers the touch).
I'm pretty lame and just run USSEP, Cutting Room Floor, SMIM, Immersive Citizens, Alt Start, Rich Merchants, etc.. When I try to go nuts with Mods I spend all my time modding and never actually get into the game. I wish I could find some community advice on minimal mods. When I "used to" look on the skyrimmods reddit most ppl seemed more interested in how many mods they could get, like quantity over quality.
You'd be better off using the Windows version on Linux through Wine. Is there an app specific to MacOS that isn't available on Windows? Honestly, at that point I'd get a Linux laptop and just use an iPad for the proprietary MacOS app if I couldn't get it working on Linux. There is a Ubuntu snap package that spins up MacOS in a virtual machine as well.
Skyrim, grab a few new mods and the game is practically new to be again!

I didn’t know it was a Cloudflare site, but I was happy to see it’s not running Google’s hardware fingerprinting Ajax scripts that I dislike more than Cloudflare services.
