Just finished reading the article. The ending is saddening :(

“We have no expectation that these elections will lead to a fundamental change in Iran’s path or greater respect for the human rights of citizens. As the candidates themselves have said, Iran’s policy is determined by the leader.”

Glad to see him elected. I know Khomenei is still very strong in the government, but people say that president has solid impact in election of next person to Khomenei’s position once he is dead. And he is 85. So maybe there might be hope?

Wishing all the best to all iranians <3

People living in EU. You guys are lucky. These cookie banners and stuff behave differently there because EU forces the reject all button

Or GrayJay. They have the app on f-droid too. It aggregates almost every video sharing websites. YouTube, twitch, rumble, odysee etc.

wow. I’ll look into this, but last time I tried, that VM discovery thing made it unavailable to setup on linux. The remote desktop app shows available VMs after you authenticate with MS account. This most likely is done deliberately to prevent us from using linux.

At the place I work at, we all are given Azure Virtual Desktops, which we use for everything. I’m working remotely from another country, so there is damned input lag too. Copy/paste, any data transfer is disabled too.

The worst part is we need to use “Remote Desktop” app to connect to our VMs, and it is available for EVERY platform except linux. Like they got browser client, windows, mac os, android, iOS. BUT NOT FOR LINUX. So I use VirtualBox to open windows machine, and use that to connect to VM.

This is sad :(

Yep I know the GrapheneOS. My plan is to use my phone for a bit (it is not that cheap in Azerbaijan 😄 ) and then switch to graphene.

Well, good luck to both of us!

Holy shit you did it! Congrats man…

I couldn’t do the transition to Signal because of the family/friends. And the LineageOS thing, I couldn’t do that to my brand new Pixel7, lol. But others are pretty much done at this point. Thanks for PrivacyGuides, didn’t know that!

Unfortunately, there are the ame stuff about Firefox too. Mozilla Foundation is such a corrupt organization with extreme shady finances.

Foundation’s main income is royalties by google: 567M per year.

Donations: 7M (which almost goes to the CEO’s bonuses)

the CEO gets 700K salary and 4.6M bonuses. Lmao.

I’d suggest, using Firefox but not donating to them.
