At this point it not about passive collection, corporations are going to extreme ends to get our data.

I am interested in what people are doing to enforce their privacy while using the web.
I have some things in place, looking to compare with the community.
(btw, I am new here, this is my first post. So uh… Hi )
I only use LibreWolf on my pc's and IronFox or Vanadium on my phone. All except Vanadium have uBlock Origin with all social media blocked. I also use Mullvad vpn with social media blocking at dns level. In addition where vpn is not configured I use Mullvad's dns with all content blocking enabled. Of course no Meta or another social media apps on my Graphene OS phone (except Mastodon and Lemmy). As a cherry on top I use a Linux based OS (OpenSuse Tumbleweed) on my computers primarily (some Windows usage for some gaming).
I game on Debian.
I game on Tumbleweed but on some rare occasions I use windows e.g. my gaming laptop doesn't have Linux.
Why not?
Haven't actually tried but I have bad experiences with Linux and dual graphics laptops.
Me too. I still can't get the Nvidia card to work on my Acer Nitro 5.
Had to upgrade to a better laptop when Dawntrail released on Final Fantasy XIV.
Kids want me to play Roblox.
Don't listen to them. I've tried it and it's full of brain rot, slop, microtransactions, and a lot of inappopriate content. It's not even privacy friendly.
TL;DR:
DON'T
I mean, those are all the things that they want out of a gaming experience.
nice. Im looking to make the transition to graphene OS. would go to linux daily driver if I can get away from MS Office. I do too much writing collaboration with others and it gets wonky going back and forth with office users. Though Denmark is saying they are ditching office so that might incentivize alternatives and such. exciting times.
Im currently working on a whole stack, so docker pi-hole with unbound using dns over tls, squid proxy with maximum privacy, FF fork with ublock, privacy badger, noscript. mullvad and/or tor depending on where and when im using it.
If you use Office 365 web version of Word and Excel, you can use that in a Linux browser; no Windows needed.
good point. not a huge fan, but better than no option at all. Actually thats probably the best option for now.
