So their laptops were running Android?

Reading the article it was a closed source OS, with their own closed-source Linux-based kernel.

Buying from, and supporting the artist directly, IMO.

Many European metal bands host their own webshop selling their merchandise, records, cassettes and CDs; many small and independent musicians sell their songs on Bandcamp (US based website that does take a cut from each payment, 15% I believe goes to Bandcamp, so that is something to keep in mind)

I snorted when this was the only comment. They know what they're doing with that name.

Going by their phone number they're Italian, although I can't find the address they're registered to, on their webpage.

What metadata does XMPP leak? AFAIK only when a message was sent, roughly (in large increments) how large the message was, the server of the sender knows from who to which server, the server of the recipient knows from which server to who.
I find it strange that Signal somehow doesn't know when a message was sent, and from who to who; how would they ever make this possible?

Also, you say you have yet to find any other free service that collects as little data... How about most e-mail providers? Not Google and Microsoft of course, but most e-mail providers only need a name which can be made up as well. You hm also host your own email server, then you are in control. All of this is true for XMPP and Matrix, as well.

Agreed, I've noticed the same thing with even hardcover orders from them.

I once freed 28 GB using find ~/Downloads/ -mtime +30 -delete

Why does that surprise me, actually?

After checking a few more times I see the blue text “Bilbo” under the blue line, just right from the red one.

I need to sleep, but thank you internet stranger.

"You gotta recharge sometime"... You don't think other brands do EVs?

Wait, I'm dumb, what's the blue line?
