Is there any modern day android phones that work without the battery. I feel like they'd probably run POST checks to make sure there's a battery inside. Maybe fairphoness?

I moved from gmail. Best thing to do is use an email aliasing service like anonaddy, all my aliases forward to a Tutanota email, but if Tutanota decides to do something drastic, I'm able to change where each email address points to.

It also introduced me to the JSR soundtrack, which I still listen to today

I see, thank you for bringing this to my attention. I see a investigation is ongoing so I do hope NRB and the crew get this issue sorted.

I've heard, haven't got around to it yet

Interesting, I haven't heard anything about that. I haven't been following them for long. Could I get some more info about that?

Honestly, its personal preference, there's different forks of each, base Firefox is good, if you want a more private fork try Fennec or Mull. With chromium the only two ive heard good privacy things about is Brave and Cromite (a fork of Bromite, a project that looks like it got discontinued as there hasn't been an update since last December). Honestly try both and see which you prefer.

Sorry, I just assumed you were asking about android specific apps. For Apple, Safari is decently private, Apples strong suit is that everyone knows Apple hate sharing things, so while you can't be sure about how much apple collects, you know they're not giving data to 3rd parties. For computer I'd say base Firefox, (or Librewolf if your okay with the lack of auto updating) or Brave.

I can't find the newsletter/blogpost but I did read that fairphone are apparently looking at making their earbuds more repairable than they are currently, which is good.

I have WF-1000XM3's right now that are still running fine, dont really use them much so the battery degradation is a non issue for me at the moment, but when it is I'm happy enough to attempt a battery replacement when the time comes.

I hope Madison is in a good, safe work environment now. The few episodes she was in were amazing, such a likeable, funny person. Stay safe out there.
