“Convenience” as in there is no need to host anything? May be, but, yet again, I would like to know the exact physical location of my passwords, otherwise I’m not saving them there. Apart from that, I don’t think there are any more “benefits”.
KeePass or something similar. Self-hosting your passwords is the only way, anything that uses servers that are not controlled by you is a no-go, in my opinion, no matter how secure your client is.
Pay with Monero, set up a VPN, buy a phone specifically for the service. I doubt you can get any more anonymous than that. Cellular networks are by default monitored by governments, there is nothing a provider can do about it. But encrypting the traffic and getting a new phone should make that type of monitoring relatively useless. And if you never give your identity to the provider, they simply can’t know who you are.
I guess I’ll just add you guys to the “overzealous Witcher fans” and consider my point valid.
Yea, Croatia is the only place it got widely used. Is it some kind of historical elective course in Croatian schools? Been a coupe of times in Croatia, never seen Glagolitic in the wild, though. Maybe wasn’t looking good enough.
There is no single person responsible for Cyrillic script. It is mostly believed to be created by mixing and changing Greek and Glagolic scripts by the scholars of Preslav Literary School, which was indeed in Bulgaria. After a while, Peter the Great changed it a lot. And then Stalin stomped out almost all the deviations in the usage of the script.
The last part is mostly why it is considered Russian. A lot of languages suffered because of Moscow just forcing them to use the version of Cyrillic that Russians were using.
It’s a dead script that was not that common in the first place, in Kievan Rus’ it was even used as a form of encryption in XI—XVI centuries for how little spread it was. It is also very different from modern Cyrillic. So, saying “most Slavs don’t know how to read it” is a bit of an understatement. Noone knows how to read it, apart from some linguists and overzealous Witcher fans.
Nah, Georgian is arcs and circles everywhere, like this: ეს ქართული დამწერლობაა.
Maybe because it alters your maximized resolution, which makes you easier to identify? But that sounds like a bit of a stretch to me.
While Apple’s products indeed are a bit less than compatible with privacy, it does not mean the owner of such products can’t care about it. Maybe they just recenty got into it, or have to use their products for some Apple-only feature that is essential for them.
If you want to try a simpler MOBA, try Heroes of the Storm. The game does not get any love from Blizzard anymore, but out of all the MOBA’s I know, it has the least minimal knowledge required to play.
MOBA as a genre didn’t come from WC3. There were quite a lot of predecessors to DotA, both in WC3 itself and in first StarCraft, namely Aeon of Strife is believed to be the first popular MOBA custom map out there.
Blizzard didn’t decide that quirks of WC3 engine are dumb. Yes, they wanted to make a simpler MOBA, but the main reason for lack of funny stuff from WC3 is that they used Galaxy engine for the game, the same one StarCraft 2 was built upon.
And HotS feels less complex not because of Galaxy’s vs WC3’s quirks (the former has plenty, too), but because of lack of gold and shop, shared experience and an actual tutorial at the beginning of the game.
I don’t care about that, you said:
Vivaldi was set as default in Manjaro Linux
And it’s not true.
It was set as default for Cinnamon distribution, which is not even maintained by Manjaro developers, it’s a community managed distribution.
So, it’s default for Cinnamon distribution. That’s like saying Amazon AppStore is default for Android just because some manufacturers install it by default. Consider reading the article before quoting it, please.
Excuse me? I switched to Manjaro with Xfce about 3 months ago, and if I wasn’t high at the time and remember everything correctly, the default web browser was simply absent. Which is an excellent choice, in my opinion.
You can actually use it without giving it contacts permission, but you’ll have to add people via short links, like wa.me/(number)

Well, if you stop listening to people who think it’s a way to get really rich really fast (which it obviously isn’t), cryptocurrencies are quite useful. International transfers are so much cheaper and easier with them.
Ducks are learning to gaslight people. Fascinating.
As far as I know, there is no way around making a backup. Titanium Backup may help with moving your apps, you’ll probably have to deal with other files with your favourite file manager.
That’s some good data! I’m mostly interested in filtering by Linux support and latency/accuracy measurements. Some of them are very helpful, thank you!
