I think it will be very easy to find a host that federated from them, making it easy to mitigate the damage.

Never trust a rant from a person that can’t install Windows.

People who craft intentionally misleading titles with a qualifier at the end that diffuses the statement have been proven to be pedophiles, schwim says.

I disabled it on my phones. I’ve found it to be completely without value.

No, because I don’t live in a binary world where I have to pick one over the other.

“It happens all the time” and “they always do *” is also comically unhelpful and useless. I’m getting a pot/kettle vibe from those that seem to take offense at my comment.

I also use FF solely and have no slowdowns on YT. I guess they like my copy of the browser.

I’m sorry but I don’t see how that check is browser-specific. Is that part happening on the browser side?

Nobody can even state that it’s actually happening “for competitive browsers” as even Chrome users are reporting an unexplained lag/slowdown. At this point, it’s just wild speculation and bandwagoning.

My issue(I think) is a combination of games utilizing anticheat(I’ve not gotten a single one to work yet) and also trying to play non-new games that were not designed during the Steam push for compatibility. I can’t use linux to play the games I like to play so I use a Win host for gaming and to run my linux install in a VM on the second screen.

Few games? Man, you and I are definitely having a different experience.

I don’t think the issue is performance though. The unspoken part of this comparison is in bold:

“Linux vs Windows tested in 10 games. In the games we could find that work on linux, the performance was 17% faster on average. In all the rest of the games, Windows worked 100% better.”

I can’t say I don’t use Google as I own an unrooted pixel on the Fi network but I’ve done what I’m able to lessen the information given to them by stopping the use of the search engine, browser and sandboxing any Google pages in my FF browser. It started bothering me how much I was relying on one company for nearly everything online.

My next phone will likely be rooted and running a different OS.
