Yeah, but fuck you too.

I don't think there are any services that can compare to YouTube in any way.

Technically, yes, most sites won't have such sophisticated logic. But any Google, Microsoft, or Meta service you use most definitely will.

I really liked CreepJS's "Visits" feature where it would show a counter for how many people have visited with exactly the same browser fingerprint (which would usually be 1 unless you were using Tor Browser or Mullvad Browser), but they seem to have removed it for some reason along with "Lies" and "Trust Score". You can still check it out here though to see just how much identifying information even a simple hobby project can gather in less than a second.

Waking up early still feels pretty shitty though, at least in the first hour. I sleep at 8PM and get up at around 4AM, so a full 8 hours, but it's still possible for me to just fall asleep again and wake up at 6AM. It is not that I prefer sleeping for 10 hours either, because I usually have a mild headache during the days in which I overslept, and if I sleep at 10PM I wake up at 6AM feeling pretty normal. My guess is that this may be because of the lack of light earlier in the morning, but who knows.

I've been looking into daylight simulation alarms just to test this, but I feel like they're a lot more expensive than they should be as LED lights on a timer (60USD).

Me too. Please.

It still does, but they did add a username system so you don't need someone's phone number to contact them.

The lack of PFS and 256bit encryption in Session is a little concerning, and one other advantage of SimpleX is that it has no unique identifiers at all while Session uses random IDs and Signal requires a phone number.

Please don't use Linux Mint with KDE, you will just get a much worse experience. Cinnamon is very customizable. I don't know what the OP means by "layout", but if they're talking about the taskbar that can be customized too.

I would also use Signal instead, but Session's situation is not that bad unless one needs to accommodate the CIA or Mossad as part of their threat model, in which case I think SimpleX would be a better option. This is also in the article you posted:

Edit: I didn't notice that the original commenter had said they "switched from Signal" at first, which is definitely worse.

Try a different VPN server if you get the "Sign in to confirm you're not a bot" error. If you're using Mullvad VPN, the Netherlands Amsterdam 203 server should work.

That likely makes you easier to track. User agents don't really matter all that much if an advanced tracking script is used. When your IP address is the same, your browser engine is the same, your canvas data stays the same, your window size stays the same, your operating system stays the same, then they will just know that you also use an extension that makes your user agent not reflect your system and track you based on that too.

Use Mullvad Browser without changing anything important (change the default search engine at most) and preferably use a proper VPN to actually avoid tracking during regular internet usage. Or use LibreWolf to at least fool naive scripts.

I would suggest reading this too:

It's based on Ubuntu 22.04 (the Ubuntu release of April 2022) so it's really out of date.

Well, if you're a leftist you can memorize it with "シ looks to the right and right means death 死(shi)". I'm not really political but it's what I did anyways.

No, it says ホシイ(hoshii) which means "wanting/desiring" and キュウカ(kyuuka) which means "holiday/time off". So something along the lines of "I want time off.".
