Anyway to make it open faster on Mac?

According to another post here, is done so the kindle doesn't overwrite the cover of each book

Very hard to use for not techy types

And get in the habit of starting the timer before you put the pizza on the oven

So who did they pay? The families? The police? The politicians? All?

Similar experience with Voyager and Jerboa on Android specially when there was an influx of users. It was easier to login late at night.

How much is it? And do you use a VPN while connecting to it? Is it like a private torrent tracker?

None that are free! Expressvpn is a good option

Is usenet worth it?

Does pihole affects your internet speed?

Lol true but teaching people better ways is like swimming against the tie. Heck is even hard with people close to me !

And on your phone as well!

An app "to rule them all" would need to be multiplatform

Even if you get them to care once you show them all they need to do to have a shred of privacy they shrug say something along the lines of "well I don't have anything to hide anyways" and go back to their merry way. The path of least resistance will always win sadly
