Google has a VPN service now
  • Hasn't this been around for a while? I've had the option on my phone since last year. And while Google isn't exactly trustworthy, it's better than some of the shadier free options out there.

    It's fast and it's accessible for non-techy people. Certainly better than using an unsecured network with no protection at all.

    Elon Musk Rebranded Twitter as 'X.' Users Immediately Rejected the Change
  • On mastodon, someone created a bot that can mirror anyone's tweets. Just take their Twitter handle and append "@bird.makeup". There's a little jank, but it made the switch a lot easier for me.

    There's another one that does specific sports-related accounts under sportsbots.xyz and works very well.

    Every economist on Mastodon just had their anonymity compromised by hackers from Yale University 🍿🍿🍿
  • I have a hard time taking anyone seriously who uses "cucked" in a tagline. This "article" is unreadable with embedded posts every other sentence

    What I could make out says that someone owns a mastodon instance and another site attempted to link users who came from the same IP address. Is there anything more to this?

    Bitwarden or Proton Pass
  • That's a good point, thanks for explaining. Something I try to remember is that you not only have to trust the company who's managing your data, but you also have to trust them to protect it from bad actors.

    I'm trusting Bitwarden for now, but eventually I'd like to move to a self-hosted option like Vaultwarden. I think that's the best way to go if you're confident in administering it.

    Bitwarden or Proton Pass
  • I use random passwords for every account and using a password manager is the best way I've found to manage that. Is there another method that you prefer?

    What are you using for photo storage and organization?
  • I'm a recent Immich adopter, but one thing that seems to be missing compared to Google photos is the ability to manually backup by picking and choosing individual photos. Am I missing something or can you only do "all or nothing" with folder backups?

    Best version of cod zombies?
  • If you have PS Plus, Cold War is one of the free games this month. While some people prefer the more classic style, definitely don't sleep on this one. As a bonus, all the dlc content is free in the post-bo4 games.

    Black ops 3 is also a great choice, just look into the dlc options before purchasing (it's all good, just deciding on a bundle will save some money). The PC version also benefits from steam workshop support, there's a lot of great original maps and even remakes of some classic ones.
