Thanks for the reply. I've been using my new kz's for a few weeks now pretty much every day for a few hours for music and they sound really good. Although I'm no audiophile. Before I just wasn't putting them in my ear far enough so all the base was leaking out the sides and all I could hear was top treble.

Yeah your right although in Australia at least, the number of non major party seats are steadily increasing, but again that might change since the current two major parties are pushing through as many laws as possible that make it harder for minorities to have a chance in an election.

Why us mobile data such a privacy concern and wifi is so much better? I understand using standard calls and text is bad but if you use mobile data and not your phone number whats the difference between that and public wifi?

The problem with American democracy is the voting system. A party that isn't either thre democrats or the republicans will never win because people know if they vote for anything else there vote will be pointless.

America needs preferential voting but will never implement it because it would mean the two party system will be demolished (which is in neither of the two party's best interest.)

I get the controversy about the CEO being controversial but the services that proton make are still very good for the most part. And since they're open source and encrypted you don't need to trust proton anyway (aside from the VPN).

I don't recommend bazzite. I am using bazzite right now it is great for gaming. But it is a nightmare to install any software via the terminal often times you have to use a virtual environment and even that doesn't work very well.

If your a little familiar with fedora then it is a very good distro still and it has a kde veriant. (take my advice with a grain of salt I am pretty new to linux as well)

After trying out many different app launchers on f-droid Kvaesito is what I found to be the best. Kvaesito is very good and is what I use it allows you to swipe down and eminently start searching for apps.

My biggest problem with it (and it's a big one) is ocasionally it will just freeze and stop working until I lock the phone and turn it on again. (maybe you won't have this problem just try it out)

I honestly don't see the big deal with people hating on proton. It's still open source it's still encrypted and doesn't mine your data that seams to check most of the boxes for me. The only problem I had with it was the default main client which shows upgrades to go unlimited all the time but I just use Thunderbird now.

Not sure, I've never used session but I think less tech savvy people would want to use signal because it is similar to Whatsapp, which they are used to.

Fare enough. I can finally get rid of one drive from my Samsung phone!

Cryptomator is open source.

Fair point actually. I didn't think of that.
