Maybe. Though I haven’t seen anything of that sort over the years. They’ve been around quite a while and long ago they removed all ads from their platform.

We don’t need this crap on Linux. Sleep is meant to be a low power mode where everything except ram is powered down, and you can pick up near instant where you left off.

I know others use Arabis(?) I think thats what it called.

You probably mean Anubis.

+1 for this.

People should stop using these ad and tracking apps disguised as some useful app.

Naomi’s advises are superb. Braxman’s I’d take with a hint of salt. They tend to have a point behind them though sometimes a bit light and he’s rather keen on selling his own products.

You do need a phone number to signup to Signal but you don’t need to share it with anyone. Just create a new username for each new person you want to add.

Non what so ever. I use LibreWolf with uBlock Origin.

That would be the Aeon.

Couldn’t agree more. For us Linux gamer there’s a set of scripts that enable FAF for us (haven’t tried).

Wiki at least says: “It has been under development since 1990 by the GNU Project of the Free Software Foundation”.

filen.io

Let’s see where this leads. They have not managed so far to get GNU/Hurd production ready in the 35 years it’s been in development.
