If you want something that’s simple, fire and forget. You can try PersonalDNSFilter.

Parental control software like Adguard or Adguard DNS family protection, filter out NSFW content like this website. A website doesn’t even need to do a thing for it to work.

If I have learned anything about safety features. They probably do.

basic common sense security features are such a huge improvement.

Can you list some common sense security features?

Well, you don’t need to switch. But, you can help your friends and family switch by setting up Firefox with Ublock-Origin.

If they see the benefits. They will stick

I quite enjoyed reading their in-depth tech coverage. Especially, in the early days when theyvcovered smartphones. There won’t be a 2nd anandtech in history for a long time to come.

They should release their articles as a torrent to conserve the long history of anandtech.

You know we had to :}

Do you know anything about financial markets?

I’m at a beginner level in Investments and stock market.

Study and you’ll understand everything you could do with it.

I’m already learning about Investments and stock market. Maybe, once I finish that I could consider this. But, I don’t see much value in crypto so won’t bother.

Perhaps, if my perception changes in the future I could reconsider. Just not in the near future.

I never understood the crypto hype. There was even an article by protonmail detailing its history and all. Yet, I remain oblivious.

That would be a liability, and they would go after the parent company crying foul play.

That’s Google’s version of android. Most OEMs still have the single tap internet toggle.

It depends on the app in question and how powerful your smartphone is. On flagship smartphones and well optimised apps there’s zero lag. On midrange smartphones and lower you may notice that on some heavy apps.

So, you should be fine as long as you get a current generation upper midrange or flagship smartphone.

Typical apple.

What add-ons in particular made you make the change?

Maybe your install is bugged. Try clearing the cache and a app restart if that doesn’t fix the issue. Uninstall and reinstall firefox (backup your data 1st before).

Firefox has and is buggy on android. You may need to occasionally restart it once a while. It will continue to be improved. But, that may take time. Like the increased extensions which took years after the rewrite.

Turn off all related functions for photos in the Google photos app and delete any backed up pictures. Finally, disable/uninstall the Google photos app from your phone.

It takes a while for adaptive battery to kick (weeks). Especially, when you newly setup an android device. Same with adaptive brightness. Mine drains fast in active heavy use on 5G with motion smoothness set to high. I also have a dual sim model where one can be pulling the lowest signal strength from tower which can also affect battery drain.

Ah, what was that? I’m currently using one oneui 5. Compared to xioami, the software is more stable and doesn’t have stupid restrictions like not allowing access to running services or frequently killing background apps and services.

Samsung TV’s run on tizen OS, not android.

Yeah, if not for Ytmusic, I wouldn’t have considered youtube premium. Seperate they don’t make much sense. Together, they add a lot of value. Plus, the bonus of not being bombarbed by multiple ads on each video is good.
