That would be an instant unsubscribe from me. Otherwise you’re just giving them permission to keep doing this.

There’s still a few weeks until 25.10 releases. If its still issues by release time I’m sure that they’ll either delay the 25.10 release (as they have done in the past) or pause the coreutils-rs rollout and stick to GNU Coreutils for this release.

It gets pushed often by reactionaries as an “anti-woke” browser LOL its a complete piece of shit. It’s got crypto, tracking, NFTs, AI and ads baked in. Literally everything I hate about the tech industry rolled up into one package. I’d rather use Chrome, even.

Just use Firefox for gods sakes, Brave is a complete joke of a browser especially when it comes to privacy.

GrapheneOS is probably not long for this world with how much Google has been fucking with AOSP’s source code releases. We need full-fat mainline Linux on our phones, with no Android code included.

Credit Card only it looks like. Mozilla VPN is just a wrapper around Mullvad (it uses their servers and technology) so I would recommend getting that. Mullvad accepts a lot of more bespoke payment methods (crypto, wire transfer, cash in an envelope). The main reason to get Mozilla VPN is to bundle it with Mozilla’s other services.

That’s extremely weird, I’ve never heard of Firefox not letting you browse until you update. When snap auto-updates Firefox there’s usually a notification bubble asking to close your browser to update but you can dismiss it and keep browsing in my experience.

The hate for snap on Linux forums always felt weird to me, I’ve literally never had issues with Firefox snap. I understand being frustrated with it on the principle that it feels Windows-y to force it on the system, but the Firefox snap is packaged by Mozilla and bundles the latest Mesa libraries instead of using the older libraries from the Debian repos that don’t have the latest performance fixes, so its also faster than installing through .deb. And Mozilla has Debian repos for Firefox you can add to your sources.list if you really insist. There’s also nothing preventing you from installing Flatpak and using that on Ubuntu.

/e/os can be installed on devices that can be purchased on the secondhand market for under $100. This is the opposite of “privacy only for the rich”.
