| I mostly use Discord these days on my smartphone... |
| social media apps? i guess messenger for calling others for free |
| Chrome: for internet obvs. YouTube: for YT obvs. WhatsApp: to chat to fam. Gallery: to view pics. Camera: to take pics. Google maps: for directions when I'm somewhere new to me. YT music: to get annoyed at it, and to listen to music. AliExpress: to buy more unnecessary crap from China. Trainline: to plan train journeys/check timetables etc. Asda rewards: it's a reward system for said grocery store. Greggs: same idea as above for the sausage roll gods. Stagecoach: I use the GPS map on it to follow along the bus journey, as usually I don't exactly know where I'm going. |

| Mainly just YouTube. Id prefer not to use YouTube but we still arent at a point others are being used much especially by Japanese users so there is a lot i cant get on Odysee or something. I dont have it on my current phone but i was using an app that allows you to block outgoing IP addresses. DesuMaiden said: lol people are addicted to being spied on by NSA via smartphone apps. So much LARP. You use Windows 8 and likely a normal Android ROM on your smartphone loaded with Google in every corner and also in this thread mentioned using Discord. None of these are privacy or security safe. It is a real pain to actually try and be secure these days, seems dauntingly impossible almost. DesuMaiden said: blocking ads hurts websites by denying them of ad revenue btw. Some ad blockers only block intrusive ads. LightWorker said: Google maps: for directions when I'm somewhere new to me. You should try something that uses OpenStreetMaps. Like OsmAnd or Organic Maps or Magic Earth so Google isn't tracking your every move (at least not explicitly since they still can access GPS data unless you use a deGoogled custom ROM). Plus I think these can work with offline maps if you have no signal. OsmAnd is more feature rich and Organic Maps is more simple to use, i know less about Magic Earth. They all have features for public transport including trains and busses. So not sire if that could also replace what you are using the Stagecoach app for too or not since i dont know if you are buying tickets with it. |
| To the above poster, I am more secure than most people. Alot of people practice even worse OpSec than me. I am not totally unhackable. But alot of other people are much easier to hack than me. |

| @traed you actually think I don't know about the security vulnerabilities of Windows and Android? I do. But I am not using them for anything that requires high-security from hackers. |

| @DesuMaiden Hackers arent the issue but private corporations collecting a personal profile to be sold including to government entities. Also if you are on any Discord servers there is bots that get into the servers and record the logs to be searchable and sold elsewhere. This information can say for example influence credit score for example, at least in theory. |

| @traed and I am 100% aware of these bots. I know alot about cyber security btw. No point in using Windows in 2024 besides playing some pc games tbh. Using Linux in a Virtual Machine (VM) greatly reduces your risks of getting hacked btw. |
