Which one are you?
Oh nice try government, I won’t fingerprint myself in a public comment like some kind of sucker 😏
So tech paranoid then, got it /s
Hah, too late. You’re already being linguistically fingerprinted by your grammar and word choice. Only option now is to not comment on public forums anymore I guess. 😩
Unless you’re behind like seven proxies, you’re already fuckered.
has hundreds of private messaging applications that their friends won’t use
This hurts
Friends?
Hits too close to home
Friends?
Can relate. Signal is luckily mainstream enough to bring some people in after some convincing.
@Killercat103 @treadful I also do the same. But Siganl devs are kinda weird.
Between Tech Conservative and The newborn paranoid
same
Same.
Tech conservative for the most part. I prefer FOSS, but I’m fine with using some propietary software
I’m in the same boat. I feel like going any further than Newborn Paranoid and you start sacrificing so much of your time, money and convenience it’s not worth it anymore.
you want somebody to admit that they were tech paranoid? nice try, luminescent americans
This is marvelous

Lol using tails as a main OS. That’s something.
OS ? nah that’s bloated and adds too much security flaws, true paranoids use UEFI programs
True paranoids don’t use computers. They build a wooden cabin in northern Finland, grow their fish from FOSS genecode since other fishes have microplastic tracker chips inside them now, develop a supernatural sense to see “glowie” auras, and only talk in smoke signals feds do not understand (It runs on the Matrix protocol) all while following FSF philosophy
Ahh, apex-level paranoid
Tech Conservative here but don’t 100% agree with the icons shown. Everyone has their own needs and reasons to be the way they are and that’s ok.
What’s the problem with e-books? Even more the ones you download into your computer and open with okular or some emacs e-pub mode?
(Anyway, I don’t know what half of those icons are.)
Yeah, it’s a meme, best not to overthink it, it does only make a limited amount of sense lol
Between conservative and newborn paranoid. I use Fedora and Firefox, but (microg) LineageOS and F-Droid on my phone. Also I don’t know what half of those apps are but I’d like to use matrix.
Definitely tech conservative. I’m aware of all the problems with big tech and closed source software but I’m not going to jump through major hoops to make sure I’m adhering to Stallman’s principles.
I’ve wanted to meet FSF member in real life for a long time. No luck so far.
As for Stallman, I find it sad that he has been right about many things. I will not do what he does but I appreciate the fact that someone like him exists and still fights for what he believes in.
Somewhere between Tech Conservative and FSF Member.
I don’t care about Stallman as a person. I care about being able to use the software I like and not get spied on, and the FSF actively works to ensure I can do that, so even if trying to use all FSF-approved software isn’t practical now they’re still helping to make things better. They are an important counterbalance to the bullshit.
