Does he have much experience with computers? Not sure if it'd be easier to set him up with something like ChimeraOS that just runs Steam and the game or a basic desktop environment so he can write stuff and browse the internet.

In the aged care home I work in, we've had a few who can work a smart phone but most can barely work their TV. Being into RC planes might work in his favour.

The eSafety commission argued that "well everyone just uses VPNs anyway so it won't matter"

Eh, have you seen some of the bots that just repost reddit content verbatim? Some trash slips through the cracks.

This is just an ad for something called PrivateLINE (no relation).

Event planning platforms are never going to compete with massive social communication platforms, they're entirely different ends of the stick.

As long as Mobilizon continues to work, that's all I ask for.

4K Blu Rays encoded in H265 are usually on 100gb discs, so I can see where they're coming from

Why is it 694mb, Windows only and hosted on Mediafire?

Nice try, but no.

Shame nobody has been able to reuse the existing Google board but this is probably the next best thing. Might have to pick up a few boards.

What's your use case? Likeminded techie friends? Family members?

Signal works well as an alternative to the likes of Telegram and WhatsApp, even if it still requires a phone number and is centralised. Far easier to explain to the family instead of "oh well you can sign up on this website or this website or that website".

Granted, if you want to host a small Matrix server just for the family, then go for it.

I've been a Posteo customer for a few years and they've been great. €1 a month, mail storage encryption, works great with any IMAP client.

As good as the intentions of Tutanota and Proton are with free plans, the likes of Gmail have taught me to be very wary of free plans of anything.
