Trying to be private ironically just going to make it worse and make you stand out. Using a non-default OS, non-default browser, custom settings/blocklists will just make your fingerprint more unique.

I use an android phone but just don't use any other google services - no search, no gmail, no default apps. I do most browsing in tor-browser, so google ads won't correlate with me.

syncthing automtically connects with bunch of external servers automatically. Relays/discovery servers/stun etc. You can disable but they are enabled by default. They connect on first run and before you get a chance to disable - atleast on android. Everything may be encrypted but I still prefer to not connect to external servers

og vim does not have full lsp out of the box. However it does have the the api and options to implement one easily.

Its useless for me without the ability to copy paste via keyboard. i.e. tmux's `ctrl b + ctrl [`

Telegram should have a setting to choose the default (secret vs regular chat) and ask the user on installation. I understand about the backups part but a lot of users may don't care about backups. This will remove a lot of bad mouth on them and also save server resources as they don't have to save secret chats forever. I really like telegram for their cool bot-api, instant-view and channels.

It would be good to have a systemd service file

May not be archivy directly. But for example if the web pages use static assets like google fonts, jquery, they will send external requests thus leaking the presence of the self hosted server. Or may be some javascript plugin that phones home.

I use dropbox for saving import documents/receipts/statements. Being early adopter, have 5GB storage. All I need is a peace of mind that I don't loose important stuff if my computer breaks down or temporarily becomes unavailable. I don't need any other feature. If I had to pay about $10 per year, I would just use it happily. But their minimum plan is >$100. I occasionally use file-requests feature. If it was like pay as you go type, that would be good too. I think reasonable low tier pricing will get them consistent long term revenue.

Does anyone know what is gemini? I couldn't find relevant results in any of the search engines.

I use xmllint for html and xml. I don't think it supports json

I gave up on jq and use jello[1][2] instead. gron too looks nice.

I am in the free plan for about two years. I remember reading the terms before I subscribed which clearly stated that they can discontinue the free plan anytime. It is really good plan as I don't have to worry about buying printer ink, always print in high quality color and printed a lot of photos. TBH, it is still really a good plan for $1 per month.

Does this work as a regular keyboard for other systems too?

I create a telegram channel and few lines of shell script and a systemd timer to feed it. Advantage is that I get to read the entire post fast without going to a browser or custom app (instantview only works only in mobile app). E.g. https://t.me/instant_news_tech

If it was a regular application installed by a linux package manager, the dependencies will be automatically updated to fix security issues(At least in most cases).
