I’m new to Lemmy and therefore exploring different instances, you could say. I myself am a pirate and I do it for watching purposes (this much is pretty obvious from my username). I’m also an otaku and somewhat of a privacy consious user.

I avoid a few brands because I don’t find their products good. Other than this, I don’t care about brands much. I choose to buy based on the quality rather than brand


If you want a privacy-focused Chromium browser with no Google stuff and also one that has extensions then, check out Cromite.
If you want a privacy focused browser which runs the most smoothly out of all privacy focused browsers and is the best one for simple people, I suggest Brave. (sadly it’s a US product)
And there’s always the Firefox forks, I would recommend these: Iceraven Browser, Fennec, WebLibre, IronFox. I would suggest IronFox and the most here since it’s the best one for privacy and doesn’t need any more hardening since it’s mostly fully hardened out-of-the-box. This is specifically for Android. If on desktop, you can check out LibreWolf, Mullvad Browser, Zen Browser etc. I recommend LibreWolf the most here.
Main advice: Every browser has pros and cons. You have to use each one and figure out the best browser for yourself. For example, Brave is greatly hardened out-of-the-box and every site runs very smoothly. So, great convenience. But sadly, it’s a US product! Cromite has no Google stuff and runs smoothly too, but it’s not hardened out-of-the-box. You have to manually add filter lists to improve your experience. IronFox is greatly hardened out-of-the-box, but it’s sometimes too hardened that sites break or behave weirdly. And sites also don’t run as smoothly as it runs on Chromium browsers (this happens for any Firefox browser at all, especially on Android)
Optional but recommended tip: Check out Celenity and his guides. You can also check out his Recommendations for services you use


Fediverse users are already prepared greatly if something like this were to occur 😹
And I wish this would really happen


In terms of YouTube, I would use Peertube and Odysee or perhaps, GrayJay. Mastodon instead of Twitter, I don’t even need Facebook so nothing for Facebook, I’m a pirate anyways so I don’t even need Netflix, Amazon. I don’t need Apple in any way since I use Android. If there’s no existence of even an Android device, then I would either use a Linux Phone or just Linux on desktop. Brave Search or Mojeek or others instead of Google. Ask Brave (it’s American so I guess it’s not counted), Deepseek, Qwen etc. instead of ChatGPT. I don’t use Tiktok so nothing here. I would probably spend just a little bit less time on internet (mainly because of disappearance of YouTube). For me, not much would change other than the YouTube experience. I predict I would most likely watch TV channels more once again due to not finding enough enjoyable content.


I determine it by analyzing their attitude, behaviour, body language, their personal beliefs.


It’s okay now.
We need them to a certain degree. Depends on the type of police too. We need police who are genuinely doing justice and not injustice (which is uncommon).
