Use softwares that are open sourced and be happy. There’s plenty of period tracking apps on F-Droid.

Open sourced softwares can’t hide trackers from users since the source code must be up-to-date. If not, people will be suspicious. And if a open sourced software do use trackers, the community will complain… a lot!

What description? :) You wrote the title of the video. That itself explans the topic of the video, but nothing more. We who don’t opens the link wants to know in short what the video is truly about.

Anyway. I say good buy now :) Take care.

Honestly, writing a summary of a video uploaded to YouTube is a very valid thing to do for any YouTube video (I am not alone with not opening links that goes to Big Tech’s services). Just copy and paste the video’s description, use DeepL or Offline Translator to translate it if it is not in English. Super easy to do. And if the video does not have any description, just write what the video is all about (but explains more than the title does). Doesn’t have to be a long summary.

And for the Piped instances. Yes, unfortunately a lot of them are not working. That is why I installed it on my own server last year or so. But I would rather see a link to a Piped instance than a link to YouTube. That way I have a choice to switch instance. But with a link that leads to youtube.com, I need to copy the URL (if I can) or open the link and spam Esc or the X icon in hope that Google will not log anything about me. Just use piped.video (the official instance) and people will be happy. Much more privacy-friendly, too.

Yeah, I know. But wanted to say it anyway.

Never ever post a link to YouTube in a channel that are about privacy! Link to a privacy-friendly front-end like Piped instead.

If you don’t care about sharing your phone number with Signal and a third-party company (Signal refuses to state what company it is) that send the text message with the activation code to you. And if you don’t care that everything will be saved on servers maintained by Amazon in USA.

Then yes, Signal is the right app for you even in 2026.

But if you do care (and you should) about your phone number and the location of your data, you should focus on something more privacy like XMPP (Snikket would be the easiest way to setup your own server) and SimpleX.

XMPP (for an example Snikket) uses OMEMO and OMEMO is based on Signal Protocol.

This app can come very handy sometimes. But it didn’t detect all faces in a group photo. There were 16 people in that group photo and 14 of them got their faces censured.

I understand that the app are in a early stage (v1.0).

If you want to learn Japanese, I can highly recommend KanaDojo.

That is a good question. I contacted Mullvad few years ago and since I download my emails for local storage and then delete them from the server, I can’t find their response (am not home at this very moment).

But I want to remember is that my bank blocks the Swedish VPN servers due to fraud/misuse.

I can do whatever with Mullvad VPN here in Sweden besides of logging into my bank. They are blocking the Swedish servers for whatever reason so I just change to the Norwegian servers instead.
