Thank you!

Can you expand a bit what you tell people about not liking Meta’s business model? I got some people to follow me to Signal, but only for messaging with my husband and me. They don’t really care for the privacy aspect, so I’m curious about your other arguments!

Still fun to see in different languages! In Dutch the literal translation is:

♙ Pawn
♖ Tower
♔ King
♕ Lady
♗ Walker (as in: slow runner)
♘ Horse

Pion, toren, koning, dame, loper, paard.

That was fun, thanks! I made it till rule 24 on my phone. I give up haha

Thank you, I think you are right. The comments on my comment have been nothing but helpfull and kind. It’s really encouraging for a new Lemmy-user like me!

I did not know. Really kind of you to take the time to react on my comments and giving all these suggestions, cheers!

Thank you and thank you so much for the prompt as well, you are so kind! :)

I did it! Or something like it, I learned about DNS and I installed the AdGuard app and begun my free trial period :) Thank you!

Thank you! I will start by searching what DNS is 😁

Thanks, that’s really kind :)

Ah thanks! I just switched to Firefox and Duckduckgo as search engine because all the comments on privacy here on Lemmy. I will check Brave out as well!

Not technical at all, I work in Learning & Development at a company. I am always reading the comments and try to learn, but sometimes I have really no clue what you guys are talking about haha!

Yesterday someone was expleaning about adblocker and all the comments were like: “Yeah, who can live without it…” Well, me I guess? And I saw one that was highly recommended so I downloaded it, because why not try it out right? But apparently it’s not for your phone. Or I didn’t have the right app to support it on my phone.

I was thinking about asking it in the comments of the thread, but like you said: I think a lot of people here have a tech background and although everyone is very nice, I think the explanation might go over my head.

I don’t want to give people the feeling I get when I’m trying to explain to my mom over the phone how she can e-mail a file on her computer. It can be very frustrating ;)
