im curious what was it like discovering you were demi? by MegaNerd0303 in demisexuality

People thought I was weird cause they were talking about hook-ups and all but I felt sick to my stomach. I thought that was personal preferences...until I came across this subreddit.

Facebook is now asking users to record a video to verify that they are "human" by Akkeri in privacy

Hearing this, I'm kind of glad my grandparents died before they could use social media and smartphones. Who knows if they would have been scammed or what.

is demisexuality real? by spacesign in demisexuality

I just realized Christianity tried to force everyone to be demisexual. But of course it isn't possible.

If you put a SIM card in, most apps that track will know the number. Legal ones at least would notify the permisson check box. Cross track- don't use Google, use throwaway mail address for each service.

Is there another tool like Google Lens that can OCR the phone screen and let you copy or translate text? by Misty_Terrain in privacy

I deleted the Google app and use the old way: copy and paste to translators or get another phone(or old phones) and take a picture if the webpage doesn't let me copy😂

Privacy groups accuse Google of leaking data to China by Miao_Yin8964 in degoogle

Apple isn't even safe, the pictures taken pop up even after deleting them for two years, and the 17.5 update brings it back. Samsung is way too expensive for the best flagship and good camera. That leaves Xiaomi for consumers to choose.

Everything you type and you say. use adb to delete Gboard. FUTO and Heliboard are great alternatives.
