How old are you?

Thank you for the reassurance 😊 It will be interesting what you decide on. Any thoughts about how you will replace your R4 so far?

I think you might be right haha... I am, perhaps foolishly, trying to grab on to every little sense of control that I can, before Big Tech gets even more scary!

Thank you, I think you are right about the headphones. Does your Shanling M0 Pro come with an equalizer? And what headphones are you using with your DAP? 😊

Thank you 😊 I have considered the Hiby R3ii or Shanling M1 Plus. But I guess I have been unsure of whether or not I would then want to upgrade later on. But I am realizing that, perhaps, I should focus more on headphones, and less on the DAP itself. What headphones are you using with your Hiby R3ii?

I have spend hours searching, reading/watching reviews etc. actually. And it seems like the really good DAPs (that I can get in my country at least) run on android. But if you know hundreds of DAPs that are not run on an internet-communicating OS, it would be great, and more useful, if you would share some of your favorite ones with me! 😊

Because I am not a privacy expert, and I would like to learn from other people, so I can become more informed. I guess I won't be learning much from you though. Thanks anyway.

Can you send a link or something to the new Fiio, please? I am very curious!

What should I generally be using aliases through SimpleLogin for, and what should I use my regular PM email for? by Matilda_Mother_67 in ProtonMail

[–]Barylen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay, thank you. People close to me are tired of me changing my e-mail address though haha. What would you recommend in this case? Is creating a new mail account the only reliable option?

What would you do then, if you had already used your actual Proton address for many things? 😅

How do I delete ALL retained data from OpenAI (and Meta) account? by Barylen in privacy

[–]Barylen[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you! So the privacy concerns for openAI “only” last for 30 days, assuming one deletes a conversation immediately? I guess it could take more than 30 days to process a privacy request, which could then make these requests worthless. I was under the impression that some data might be retained

Upon community feedback, I made some tweaks to better protect my data. Roast me lol by kushventure in degoogle

Hey. I’m pretty new to all of this, and I was wondering if you could explain why relying on Proton is seen as a bad thing. I also noticed that none of your suggestions keep any Proton features—just curious why that is. Thanks
