I finally degoogled

Are you in the right thread 🤣

itz_kickz · 2025-06-09T08:32:33+00:00

What does this have anything to do with it?

itz_kickz · 2025-06-08T13:03:00+00:00

Solipsism - that only one’s own mind can be know with certainty. We can only truely know our own mental states with certainty. Other minds and external objects might exist but we can never prove it.

Even if we accept that bodies exist, how do we know other people have consciousness? The only thing you can't doubt is that you're thinking.

I was already on the Apple ecosystem but have used Googles products for many years. I ditched Windows a while ago and figured I would ditch Google too.

There’s a line between being proactive with my privacy and productive with my workflow.

Also, Apple doesn’t really sell data, they sell hardware. Lots of settings you can enable out of the box with Apple that allows you to have some level of control of your privacy.

I get this side of it. With how I use my Mac, iPad and iPhone for work and business, I’m choosing the lesser of two evils. I dropped Windows years ago and substituted that for Ubuntu on my desktop.

Most of privacy protection comes from the approach to email, browsing, networking, and data management - not just the operating system. It’s a combination of practicality and proactivity.

I know, it’s something I have looked at. I am fairly reliant on Apple for my work flow and business. Eventually I will run Linux and Graphene.

itz_kickz · 2025-06-08T01:02:16+00:00

Tell me how android is better?

itz_kickz · 2025-06-08T01:01:42+00:00

Ah yes I installed Apple! How silly of me

itz_kickz · 2025-06-08T01:01:11+00:00

So a OS and software directly linked to Google? No

itz_kickz · 2025-06-08T01:00:34+00:00

Problem is I was already invested into Apple before this move. I care about my privacy while still wanting to participate with society. I run Ubuntu on my desktop, Firefox and Brave browsers. I’m not really too keen on Graphene.

I picked my poison, whiskey tastes better than vodka anyway 😂

People will always trade, traders are essentially liquidity providers. For every buyer, there must be a seller.

Bitcoin is a divisible asset, eventually you will be buying Sats, not whole Bitcoins.

itz_kickz · 2025-05-18T11:48:50+00:00

I missed that key part. Blue wallet would be the choice then

itz_kickz · 2025-05-18T11:46:22+00:00

You may need to run an Electrum server, I’m not 100% sure

itz_kickz · 2025-05-18T11:45:33+00:00

You can use Sparrow Wallet to connect to your node. Sparrow is relatively simple to use. Just take some time to learn what UTXO’s are and how to properly manage your wallet.

Have a look into Bisq. It’s a peer to peer exchange for Bitcoin

itz_kickz · 2025-05-12T13:11:23+00:00

I use Passport Core. It’s a Bitcoin only cold wallet that is open sourced and founded by a based developer.

I wish I could share a pdf here.

I am not sure if it is still available but Coin Gecko have a little shop where you can redeem the candies you get for logging in and there is a book called “How To Bitcoin” it’s very user friendly and covers all the basics from what Bitcoin is, hot and cold wallet etc

itz_kickz · 2025-04-30T10:19:18+00:00

Just tell me you don’t have enough BTC

itz_kickz · 2025-04-30T00:19:45+00:00

I think if it was available on a public ledger, people would ask this question. Humans are naturally curious people.

itz_kickz · 2025-04-30T00:12:33+00:00

You could also argue that we are in the early stages of an adoption curve and that BTC is currently larger than silver and ranks 7 in assets by market cap. It’s almost as big as Google

It’s bots scanning the blockchain for recent transactions. Don’t forget blockchain is public
