You don’t need to keep reaffirming my judgment of you, I’m completely satisfied with it. And as I’ve already told you, I don’t consider the opinions of morons. Stay mad over being a Windows pleb… no sweat off my balls, in fact, it’s hilarious to me.
Lmao, thank you for confirming to me that I should not consider your opinions. You obviously have no clue what you are talking about. Every major Linux DE runs circles around Windows DE in terms of both UI and workflows. It’s not even close… like, not even a little bit close. I’ll write you off as another ignorant Windows pleb… imagine being hard stuck Windows.
Yeah, I agree with the meme, Windows is absolute dogshit… it’s a joke. I didn’t realize it until switching to Linux and seeing how an OS should be built.
webview != browser… what is so hard to understand about this? The fact that an OS is reliant on a browser out of the box, is absolutely ridiculous. If all these app dependencies were on the Edge Webview base instead of pointed at the actual browser installation, we wouldn’t be having this conversation.
You have got to be trolling.
Do you use Android? Chrome is the native WebView that a good chunk of your apps use.
Wait… so you are talking about webviews when I was talking about the actual browser? Lmao… talk about a false equivalency.
This is got many advantages and many disavantages. If you dislike it, fair enough - but let’s not pretend this is unusual or somehow unjustifiable.
I’m talking about forcing the actual browser installation. Nothing you said has countered this, Android doesn’t force Chrome to be installed for webviews in applications. The webview class is nothing close to being a full browser, and certainly doesn’t require a browser to be installed to use it. If anything, that is an example of the right way to do it… having a separate class, that is not dependent on the actual browser installation.
Yes, please go on, I can’t wait to hear more of your ridiculous takes.
And the web browser being an integral part of the OS is a fucking joke to most of us.
I just remembered doing similar things. Sub7 is something that just came to mind and I can’t remember the last time I thought about that, been a long time.

Cake Wallet is available for Linux since May of this year, but it’d probably be better to install Feather Wallet in TAILS.
That actually sounds pretty awesome in terms of not having big risk and being easy enough that someone like me can pull it off. But does just moving it to another wallet make it anon?
(non-anon wallet) => transfer A => (anon wallet)
You have the idea, that’s all you need to do, the only thing I will add is that I would also recommend using sub addresses on each of the wallets. It’s not a good idea to use the same address over and over if you are going to do future transactions.
Also… maybe a dumb question and I know this is completely different but i’m used to having tools like ipleak.net to check for dns leaks and stuff like that. Is there a way to check if your current wallet is anonymous or can be traced back to you?
Setup your first Cake wallet on your phone, without regard to being anonymous, as you are funding it with a known account like zelle or whatever anyway. Then boot into TAILS and set persistent storage with a Cake Wallet that you create in there, that will be your anonymous wallet, and then you can fund it from your known wallet. That TAILS Cake wallet will then be anonymous and you will not need to worry about tracking or fingerprinting in TAILS while you are connected to TOR. Just make sure not to accidentally identify yourself through other means.
Yeah, you would look at the list of vendors trading with cash, and then choose one that you like. Check reviews.
does that mean i can only trade other crypto for it?
Not sure what you mean exactly by this, can you rephrase that?
like i have a credit card and cash but no crypto, no wallet, etc currently…
You are going to need a wallet regardless of how you fund it, I would recommend Cake Wallet.
so that only leaves cash and it sounds like you are supposed to put actual paper cash monies in an envelope and physically mail it out? doesn’t that mean if you mailed like $50 or $100 or whatever, that it could get lost in the mail and you’re just fucked and have to eat it?
Yeah, there is a little bit of risk to do it this way. You would want to make sure that you can’t tell it’s just cash in an envelope.
Also, doesn’t post office requiere a return address? i thought they refuse to mail without that cz of bombs/hatemail/etc? Am I wrong about that?
You can write anything you want on the return address though, it doesn’t matter. Obviously again, if it does get returned, you’d lose it. And that is the risk you take for being completely anonymous this way.
Alternatively you could use a known account like paypal or zelle or cashapp to fund an initial wallet but then you have to make sure to send it to another XMR wallet so it’s anonymous.
Get XMR like the other person said if you want anonymity.
Pay by cash, or if you buy it with a known account then send it to another XMR wallet afterwards.
I have a Paperwhite 2015 version that I got back in 2016 for only $30 when they had a big sale on them to unload for their new version. Looks like on eBay that 2015 version goes for $30-50 today.
I transfer books to it via a USB using Calibre. It doesn’t need nor do I connect it to WiFi. Newer models might also be able to work via USB only, I don’t know, but I know my 2015 works that way.
Yeah, unfortunately, although they were kbin users. I made lengthy responses to both of those individuals. If you want to read a lot of really bad takes, here you go:

Although, I narrowly avoided an aneurysm reading their comments, so I wouldn’t recommend it.
I agree, some of these users in Sync threads are just straight up fucking annoying. Not even with their opinions that Sync is the best, that’s inconsequential in my opinion and fine, but I’ve had to stand up to a few really ignorant and a couple of really dumb takes regarding FOSS recently. I’m a FOSS advocate, but I believe in using the best tool/app/option firstly and I generally avoid recommendations unless they are sought after, but I just can’t stand by when inaccuracies and hypocritical takes are being thrown around regarding FOSS.
I had someone essentially arguing for security through obscurity with this comment recently:
FOSS brings a whole lotta good - and more good than bad - but it’s also pretty damn vulnerable because a bad actor could just look at the source code and then figure out what exploits and vulnerabilities a FOSS app might have.
Another user with another bad take:
Why would I invest my time and energy into a FOSS app that may go defunct in a year or two, when I can just install an app that does the same thing, looks nicer, does more, is easier to use, and has the backing of a company that is likely going to stick around for a while?
Like hello? That proprietary app just got killed by a proprietary platform, and was saved by a FOSS platform. And backing of a company? Also might want to check out killedbygoogle.com
With that said, Sync is really polished, it’s been in development for a long time now so it’s going to have that advantage over other clients. It has by far the most customization I’ve tried, which I absolutely love, and it runs smoothly. Right now it has a major glitch with comment sorting by top, but once that is fixed, then it is worth $20 for ad-free. And annoying Sync users aside, that’s how I feel about Sync.
I also support Jerboa, and have sent them money. And in all honestly, even though Jerboa doesn’t have the customization that Sync has right now, it runs just as smoothly and the defaults align with my wants and needs so it doesn’t need the extra customization for me personally. When Jerboa adds a default comment sorting option, it’s going to be my preferred client.
It’s putting child comments that have higher upvotes above the parent comments. So it seems to be sorting strictly by upvote without taking into account hierarchy. A child comment shouldn’t appear above the parent comment like it is doing.

This one might be easier to see for you.
How it looks in Sync, it’s fucked up.

How it looks in Jerboa, it is correct.
