You just became an ad for mullvad…

I made the jump about 2 months ago for the same reasons you’re considering. My job also being very similar in usage to yours. Literally 0 issues so far, couldn’t be more satisfied that I made the jump. I went with mint and there was basically zero learning curve for me coming from w10.

Do it.

Is the any way to add something like this to my pihole to block all this shit network wide?

Yeah, they were the ones who pioneered streaming

Nice

Donated! Keep up the good work

I don’t disagree that they should make some money for their efforts, but isn’t every client for lemmy made by a single developer?

I’m android and went through about 1 month of switching between clients to find the one I liked the most. Connect was the winner for me. Multiple accounts, hide read, good default UI amongst a handful of other things
