It isn't google-free in the sense that it ships https://microg.org

Unless you enable SafetyNet, none of Google's code runs.

"Inside the EU" in the sense of "its headquartered in the EU" or in the sense of "available in the EU"?

either way, I've heard lots of people here vouch for Tidal.

Proton and Wire didn't share any decrypted ciphertexts, Wire shared a ProtonMail address and Proton an iCloud Address that they had set as a recovery method.

Personal info like where they live came from Apple.

Most info came from the fact that they made the move to link their personal iCloud Mail as a recovery method.

Infinite wisdom.

The case is essentially "hey you kinda passed a bill that's against your own constitution? You're kinda supposed to follow that..."

presumably, you're already in the right place!

Though, generally all over all kinds of places in the web you'll find communities of neurodiverse and/or autistic people :)

there are additional cookies with duration as high as 1825 days, not 180... So which is it?

Whatever the browser reports is what they are actually doing.

In Firefox, enter the developer tools, navigate to the "Storage" tab and open the "Cookies" dropdown. For any given domain you can now look at the "Max Age" or Expiry date.

I think what you're experiencing online is a mix of loud minorities^1^ and online disinhibition^2^, not an accurate representation of vegans.

1: When there exists a minority in XYZ Group that is "louder" than the majority, causing people to associate XYZ group with the minority. 2: The phenomena of people acting out more violently, frequently, or pushy online when compared to being in-person, primarily due to anonymity

Specifically the annoyingly loud, self-righteous, insists-everyone-must-join-them vegans. Unfortunately, most people only really see this sort of vegan

On this note, I'd like to point to the Loud Minority problem; You have XYZ group, and within XYZ group there exists a minority that comes across as very "loud". You can barely miss them, and because they state they're a part of XYZ group, you start associating that group with the loud minority.

Happens with Vegans a lot, and usually people which have already associated a group with a minority within said group which annoys them do not want to learn that they are wrong, or will just refuse to accept they are wrong.
