And before Pidgin was named Pidgin, it was named GAIM, which was short for GTK AIM, which was short for GIMP toolkit AOL IM, which was short for GNU Image Manipulation Program toolkit America Online Instant Messenger, which was short for GNU's Not Unix Image Manipulation Program toolkit America Online Instant Messenger and it never ends.

Lazy path: just buy an remap a Kinesis 360 Pro. It's perfectly fine to just go with some off-the-shelf perfection and procrastinate all the time you've saved.

I run syncthing with my own relay and I trust that setup. Owning me through syncthing would basically require backdooring the software, something that'd be likely to go noticed by the syncthing community.

It's literally a third-party service that let's others control your desktop. Doesn't matter how FOSS the clients and end servers are, one also needs to trust the intermediate servers. If those running them are caught dishonest about which country they're located, the trust evaporates. China or not.

Firefox ate my RAM joke is ridiculous. Nokia N900 has 256MB RAM. Fennec for Maemo had electrolysis (multiprocessing) turned on. In version 4. Years before the desktop Firefox. You really need to go old-school embedded for Firefox to eat your RAM.

I visualize that as you turning in between the two commenters mid-sentence, telling off both of them.

Don't you dare put nix together with these fossils of package management.
