You’d think the fact that Kaspersky is useless would be enough to keep people from using it.

It's not useless for brainless users sadly

Kaspersky is just one piece of software to avoid. Others include:

  • Telegram
  • Avast AV
  • Anything from 360 Safe / Qihoo 360
  • Opera browser ... now owned by above
  • Zoom
  • FileZilla / UTorrent / other PUA that bundles adware and acts essentially as a trojan

Ah fuck, what's the alternative to FileZilla?! I've been using that for like 17 years.

Dolphin on KDE/Linux and WinSCP on Windows

I think whatever GNOME calls their file browser supports FTP as well.

It surely does, but i'm not sure if you can switch to side-by-side view

Telegram is better than WhatsApp. At least it has a decent Linux client, and all clients are open source. WhatsApp has neither.

Maybe better client and more features. But Russians have full access to servers and messages. They could read whatever they want. It's a fact that proved during war that Russia started in Ukraine.
