Why is port forwarding important? Sorry if it's a dumb question, lol.

Damn, good eye.

Use a password manager in c/privacy@lemmy.ml

Quick question - what are your opinions on using Firefox's inbuilt password manager? I've installed Bitwarden as an extension, but I find Firefox to be more convenient.

I mostly use FF on Linux, Windows, and Android and have no issues with using FF cross platforms.

That last line is an absolutely brilliant insult. Love it.

Isn't sweatpants what most of the "younger generation" wear? Baggy T-shirt, sweat pants and sneakers with socks pulled all the way up outside the sweatpants.

While everyone is entitled to their preferences, if it's not a tapered fit then they're wrong.

(But tapered fit is my preference though. Looks much classier than either extremes)

Honestly it's either or. I knew a couple of guys back in uni, one Indian the other Pakistani and they were really tight. Maybe it's just the narrow minded bigots who blindly hate another because of political history rather than treat them as an individual.

Also knew an Israeli and a Palestinian (weren't tight as such but were friendly with each other).

Quick question - any issue with just saving passwords on Firefox? I use FF across all my devices and the sync between them without the need of an extra app is super convenient.

Or am I just being naive?

I've been using SwiftKey for over a decade now, and I didn't really realize how potentially horrible it is for privacy. What are some good alternatives you guys can suggest, ideally open source?

My ideal keyboard includes swipe to type and a notepad (to paste certain emoticons like shrug emoji and such).

Thank you!

Edit, for any future lemmings/internet people who want the definitive answer (so far, as of October '23), OpenBoard works great.

Download the latest release apk from here

And if you want swipe typing as well,

Download the "libjni_latinimegoogle.so" file onto your phone from here

Then when you open OpenBoard, go to Advanced and select "Load gesture typing library". When it asks you to select a file, select the "libjni" file and swiping should work just fine.
