How does the price of a vps compare to any other vpn. Surely this isnt as private?

Pedro Pascal Calls For Boycott of HBO's Upcoming $2 Billion ‘Harry Potter' Series — World of Reel in c/transgender@lemmy.blahaj.zone

I can get Irish people blowing things up as problematic, but surely cho Chang and the goblins are people just trying to make problems out of nothing?

I'm looking for an alternative to duolingo, the main appeal for me of duolingo is the gamification of the app as this helps me to stay consistent (so just normal flashcards would not be suitable).

Thanks in advance

DEGOOGLE MEGATHREAD in c/degoogle@lemmy.ml

I tried it and it’s pretty good. I don’t know about storage limits or anything like that, but it gets the job done.

Appflowy would have been perfect, but you can’t edit databases in the web app

Mullvad leta vs 4get (lemm.ee)
 

This is pretty much a. Follow up to my post yesterday and was wondering which search engine to use, I’m leaning stlightly towards mullvad as it is a more reputable and they get their results exclusively from braves index but 4get is open source and has an official instance.

I’m stuck with what to choose. I prioritise speed and privacy

I guess i'm doing pros and cons for all of them now:

Startpage Pros - uses google's search results and anonymous view, eu based Cons - Bought my an ad company

Qwant Pros - eu based Cons - lots of ads, sometimes a bug where it is in france

DDG pros - faster than the other two, Cons - https://techrights.org/o/2020/07/02/ddg-privacy-abuser-in-disguise/
