It’s been close to 10 months since I fully switched to Linux. I am running Arch on all of my devices. Server, laptop and desktop. Desktop I have borked few times, but no worries since I dont store any critical data on the drive. Only OS because of this. I know I will bork it in future too, but I like to learn new things and Linux is the best choice for that.

Convinced my gf to also switch to Linux, but we are still trying to find a more stable distro for her. I feel like installing Fedora or MX Linux for her.

Locally stored KeePass

Here are my favorite Firefox extensions—these are a mix of essentials I can’t live without, privacy tools, and some that just make browsing a lot easier:

Essentials:

uBlock Origin: The best adblocker out there. It’s fast and blocks ads, trackers, and more, which keeps things running smoothly. KeePassXC-Browser: Integrates KeePassXC to auto-fill passwords—super handy so I don’t have to type anything in manually. To Google Translate: Great for quick translations. Just highlight text, right-click, and you’re good to go.

Privacy & Security:

ClearURLs: Cleans up tracking elements from URLs, so when I share a link, it’s cleaner and more private. Firefox Relay: Creates alias emails to protect my real address, helping keep spam away. Privacy Badger: Blocks trackers automatically as I browse—set it and forget it. LocalCDN: Prevents my browser from connecting to third-party servers unnecessarily by using local resources instead. Consent-O-Matic: Fills in those annoying cookie consent forms for me, saving time while keeping my privacy settings intact.

Enhancements:

Dark Reader: Turns on dark mode for websites, perfect for late-night browsing. Augmented Steam: Improves the Steam store by showing better prices, deals, and user reviews. FoxScroller: Auto-scrolls pages, so I don’t have to keep manually scrolling long articles or threads. Save Page WE: Saves web pages as HTML, which is awesome for viewing them offline or archiving stuff. Download All Images: Lets me bulk download all images from a webpage—super useful. Simple Tab Groups: Keeps my tabs organized in groups so my sessions don’t get messy. Plasma Integration: Integrates Firefox with my KDE Plasma desktop for native notifications and media controls. Add custom search engine: Lets me add any site’s search bar to Firefox as a custom search engine for quicker searches. I mainly use this for SearXNG.

VPN:

Windscribe: My VPN extension for a secure connection with just one click.

Just use SearXNG.

I didnt get survey.

Krunner is great.

Just downloaded and installed Organic Maps from F-Droid. Looks really nice.

Arch.

Watch the video?

Yup. Linux also was really easy. I have used both.

Way too expensive.

I hope more people would hop on to i2p. Its really easy to setup.

Just managed to setup i2pd with IRC, ip2snark for torrents and got my website running also.

Firefox

Nvidia Shield controller, 2015 version.

Start with Mint and use flatpaks. You will be all set.

This is the way.

Quassel server at home and Quasseldroid to connect to it.

Its really great. I can only recommend.

Used since 2006.
