Double VPN, first one is orbot/psiphon and then your VPN.

Easy on Linux, not so easy on other platforms, especially non-rooted android or iphones

Yup XD

Is this a good guide?

Some of them are funny indeed

I mean… This is a site for posting things, and I posted a thing. Trust me, this isn’t the highlight of my day or something that deeply bothers me

I didn’t take it personally, just confused and amused at the situation

I don’t think it’s a joke community, it seems to just be about hating Linux and not allowing any Linux positivity or praise

Nah, this seems like a community to dunk on Linux

If the download mode is not fastboot, is might be some sort of LG proprietary “fastboot” of sorts, maybe some research into this mode can help

Maybe this?

Religion is often not a choice. For example you are gay, and also born in a muslim house, maybe your famiky decided that you are more important to them then the homophobia, and so, you are gay and a muslim because nothing pushed you to detach from your default religion.

In Australia, but I think it’s the same model as the US

What do you mean? I’m not from the US and I have a steam deck

This is good advice, but I would add having a bootable Linux distro on a usb, and using more and more until you find yourself not needing Windows, then move to Linux with just it or a dual boot configuration with Windows as a fallback

Oh but when the Linux crowd does it it’s okay?

How would “what are you doing step bro??” Sound in Sim-ian?

Classic Linux problems, just use Windows.

Don’t over think it, start small, a home server. Then add stuff, you will see that it’s not that crazy.

I personally have just one home server that locally creates encrypted backups and uploads them to backblaze.

This gives me the privacy I need as everything is on my server that I own while also having the backups on a big reliable company.

It’s not perfect but it fits my threat model

It was some weird tablet like UI that I installed on a weak old laptop to use it again.

I have no clue which distro it was but I never came across it again
