I was using Etehnity, but I had some issues with it and recently started using Raccoon instead, which has been pretty good.

FOSS is political. Sure, there are right wingers in FOSS projects, but the nature of it is leftist.

EDIT: I just realized feddit blocks both Lemmygrad and Hexbear, so this user cannot see my comment. If anyone wants to use/copy my comment or link directly to it, feel free to do so, I believe I provided enough evidence to debunk most of this user’s sourceless claims. It’s a shame some instances just block us and shows who they truly are.

E: any of you downvoters, feel free to correct me, I’d love to be wrong.

You throw a bunch of claims with zero source and wants to be taken seriously. At least give us the bare minimum before just spewing this much US State Department propaganda.

That being said, I will address some of your points, since someone else might stumble upon this and need an actual answer.

They don’t have CCP officials required by law to work at tech companies and disclose any and all data they acquire?

Keeping a close look on the companies on their country and keeping them on a short leash is good actually. China is not a capitalist hellhole like the US or most of the world, it is a socialist state where the rich does not control the government. Keeping them in check is the right thing to do given their current development level of socialism.

They’re not using Uyghur slaves in their factories?

That’s a new one, so far I have only heard about how they are being genocided. Which you can debunk with a little bit of research: Arab League’s visit to Xinjiang rejects Western accusations of ethnic genocide, religious persecution.

They’re not trying to literally erase Taiwan off the maps?

LMAO, no. Taiwan is part of China, why would China want to erase part of itself off the map? Even the US agrees. The only thing China wants is proper reunification with Taiwan.

They’re not still censoring information about their horrific pasts?

What “horrific past”? Be specific, this vague stance achieves nothing. If you’re talking about Tiananmen Square, here’s a good video about that: The Tiananmen Square “Massacre” Never Happened.

They’re not targeting, retaliating against and kidnapping protestors domestic and abroad?

Again, provide a damn source, I have no idea of what you’re talking about and it is something I never saw anyone claim before.

What I can do tho is bring into attention the names of a few people like Huey P. Newton being killed by the US government and Snowden having to seek asylum abroad after blowing the whistle on the US surveillance state for the world to see. And if that’s not enough, how about Pro-Palestinian protesters clash with US police on second night of DNC and New Report Details How Pro-Palestinian Protests Are Suppressed in Democratic Countries.

They’re not censoring virtually every US social website entirely from the entire country?

No they are not, Microsoft operates in China. Not only that, but they do not explicitly want to simply ban US sites on there, it’s a simple matter of national sovereignty where companies like Facebook and Google refuse to abide by Chinese law, so China simply developed all their tools in-house. Not only that, but Chinese citizens have access to VPNs and can easily access websites abroad that are not usually allowed in China.

Meanwhile the US banned Huawei and tried to ban TikTok when it became apparent they could not control it and that the people were seeing the US for what it truly is, a genocidal state funding Israel in it’s attempt to genocide the Palestinian people.

The last link I posted is a proxy on 12ft.io since The Intercept won’t allow to see the page without registering.

I’ve been using it for a few months now and I think it is great. I can’t compare it to Goodreads and others because I have not used them, but it is pretty straight forward to add a book, give a rating and write a review. I like the UI a lot too.

The only problems I have with it is that the API they use is not very good for adding books in my native language and that backup is manual and I don’t know if it has integration with Android’s automatic backup.

Also, it would be nice to be able to write multiple reviews for the same book, it would be cool to see how much my vision and opinion of a particular title changed over time. I should probably suggest this feature on their github.

You convinced me, I’ll watch it when I get the chance. Thanks!

Same, I always seen people talk about it but never seen it myself until 3 days ago. I only saw it because a video I wanted to watch mentioned it and it ended up being pretty great, it’s really well made.

I’ve been putting off watching Your Name for years at this point, is it as good as everyone online says it is?

I binge-watched Wonder Egg Priority on Saturday, on one hand it is charming as fuck with a great cast of characters while also being very empathetic with a range of difficult topics, on the other

That being said, the trans representation in this anime is great and the good stuff, specially in the first half, is so good it’s probably gonna stick to me for a while.

I also watched Perfect Blue for the first time and that was also great, I’ve managed to go in without being spoiled anything and it was a ride, that’s for sure.

Yeah, and both this feeling and the wealth inequality are only gonna get bigger and bigger as time goes by, that’s capitalism.

But there is still hope, a government and state of the working class, for the working class, where the capitalists are the ones oppressed, and not us. A society where profit is not the goal anymore, where the global south is not explored until they drop dead, where the poor and homeless can get what they need, where people can stop worrying about surviving and start living, where we are not a product anymore, but human beings.

This can only happen if people start organizing and start learning what do to and how.

How rich comming from someone that doesnt even understand how bullshit ancap is as an ideology.

Also, no one was claiming this piece of shit is a nazi or a fascist.

How about you iluminate us on how the fuck is someone that hates fascists an actual fascist?

VLC gave me trouble last year so I ended up using Haruna. The only thing I miss is downloading subtitles, but I can use VLC for that, everything else I think Haruna is near perfection.

Last warning for what? lol

It’s not difficult to understand that saying “his autistic asshole” implies that being autistic is bad and is being used as a slur against him. I am autistic, fuck using this type of language.

And just in case you think I’m defending Elon, I’m a communist, fuck him.

What the fuck are you on about? I genuinely don’t follow. I explained twice now why what you said is problematic.

When you say “his autistic asshole”, you’re using autism as an insult against him, which has absolutely nothing to do with why he’s a piece of shit. It’s extremely insensitive to do that.

He can shove that X right up his autistic asshole.

Elon can go fuck himself, but don’t use autism as an insult, ever.

GE probably didn’t had the time to update or simply forgot, might be a good idea to ask on the Nobara channel in his Discord server
