I want to know what kind of apps/programs y’all recommend to people or just use personally. This is just in general, could be anything from a game to a media codec. I personally use Linux but stuff for other operating systems is welcome too.

      Well then, you should know that they aren’t any better. They track and spy on users, and also put ads into the browser itself.

            Oya oya, it seems like you havent read the privacy policy or even bothered to put the entire thing to a summarizer.

              Sure:

Mozilla does receive aggregated data about the recommendations you see and click. We also share aggregated data about the sponsored content you see and click with our third-party ad platform Kevel so advertisers can see how many people click on their articles. This aggregated data does not identify you personally.

                so the local-only recommendations based on anonymized data about things that ublock stops, and the opt-out malware scan?

                thank you for replying with something substantial. thankfully this is all stuff that’s inconsequential and/or easily disabled.
