      Hah, too late. You’re already being linguistically fingerprinted by your grammar and word choice. Only option now is to not comment on public forums anymore I guess. 😩

    I’m in the same boat. I feel like going any further than Newborn Paranoid and you start sacrificing so much of your time, money and convenience it’s not worth it anymore.

    I’ve wanted to meet FSF member in real life for a long time. No luck so far.

    As for Stallman, I find it sad that he has been right about many things. I will not do what he does but I appreciate the fact that someone like him exists and still fights for what he believes in.

    Between conservative and newborn paranoid. I use Fedora and Firefox, but (microg) LineageOS and F-Droid on my phone. Also I don’t know what half of those apps are but I’d like to use matrix.

    I’m ashamed to say I brushed shoulders newborn paranoid before realizing I’m too much of a dumbass and then toned it back to Tech Conservative. Though I randomly use Tor for absolutely no reason other than just being a masochist I guess

    Definitely tech conservative. I’m aware of all the problems with big tech and closed source software but I’m not going to jump through major hoops to make sure I’m adhering to Stallman’s principles.

    Tech conservative, although I have to admit that I like MacOS a lot. When it comes to Linux, I use and love Debian

    Somewhere between Tech Conservative and FSF Member.

    I don’t care about Stallman as a person. I care about being able to use the software I like and not get spied on, and the FSF actively works to ensure I can do that, so even if trying to use all FSF-approved software isn’t practical now they’re still helping to make things better. They are an important counterbalance to the bullshit.

    I’m probably a tech conservative. I prefer FOSS, but will use proprietary software if I absolutely have to. Also I use arch btw
