This also leads to a point about privacy in general. Most people are constantly bombarded with depressing news articles that make the world look gloomer, or are endlessly scrolling through social media which prevents you from focusing on other things in your life, which is why you should care about privacy (well, if you care about those things).
If you encounter someone who doesn't care about privacy, please tell them about this.
There's a big advantage using Linux in that you'll get a huge dopamine detox because there are no advertisements and tracking on your computer.
There's always the browser, yes. But most distributions ship Mozilla Firefox which have some tracking protection at least.
There's just something oddly peaceful about your desktop just not changing... you're disconnected from the world, but you feel free. I don't feel like I'm at the mercy of anyone else.

After reading the whole GrapheneOS and Mailbox.org fiasco, I'm considering changing providers. At this point, I'm not sure if any reputable privacy-focused email providers that support custom domains exist anymore. To be clear, I don't want encrypted email. I just want plain and simple IMAP/POP3 access, nothing more, nothing less (with DMARC, SPF, and DKIM setup correctly of course).
Anyone have any suggestions? I'd appreciate any help.
