I guess I worded my sentence weirdly. If you get along with other people with a different mindset, then you're definitely not an extremist. What I criticize is extremism, not necessarily every ideology. The problem is when it becomes an extreme, that makes you hate others, etc.

All extremists act the same way. They shelter themselves in a few strong beliefs, and hate whatever is different, different opinions, etc. Look at the nazis, fascists, communists, anarchists, this is all the same. This is why politics suck, because it's basically a mean for people to be divided, make clans and hate each other.

Thanks for the detailed answer, I didn't know about that.

That makes sense. Would there be a way to re-use this same session if the cookie has been deleted though? I know that closing the browser isn't ideal, but if both the cookie and the login session are needed, if you remove one of them it should be enough.

Right, I honestly didn't think of this possibility as I reboot every day.

If your browser is set to delete cookies on closing it, your sessions should be gone anyway when you open it again. I don't logout, personally, I trust Firefox's cookie jar to isolate them by website, which makes them much less useful.

hoping it is secure I think the key is here. WhatsApp is so convenient, because everyone has it, that it better be secure in people's minds. Otherwise it means you have to go and compare different alternatives, explain them to your contacts, etc. This is a struggle that I've seen around here multiple times already.

Here are some results from my Pinebook Pro, with compsize:

Where there is easily-compressible data (/), the gains are definitely here. I've even reached as low as 49% on my main machine, also with ZSTD set to 3.

However, where the data is not so easily compressible like /home, where I mostly have music and games, the compression is almost non existent.

I haven't measured it, but I'm pretty sure there is a performance improvement even on the Pinebook Pro's weak CPU. Reading 100MB of data and uncompressing it is faster than having to read 200MB directly, especially on very weak/slow disks.

Since enabling compression (which isn't on by default), I definitely noticed an improvement in general responsiveness. Should you ever want to give it another try, set it up during the install and you should be fine.

I've been using it for many years now, can't complain. With compression enabled it can be just as fast as with ext4, at least for "desktop" usage.

It's honestly amazing. Snapshots make it almost unbreakable, and you're still living on the bleeding edge if you're using Tumbleweed. This setup is perfectly usable on other distros too, but with openSUSE you get it by default, which for me is really nice.

And the chameleon is adorable too :)
