Rusty as in the Rust programming language.

Nice

I’ve been using FreeTube for a while and it’s great. It allows me to customise my feed to only include content from my subscriptions and filter out any recommendations designed to keep me on the platform for as long as possible.

I think this happens because people believe that ad blockers are “too good to be true”. That was what I first thought when first getting an ad blocker, that there was going to be some kind of “catch” like slowing down websites, making them less functional or being malicious. But it turns out they actually improve performance, rarely affect functionality and are even recommended by the FBI because they protect against malicious advertising.

Congrats! As a Linux user of nearly 6 years, I hope you feel welcome here.

Well said. Privacy shouldn’t be thought of as “all or nothing” but instead as a spectrum, because being completely private is practically impossible for most people and that mentality can lead you to not trying at all.
