For my ebike I use OSMAnd with Brouter

If by “diverse” you mean “has western conservatives”, then considering how the entire concept of the fediverse is progressive, you’re not going to find many of them here. On Reddit, there’s r/AskPolitics which overall leans liberal and is US centric but is more open to discussion than other subreddits. There’s some other debate subreddits as well which you might be interested in. They’re helpful for developing political views, but after that hearing the same BS from people who have fundamentally different values gets tiring and people leave so that’s why there aren’t many of those spaces.

If you’re open to different viewpoints that are opposed to both Republican and Democrat, leftist instances like lemmy.ml, Hexbear, Lemmygrad, and dbzer0 have that, and they can have very different stances on other issues as well (i.e. Lemmygrad vs dbzer0). They can still be echo-chambery (which is hard to avoid) but they also tend to have more users that are interested in intellectual debate.

As far as what instance actually has the most diverse points of view, I’d say lemm.ee which federates with basically everybody and I’ve seen users there from all over the political spectrum. However, there’s isn’t much in terms of political discussion there compared to other instances.

It works on my phone, I’ve been using it for years. I’m currently using it off of Obtainium though.

And it will be running on Deepin also

Not at all, I don’t eat eggs regularly

I’m glad the Guix leadership is listening to their userbase. I’ve been having an enormous amount of trouble getting Guix to work correctly on aarch64, and I’m not sure how to correctly contribute packages without them getting ignored, both of which are issues that are making me reconsider switching to the Nix ecosystem. However, I like the FOSS focus and configuration language, so hopefully there’s a bigger chance that these issues will get resolved.

Isn’t this just Teams in its normal state?

I’m not sure, that’s the one reason I use Instagram also. You could use something like MyInsta, which blocks ads and I think lets you disable shit like Reels. You could also try using an RSS feed with proxygram, although I’ve found the public instances to be unreliable and I’m not sure if it still works. Otherwise, you’re going to need to somehow convince them to use a certain Mastodon instance instead (offering to host one for your local area might make people more interested, but even then good luck with that).

The Cromite devs said they use ABP instead of uBO because it’s in C++ instead of JavaScript so they can easily implement it, it also has patches to remove some of the weirder stuff

I don’t think it’s a big concern, if a big instance does something stupid people will just move to a different one, and people will also naturally move to instances with communities and moderation policies they prefer over time which will help spread things out

I just got an ad today on youtube.com despite using uBO (also froze the browser for a few moments)

Considering how he runs a business whose goal is to capture the privacy crowd and how a large portion of the privacy crowd is made up of those “Libertarian” tech-bro types, it might be more than just “no clue about American politics”, especially since he’s also doing stuff like promoting Bitcoin through Proton Wallet which is also popular among “Libertarian” tech-bro types, and the article used for marketing that both-sidesed the problems the “left” vs “right” experience and equated the Democrats with the “left”, which is popular among “Libertarian” tech-bro types as well. The 88 in his Reddit username is also suspect regardless of him claiming that it’s there because it’s his birth year. People who know how to operate a business usually aren’t doing it out of stupidity, so I’m not going to give him the benefit of the doubt on this, especially since the entire platform depends on trusting that they aren’t doing anything shady.

For me the main use case for LibreWolf isn’t so much being anonymous as it is wanting a browser that doesn’t have ads and data mining stuff going on and has some additional privacy protections but that also doesn’t get in the way too much in terms of usability. Zen Browser might be a better fit for this use case now since it improves the UI while claiming to not have telemetry, but I haven’t tried it yet. I’m not really concerned about fingerprinting since most sites I use already know who I am since I’m logged into them. If I wanted to be really private though I’d use Tor or Mullvad, but not as a daily driver since I value UX more as long as it’s not invasive.

There’s Vanadium and Cromite which have ad-blocking and strong security and none of the problems Brave has barring Chromium monopoly

On default settings, Firefox’s news feed is suspiciously similar to the stuff I browse, so I don’t trust it at all for privacy without Arkenfox. I like how LibreWolf strips all of that out by default but still lets me loosen the settings so I can install add-ons and keep data I want stored, which I’m not sure that Mullvad browser does. If it’s getting behind on updates though, that would be disappointing, although right now the LW Flatpak is on a newer version of FF than Fedora FF. Mullvad browser is better for anonymity though.

we are all fighting for the same cause

Catering to the “Libertarian” neo-Nazi crowd so they buy your product vs wanting to defend minorities against these sort of people is not the same cause

The genocide is happening under Democratic control through the Biden/Harris administration and the biggest crackdowns on protests are happening in blue states like California and New York possibly even more so than red states like Texas. There is no “kind of” about Harris’s stance on genocide.
