I've been contemplating switching back to Firefox from Chrome due to the upcoming changes to ad blockers - Is Brave a good choice for this, or should I go back to FF?

I closed my PayPal account years ago as they were constantly withholding my money, charging exorbitant fees, and they attempted to hold a lot of money from my father's business for 6mo whilst they 'investigated' until the threat of legal action suddenly made the problems go away.

Everyone should delete their PayPal accounts, and encourage friends/family to do the same. Shocking business practices, and they only continue to do business because they've often been the status quo, but since dropping them I've never once wished I still used it.

My friend uses Node-RED to automate and run a lot of devices/things in his van (which he lives in). I'm not sure if it's better to not have a programming background, because it's one of the more difficult environments I've helped someone with and the debugging when something wasn't working was really poor, it all felt very un-intuitive.

One of the things I really didn't expect to be Googling in 2021 is 'Best dumb phone 2021'.

After advocating to all my friends that Apple is a beacon of how privacy should be done, I just can't understand how they've made such a hash of this.
