Ok, so you're choosing to drink in the Nazi bar, that tolerates Nazi regulars, and, in fact, gives them money. That's _a_ choice...
I take your point about Trump media monopolies, but you do realise there are _other_ platforms out there that _don't_ support actual Nazis?

"If Nazis frequent your bar, and you don't kick them out, more Nazis will come, the rest of your clientele leaves, and your bar will become a Nazi Bar." ~ as the saying goes.
Substack is a Nazi bar.
It _literally_ funds Nazis.

RE: https://mastodon.social/@RonSupportsYou/116884314571843749
Trump wants his MAGA donors who buy media corporations to monopolize all sources of information. We lost several trusted media outlets that are no longer trustworthy. Useful idiots help Trump by attacking Substack, which publishes many excellent people who express their thoughts there.

Alright, so say you torsocks lynx ( #KU ) #ProjectGutenberg. Alternately, you could use highest security #TorBrowser with #noscript. But have you tried #Vanguards #Whonix GW with #vlc ? There is a lot that can be done with vlc for media that wouldn't work in a tor browser (netscape-plus) with vanguards. You would think that there is more anonymity because more people use the more popular #browser / #terminal -plus method but there are trade-offs with functionality and less data leaking. Is less data leaking a form of fingerprint? @mokancan

Formerly, when housing stock was in the control of the local authority, you could make FoI requests for important documents regarding your home. However, that right didn't follow when our homes were transferred to RSLs. Please consider signing and sharing this petition to restore that right. https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/661507
