1·13 days agoEvery time I have to use Windows I am amazed how Microsoft is ruinning it. Ads, unconsisitent UI, bad UX forcing you to be part of their Microsoft365 services shit.
A friend of mine had his Desktop sync on a OneDrive account without really knowing why. And sometime the whole shit got desynchronized and it’s files and folders disapeard. The fix was to restart his machine while being connected to the internet :D
Another usecase for Bitcoin and Monero ! Pirate needs to be sovereign from state money !
I block all ads, I rather tips some moneroj or sats to creators, buy some merch, etc. From my point of view giving 5$ to a creator will be more profitable for him/her than watching a hell lot of ads
Mobile operating systems like Android are way more sandboxed than traditional desktop OS. Even though the situation has improved on desktop, especially on macOS and some GNU/Linux distros, sandboxing is more of an iOS/Android thing.
On Windows, most people are admin users, which is a role with admin privileges. You’re not running these by default on macOS or GNU/Linux, and you’re not allowed to on your mobile. Both Android and iOS require an exploit to root/jailbreak to get admin privileges.
This doesn’t mean that macOS, Linux, Android, and iOS can’t get any malware. But by default, a phone OS gives apps very little permissions. Of course, apps can ask for them and trick the user into giving them. Some permissions give higher privileges, and you don’t want every app to have those.
So, no, what you want is education, not an app with privileges to verify everything is okay. I don’t say antivirus are useless, but you have to realize what it means to offer another app all these privileges. Fortunately, Hypatia has pretty basic permissions, but that means it also makes it less efficient than modern antivirus, as it works more basically.
Simply reboot your phone often and don’t install shady stuff. It won’t prevent the NSO Group from selling a spyware with 4 0-days exploits to a Nation State to spy on your device, but Hypatia won’t either.
