  • If you are willing to break from Proton email like I did, I think mailbox.org + Anonaddy.io + Thunderbirds has been pretty good for me. I still do use Proton VPN though.

  • What open-source Android apps should people know about?

  • Yup, used this a lot until I started using KDE Connect more.

  • Unfortunately it comes down to luck, you can check this crowd-sourced list to see if your banking app works. Users report whether or not they had (sandboxed) play services installed and what settings they toggled.

    You won't be able to use GPay/Wallet at all due to lack of SafetyNet.

  • On browser view you can't, but I switched to desktop view and it came up. The settings page on browser is fucking embarrassing.

  • I mean, outside of posting a few pics of college events, I don't think most of my friends post pictures to Instagram. Hell, some of them like me don't even have Instagram/major social media anymore.

    Before I left Insta, I didn't even bother to follow friends/irl people I know because I'd rather talk to them in person that shit's dumb, I really only looked at memes, silly reels/vids, and fanart of stuff. Like 90% of Gen Z is only on social media for content and lols, not to update each other on their lives

    I talk to my friends in person. We share pictures of shit we do in life to each other in group chats, but 95% of what we do was done as a group anyway. We don't really feel the need to let randos/online friends know every thing we're doing all the time.

  • Thank you for sharing your experience as a kid, it's the kind of stuff that I'm writing this paper for in the first place! If I do make it publicly accesible, I'll share it on Lemmy for those who wish to read it. I made this account for that purpose honestly.

  • I don't play Guilty Gear, but it's impossible to not see content about it, but I do know about Bridget and Testament, and GG has some fantastic characters and designs from what I've seen. I do love Bridget and Testament's designs. I have seen a video talking about how the fighting game scene being so open with tournaments and based on skill has allowed queer players to flourish. Thank you for your input!

  • I can try to look at some cozy games, although I think that the reason why these types of games appeals to LGBTQ+ gamers is because they're typically indie games, which have a higher chance of having queer chracters or the creators themselves are queer. I do plan to note how games will have diverse gender options, but then forget to change things that you mentioned.

  • I know about Splatoon 3, as I play the games myself! Acht is also nonbinary (or uses they/them), so there's that too. Thank you for the Spryo input, I'll check it out as I don't often see people talking about asexual characters in games. Same for the GLAAD study, I have to look at that now.

  • I do plan to talk about some online gaming, as many of the sources I found talk about World of Warcraft's issues with LGBTQ+ players and how they struggled to make a space for themselves. Thank you for your input!
