Hardly ever on Big Web
It's been a little over a month since I found out about Gemini. I am hardly ever browsing the http web.
Not even trying!
The odd thing: I wasn't even trying to stop browsing. It just happened. The posts on Gemini are enough for me -- there are a few deeply technical users, and enough varied non-tech posts to keep my interest.
In fact, when accidentally clicking on an http link I immediately click the back button in disgust.
Flounder
I am grateful for the easy onboarding via flounder.online. However I am feeling a bit stupid using an http web site to edit these little gemlog entries.
I am planning to switch to a tilde server shortly.
Banking
This really hurts. I generally use waterfox with Privacy Badger, Ghostery and uBlock Origin to pretend I have any privacy at all. However even with these on, I usually have a unique fingerprint
See if your browser has a unique fingerprint
But for banking I have to use Chromium without any privacy at all. Banking sites are the worst - full of weird javascript, trackers and ads. And you are pretty much stuck with it.
Transgressions
I did stop by this amazing site because of all the Gemini postings:
Overall, I am extremely pleased.
