You make it sound so negative, lol . I meant it in a good way. It probably is art, but I'm not knowledgable enough to be the judge of that.

I first thought "what a weird mountains did the scanner produce". But then I read your text and it makes it even better. This is almost like art, it really makes you investigate and create your own story around it.

But the big question is, did google provide good answers for the third tab?

Exactly. And that's where all the interest for our information comes from. Because it almost feels like you're writing to yourself and all recipients are anonymous, you spill a lot.

I was the same. I shared a lot of (personal) stuff. Now I try to be a bit more thoughtful about it. If people would find out who I am, would I be comfortable with the things I shared. And can the things I share be compiled to something that points towards me? And then I decide if I still want to post it.

Very nice photo. I like the colors and the peek through the flowers. Really well done. And indeed I hope this will be a step towards a more active community.

Really, you're going to quote a comedy website/image? It also even depends on what they mean with "dangerous". If they mean dangerous for the passengers (which is a viable assumption since how many deaths are caused by hot air balloons excluding the persons traveling with the hot air balloon?) this could even be a true graph. So hold you "offended" feeling and just laugh at the joke at hand.

On macOS you need to do that quite a couple of times. Changing settings, installing stuff to run in the background, install stuff to open open login, etc. So it is there. Furthermore a lot of programs and guides for linux are written to make it easy so they use sudo but you don't always have to run it as root. But not doing so usually requires more steps. So linux is more restricting but to circumvent that, people use sudo a bit too much.

Blocking outgoing traffic isn't needed. But was mere a headsup if that is something you've alread setup. What router do you have? Usually when you open a port there is a dropdown menu or checkboxes for what kind of connection the port opening is allowed.

If your forgejo host needs to connect to the outside world, you can open the port for incomming traffic only for related and established traffic. That way when somebody wants to connect to your port as a new connection it will fail. So when somebody has bad intentions, it will not work unless you've already connected to them in the first place. You need to permit outgoing traffic from forgejo if you block outgoing traffic.

Sorry can't help. I'm here for the tips as well. (Follow post).

Yes, I do. Sometimes I disagree with something but I know my opinion will not be appreciated and I will be called names for just a different opinion. Often, it's not that I out those opinions in public but I just think them to myself but let other people be as they are. But that nuance will not come across online.

You're right that they are miles ahead of other companies regarding communication and opt-out. And indeed it's rare that they will adhere to your choice when they implement new functions. For new users it's good to know that they perhaps want to switch this data collection off. Maybe it's a knee jerk reaction from my side: wanting to increase privacy and seeing this message brought up some worries. Especially because other companies started the same. Google also disguises stuff for better privacy or security, but in the end it's just to prevent users from blocking their data analytics.
