- Signal ^signal.org↗^ - Free, open source, completely end-to-end encrypted messaging that lead by a non-profit.
- Shelter ^f-droid.org↗^ - Use Android's built-in "Work Profile" feature to install or clone apps into an isolated space.
- Simplex ^f-droid.org↗^ - Like Signal but for the more paranoid. Not as good from a UX perspective so I can't recommend it to everyone, but definitely just as good if privacy/security is your ultimate requirement.

yes. use any of the following, in no particular order:
- ecosia.org - A non-profit certified B corp that plants trees by serving ads in your search results. Bing search underneath.
- duckduckgo.com - A privacy friendly search engine. Primarily sourced from Bing but mixes in a few other sources.
- any SearXNG instance - A self-hostable search front-end to various search engines.
- marginalia.nu - specifically 'random' - An independent DIY search engine that focuses on non-commercial content, and attempts to show you sites you perhaps weren't aware of in favor of the sort of sites you probably already knew existed.
already ditched them most of them and moved to self hosting movies, TV shows and music. I'm still paying for music but the latest drama of losing tons of classics on YouTube music due to SESAC licensing has me rethinking what I'm even paying for.
Any sites out there even serving JXL? With a "global usage" of 13%, I don't see many developers wasting their time on it unless there's some niche use case that requires it.
Oh, hey! Wasn't even a problem for me.

Scrubs! [0] [1] [2].
It had a great 8 season run (the 9th season doesn't exist, ignore those who incorrectly say it does). The show was funny, insightful, great dialogue, characters, serious moments and a great cast. Additionally the music choices in each episode were always top-notch. Note that "a handful of songs were replaced in the versions released to streaming services such as Netflix and Hulu due to licensing issues." [3].
Lastly, "IGN gave the first season a perfect score of 10. The seven following seasons were rated, respectively, 9, 9, 9, 8, 7.5, 8.3 and 7.5" [4].

I was excited for it up until I saw what happened. I get the perspective the maintainer might be coming from, but they made a huge deal out of something that shouldn't have been.
Sure, but it’s worth asking why the management is so poor
Could just be incompetence.
Working in a bigger corp and seeing people continuously fail upwards or get hired into positions where they run around like headless chickens - sometimes the reason is leadership putting people in the wrong role and not holding them accountable because its easy to "fudge metrics" and believe things are going well.
The strategy I've seen far too often:
- Deliver a half-working project that is bursting at the seams and requires more work and resources (or introduces a technical debt that most people can't even begin to comprehend).
- Leadership declares it a success because a long enough train wreck takes time to be noticed when you're near the end of the tracks and the people at the front lines are doing everything they can to avoid it.
- Find a new job before the shit hits the fan (typically hold off until your RSU's fully vest) and talk about how you implemented X while saving company Y and how successful it was.
- Leave the place worse off than before.
- The project/implementation starts showing signs of failure and leadership blames others (because the guy who implemented things is now gone and he did things so well how could it possibly be their fault?)
Too often I've seen meetings between management not even understanding what their "core issues" are. How do you even make a business better if you don't even understand your pain points?
It's both fascinating and scary.
Its a bit more nuanced than that. That's like saying "people who wear seat belts still die". Well yes, that's a fact, but intentionally or not, you're making a claim without context and painting a picture in the mind of others that doesn't reflect reality.
