Probably because it's hosted on a Windows machine.

As a former Windows user: this is true, you can disable most of the features you don't like. I was doing that for many Windows versions, from 98 to 10.

However it was indeed fighting an uphill battle: there was more and more BS with every update, I felt that I couldn't trust my computer, I had to check forums in order to know what's the newest thing to turn off.

I am happier now without Windows, even though I had to learn a few new apps.

What's your browser-Bitwarden setup?

The same flow works for me on desktop (firefox+bw plugin).

It's right there in the article.

According to McDonald, "streaming music fraud is not, to be brutally honest, the most glamorous or profitable form of villainy" because "streaming rewards accumulate in tiny micro-transactions." The only way to get rich is to scale the shady streaming by becoming a business—it seems possible due to similarities in thousands of fake album designs that all the labels McDonald flagged could be under one licensor—but even then, "the larger the scale, the easier it is to detect," McDonald suggested.

How do you find new music? (if you do)

A better solution is to disable vault lock. It is very much usable (mostly talking about browser extension).

It does*.

However when I'm trying to login with a passkey in my mobile browser, Bitwarden prompt isn't showing up. I don't know what's wrong.

TLDR: no

Interesting to see how no one bothered to read the article.

Funny you say that, I've been looking into getting one recently. They seem great.

No judgement here; but it always bothers me when a laptop only comes with Windows preinstalled, when 1) it makes the device more expensive, and 2) I don't need it.

That's my situation, except I haven't deleted my partition yet, mostly because it sits on a separate physical disk. Maybe one day…

Not being able to see my old messages on desktop is a privacy benefit? I don't think you are correct.
