What constitutes Usage Data. Is it sharing the posts I view, communities I subscribe to etc?

Does paying for a premium version stop this data being collected?

    I am so happy whenever I see people asking more about privacy practices. It makes me feel like the fight is not so hopeless after all.

      I feel the same way. As someone who studies and works in cyber security I love teaching people about how to stay safe or at least as safe as possible.

      Some people don’t go the degree I go to just to keep my stuff secure. I use hardened Arch kernels and I hardly even use arch my entire time I spend on a PC is through a VM. I have 2 computers one just for windows and gaming and then one for Linux and cyber security and coding stuff

      I hate dual booting and do not like windows being close to my Linux install so I keep them separate on two different computers 😂

      Other than doing 3D printing and rendering stuff all I do is study malware and writing my own programs.
