On bazzite, you also can. It just works a bit different because it's an atomic distro

The extension you're thinking of is AdNauseum, been using it instead of uBlock origin for a while, iirc it's built on top of ublock as well
I think Wero is supposed to become the replacement for all of that, though I'm not sure if it's gonna have similar features. For now it's only available in a few countries unfortunately.
It's just because of entropy. More entropy is more secure.
Also sure, it's you getting hacked, but it's the service that got hacked that will have all kinds of news stories written about their weak password requirements.

It's right there under the header
I don't think that was meant to be humorous.
It can alsoake fes that perform way worse than they have anything to. See yandere simulator for example
Yeah, bazzite, or any atomic distro, is not something I would recommend to someone coming from windows. It's just too different in some ways.
Been running bazzite myself as a fairly experienced linux user and love it though.
You don't, there's privacy respecting ways of delivering notifications in android.
Also, a 24/7 connection to a server isn't nearly as bad as you might think.
The connection isn't active the whole time, it only uses any significant amount of battery if there's actually data being sent or received. You likely already have quite a few of them anyway, how do you think systems normally listen for push notifications?
Besides all that, I read in other comments that the privacy issue was the device id firebase needs. Obviously apple also needs some kind of device id, otherwise how do they know where the notifications are going?
Did some searching, yup apple also needs a unique identifier:
When it’s time to send a notification, you generate a request that contains the notification data and a unique identifier for the user’s device.
From https://developer.apple.com/documentation/usernotifications/setting-up-a-remote-notification-server
That doesn't have anything to do with how you install the app.
I mean yeah, but that doesn't make the title any more true.
