• Is it still safe to download Firefox via Mozilla FTP?

  As recommended by privacyguides.org, I'm trying to avoid that download token from the main link. I'm jw if those files on the FTP are just as safe/secure & all the same w/o the token still. Also, will I get one from future updates regardless? Source: over 1 year ago

• Jetpack Compose: Horrifically slow in text input?

  As a follow-up, if jetpack can be used to build real and performant apps, does anyone have a good recommendation for a tutorial? I was trying to follow the demos linked of android.com, but it seemed as if there were vast differences between what they were saying to do, and what was in a newly bootstrapped project and the gradle files.

• Anyone else having Malwarebytes say Google.com is malware?

  This seems to be effecting all of Google's products. I can't get into any of my G-Suite sites, GMail accounts, google.com, android.com, etc. From any device that has Malwarebytes installed. The constant popups from Malwarebytes are annoying, but on a positive note, it is letting me see just how many apps on my computer phone in to Google. NZXT is the biggest offender, and seems to be constantly hitting up... Source: over 1 year ago
