Tech conservative, with a bit of full-blown tech paranoid. I come across as a weird combination of tech-savvy and complete luddite for the laundry list of services I don't use. Not because they're proprietary, but because they offer me nothing I want.
Disclaimer: I use Arch, btw.
I feel like a weirdo compared to this scale. I use Ubuntu on my desktop and steamos on the steam deck but I also main chrome for my browser because as much as everyone else hates Google (rightly so) I actually don't mind their browser and I like the centralization of their services tied with having a Gmail account. And I have a pixel 4a. I'm weirdly into tech but I'm mostly a software Luddite.
Newborn Paranoid 100%. I both fear and desire the slippery slope. Also, what's the browser next to LibreWolf?
The only tech normie icon I have installed on any personal devices is whatsapp. The rest are pure cancer.
I tick a few boxes across the rest of that spectrum. I land mostly in tech conservative.
I'd say I'm tech conservative although I am using Debian on my laptop.
mainly newborn paranoid, yet i have some qualities from tech conservative or tech paranoid
i'm definetly newborn paranoid, but i actually belive opera and opera GX are great browsers nowdays
I'd probably fall into the Tech Paranoid if it weren't for gaming. I'm honestly rooting for Steam to jumpstart the Linux gaming ecosystem even more.
Am a tech conservative that watched Stallman's Ted talk and watch(Ed) luke smiths. Not not gonna lie tho luke is maybe a bit wacko but he's entertaining and often brings interesting points .
Im somewhere between ultra paranoid and conservative...
Im probably somewhere between the first four panels. I’m debating about at least partly using Chromium again since some stuff I do doesn’t work on FF and like macOS and Windows the most since they (mostly) just work out of the box. However I’m not comfortable with WhatsApp etc, am using Ubuntu and Arch on some machines and do prefer Open source for some software categories. And for some stuff I’m manually checking the source code and am compiling it myself since I’m paranoid. (Mostly password manager and similar).
I'm split between 1 and 2
Tech conservative moving to newborn paranoid, depending on who I feel I need to hide from at the moment. I'm radically opposed to the concept of private corporations anyway.
I remember there being one more version with TempleOS users at the end
Lol last one is extremely funny. But I'm also probably covering the spectrum from "tech conservative" to "tech paranoid", ticking boxes of each of the three
I'm a tech conservative... 😏
Dang, I just got stereotyped so hard as the tech conservative. Right on the nose with zorinOS and brave/firefox lmao
I'm some mix of the last 3
I guess that makes me a tech conservative with a hint of newborn paranoid, based on the provided. But I don't think the name "tech conservative" is very fitting at all. To me those words would describe someone has been using Linux for 20 years and hates everything that is new just out of principle and will never change their mind (e. g. containerized apps, Wayland, systemd etc.). I couldn't be further away from that stereotype.
