Terminator for me. It has tiles and tabs and does everything I need.

Not sure, whether it is relevant for this thread, but my phone (POCO F3) does not get any notifications if Google Play Services has no access to the internet. I scratched my head for a while to find out, why I never got them on mobile data. Not sure, what it does, if you disable the store.
Ah, F-Droid did it. Thank you so much!
Happy days!
Nope, Desktop computer with Linux, Firefox with uBlock, noScript etc.
I'll look into it, thank you!
Also, don’t use YouTube directly, use Invidious or Piped, and this particular issue would be gone.
It's the convenience. If you want to run a channel, you're kind of damned to sell your soul. 🙃 The question is for how much you'd sell yourself out completely.
Not sure, if these apps run on a desktop computer, though, which is my main workhorse.
So I may try out Firefox's sandboxing capabilities. That should take care of cookies, but I am not sure about fingerprinting.
Do you have the Amazon app installed on the same device
Linux pc. There is no Amazon nor YouTube app for that, that I know of.
what prompted you to look up the horses stuff?
Nothing really. I am more interested in dogs, but wanted to know how other animals are trained and possibly learn something new from their techniques.
I could try Firefox's sandboxing, maybe.
I use DokuWiki for this type of thing. With a few add-ons it is nicely configurable (galleries, discussions etc), could be run from any webspace, and doesn't need a database. You can have ACLs that make sure that only registered users get access. But it is a bit of a DIY solution, and takes a bit of work to set up.
My oldest "security camera" of this type has been online 24/7 since June 2019 and permanently connected to a charger of the smallest type I could find at that time. The battery still holds a charge when I take the phone down for cleaning. Not sure how old the phone itself is (a small Kyocera), probably a 2014 or 2015 model. So, for my requirements, I'd say, it's reasonably reliable.
OTOH, you may be right, and they don't make them like they used to in the olden days, haha.

I use external hard drives. Two of them, and they get rsynced every time something changes, so there's a copy if one drive should fail. Once a month, I encrypt the whole shebang with gpg and send it off into an AWS bucket.
