gollark: It *mostly* works and does waaaay less data gathering.
gollark: Yay for Google's reliable products!
gollark: Also adblocking everywhere (except the oh-so-few sites satisfying my acceptable ads criteria), so I wouldn't notice if targeted ad networks did start serving relevant-to-my-speech ads.
gollark: My laptop, which I think has a mike, runs Linux, and my phone runs Lineage without Google services.
gollark: I generally have about two devices with microphones around, but I control the software on them more than usual, so that's okay.
