I wanted it to work because of its place in the timeline, before everything else and provide more history.
This one time I got this catch22 situation with a service.. Turned out password reset in the Android app accepted 32 characters but in the browser less.
As a #2 person, when my level-of-current-knowledge hits a ceiling and I ask for technical advice in forums or lemmy or even social media, it often comes from a #1 person.
Assuming its specialized knowledge few other #2 have.
Half the time I get an answer (about what and how) AND background explanation (giving context and WHY).
But half the other time a #1 doesnt realize easy things for them are hard for me. When they are miles ahead their answer assumes I have a host of other skills already in place. But I dont know what I don't know so I dont ask for them.
But ... every answer from a helpfull stranger is appreciated. Just bridging knowledge is hard.
For my family my setup slightly different for reasons in other comments:
- do change browsers away from Chrome or Edge
- do change search engines
- allow cookies
- drop tracking surveillance traffic at the network level with something like pihole or nextdns
Now do support for Notepad++ plugins and language linting 😁😎😂
Openstreetmap 👀 👀 👀 👀
Sorry but I fail to understand the relation between your question and the additional text.
Are the bulletpoints requirements for a less over-engineered attempt ?
Or are they examples of the current situation?
And just software without protocol seems. .... oversimplification.
This baffled me to no end, but the -P flag did the trick.
eg Win11: "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" -P as a shortcut.
Got used to always start with profile picker.
Had this once at a retail store while paying. Entering PIN without muscle memory. .... Weird and almost made 3 errors which would have blocked my card.
I prefer FOSS as much as possible and didn't read all comments on YouTube but ... desktop applications are not SAAS. eg LibreOffice and Adobe apps. But I guess it only requires a different title as the list itself is useful
