Can't you literally just title it "Q & A"??? What is this secret code we have to search for in a 1 inch picture......

[@BroonParker]

I keep seeing this comment.
Do they read the comments at all or just not bothered?

[@englischvideos539]

I second the opinion that Q&A should be prominent in the title

[@ichibot-app]

Even after the intro - I still have no idea if this is a Q&A or not......

[@henrriquetordoya1637]

It isn't but the number is small i don't blame you

[@ichibot-app]

@@henrriquetordoya1637 turns out it is tho

[@artmispotter3571]

thanks for the time you put in to make these videos.

At 15:03 the advantage of a simple proxy is that it does not double encrypt the traffic like a VPN does since nowadays 99% of websites are already HTTPS/TLS encrypted. This results in faster speeds and lower latency than VPN's, also proxy IP's tend to be able access most sites where VPN's may be blocked. Basically proxies are just as secure as VPN's when using a secure DNS.

[@gamer-gw9iy]

ISP proxies have great utility. I'm not sure why you don't see it? It's the #1 tool for small businesses and independents to collect market data

Listening from RSS I thought Henry was recording from a hall in the mines of Khazad dum

Doesn't the flatpak version of Thunderbird protect against malware infections because of the sandbox?

[@arir43]

There was no number in the thumbnail that I saw. I prefer to listen in a podcasts app and mistakenly selected this video thinking it was a normal one.

[@unixviking]

I use Droid-ify instead of F-Droid

[@marco31]

Me, too

[@Jaymac0929]

Obtainium is another Option 🙂

If you guys gonna keep on intentionally make the QnA look like the episodes, i'm unsubbing and never gonna watch any episode again.
ALL except one comment is about this issue and you guys only replied to the comment not about this issue. This is a joke...
