I live in the Netherlands, where there’s a QR-code-based payment method called iDeal, which you need a Dutch banking app or little code machine thing to use. With my bank, at least, there are a few things you can do with the website that you can’t do with the app, but for day-to-day use the app’s fine.

I used to wear one on the railway. We had these ones that you switch on with a big, loud sliding clasp on it, so if someone starts acting a bit shirty, you could often deter them just by starting the recording (which held the previous 30 seconds or something in its memory).

I’ve had Qwant foisted on me by Firefox and it’s decent enough, I find, no complaints.

You only have to have one if you watch live television or streaming services, or if you use a radio at a workplace. I’ve never had one.

The portions aren’t small, either.

I’ve lived abroad for a few years now but where I lived beforehand, a £3 portion of chips could feed a family of four.

I am NOT asking how do I use a privacy-focused front-end for YouTube, by the way, I am aware they exist.
