You might be right I searched it up and found that protonmail doesn’t encrypt header lines which isn’t great. The f-droid point is also valid. But unfortunately there is no decentralised email providers, even tuta is still centralised. I would be interested if there are any options for decentralised mail.

On another note regardless of whether I’m using proton or tuta it’s hardly ever end to end encrypted since everyone I’m sending the mail to uses Gmail.

Yeah I’ve also heard malware bytes is good. I heard if from thenewoil.org.

I guess I’m in the privacy enthusiast section. Although I do use searxng. And I will admit I do use some things from the top layer, like YouTube and steam. Also i don’t like how proton is a section above tuta aside from quantum safe encryption which is meaningless at the current state of technology (I agree that could change soon) aside from that proton mail is just as good as tuta.

I use everything from the privacy enthusiast section on a daily basis except for addy.io and tuta since i use proton for email and email aliasing.

I don’t really mind which way I donate but I want to ensure I donate by giving the most money to lemmy and not to whatever platform is hosting it.

While I am not particularly interested in setting up crypto, aside from that which platform would you prefer I donated from?

I’m totally on engineeringgamings side. Both apple and Google are both bad companies imo but the Android operating system is probably the best thing Google has made and you have the ability to use it without any of the Google services.

I take advantage of side loading on a daily basis with repository’s like f droid and accresent as well as obtanium for installing apps from the source. And for the few apps I need i can use the aurora store all with never signing in with a google account.

For me the main feature of Android is side loading and I can take full advantage of that with no google account. In my opinion the idea of an ecosystem is a negative, i want the ability to not be locked in to any specific hardware or software vendor.

That’s the problem I don’t log off. It would be good if lemmy could limit the amount of new posts you see each day to only include say the top 10 posts from your subscriptions because yeah… I spend more time here than I really should be.

And here i am on lemmy when I should be in bed. I don’t even need algorithms to keep me on my phone.

Yeah I need read and write, I will look at posix for Ocis though.

I’ve heard of seafile but i remember something about it turned me off, ocis on the other hand sounds awesome, owncloud but written in go? I will definitely look into that and thanks for the recommendation.

That’s right I need native drive mounting into dolphin and Macos finder. Seafile doesn’t have it for any linux file Explorer which means it won’t work for me.

I think Ocis does have it though.

Oh sorry for assuming you didn’t already know that. That’s awesome you have graphene os, my phone doesn’t support any custom rom’s really.

I totally agree there should be a list, it would be very nice to know.

I haven’t used nextcloud but it seems frustrating that there isn’t any really good selfhosted file cloud. Nextcloud is really chunky and inefficient but it seems to be the best option despite that.

I guess if it doesn’t say they have permission to take screenshots then they don’t and won’t take screenshots. Or maybe exodus is wrong (i kinda doubt that) but I’m not knowledgeable to make any proper decision.

At any rate I would recommend not having any of those apps on your phone particularly facebook or temu. but if you still need to use them just use the website since that has much less permissions for your device and definitely won’t take screenshots.

Checkout exodus privacy in case you didn’t already know about it in order to check if any app you have has permissions to take screenshots or anything else.

Still both don’t work for me. Great idea though.

I like the stance on fining big corporations and taxing corporations. And I think donations would work very well too as long as a focus of donations was built into the education system. I would need to do some more research to see weather or not that would be enough money since so much government money currently comes from taxpayers. In almost every country.

I don’t understand why so many privacy respecting vpns just lack port forwarding. It’s really frustrating and I don’t know why mullvad would remove it.

That was a really good read and I thoroughly enjoyed reading it. I loved the day in a life sections that was really interesting. I just have a few questions mainly I don’t really understand why full on privacy results in a perfect socialist democracy and why a complete lack of privacy would result in a 1984. I believe you could still instated a somewhat fair democracy even if there was a complete lack of privacy. And also I find it difficult to see how there could be free healthcare and education without taxes you said there were other ways that money could be collected, I would be very interested to here what those other ways are. But still overall that was a beautiful piece of writing and thank you for showing me to considere a world with complete privacy and a complete lack of.

I hope that’s a joke.

Proxmox definitely has a harder set-up i am currently doing it right now and I’ve found it a bit of a learning curve, but it is definitely the ultimately better and more fun option if you ask me ;)

Someone should correct me if I’m wrong but auto update should be as easy as scheduling the commands for apt or whatever package manager your using to update.
