For news I would advice using the newstool MiniFlux.
I see Ground News recommended all the time but for some reason i cannot trust it, idk why
I mean it's heavily advertised by YouTubers. And basically everything that sponsors YouTube videos is a scam.
Thank you!
I like it
Thanks!
Why could this not just be a webpage with links instead of an image or PDF
Because I like infographics. :) I'll be putting it on my website.
Y'all should probably stop mentioning proton
As someone who wants to drop Proton VPN and has stopped using their mail in favor of mailbox.org, I think we should still mention them, just with an asterisk. People deserve to make their own choice about if they wish to support him or not. At least it's non-profit now.
I really wanna stop using the VPN and go to Mullvad (since they've proved they have no logs), but they don't offer port forwarding anymore, and the only other option is AirVPN, which had a server seizure in 2015 that they didn't want to disclose until like 2023... (gag order?)
I don't torrent often, but I do occasionally...
What's wrong with proton?
The owner of Proton is publicly a Trump supporter. Never trust a company that publicly supports Trump (e.g. Proton, StickerMule, etc.)
I know there has been some political controversy around them lately, and that for email Tuta is recommended over Proton Mail—I do mention both of these facts in DISENGAGE: Opting Out—and Finding New Options—to Reclaim Your Life from Spammers, Scammers, Intrusive Marketers and Big Tech, which I'm trying to promote through the infographic. But overall I've been happy with Proton's suite of products as compared to the relevant Google products.
mullvad browser was discontinued but ironfox is an up to date fork
It looks like Mullvad still exists ...but last time I checked, it was free and now it's around $5/month?
Thanks for the info, I'll check it out!
Thanks for the info!
