I came across CalyxVPN while browsing through F-droid, it seems to be offered by the same people who make CalyxOS. I couldn’t find much discourse about it online, is it reputable enough to use?...
Newb question: what does it really mean when I click “Reject Nonessential Cookies”? Am I really being any more private by rejecting these? Just feels greasy like it’s a workaround for websites to get my information anyway? Should I navigate away from any sites that suggest this cookie configuration?

Today, Raivo launched an update, and after updating all of my entries were completely wiped. I didn’t have a backup, but even if I did you now have to pay in order to...
