On desktop FF I run NoScript and Ublock Origin. The functions of pretty much all the other privacy-oriented extensions are already covered by those two.
On mobile I just use Tor Browser with Vanadium as a backup in case Tor won't properly display a page (and allowing the JS doesn't help).
They charge for the mobile app. I believe it is a one-time fee of $8. It’s a really fair value in my opinion. They even upgraded to 2.0 and let everyone so so for free. No regrets on my end supporting them.
Regarding photos, which app do you use as gallery? Because as we can see in app store that app (apple) records a lot of data about photos. As alternative I'm using cryptomator. I created a folder in which I move every singles photos from native photos app and manage it through native files app (records few data unlike photos app), but as you can imagine it's not so handy
Honestly, I’ve been stuck on Apple Photos, but turned on ADP (Advanced Data Protection). ente.io is the only other option I found somewhat adequate, but I haven’t pulled the trigger to switch to it just yet. I guess I should add that to my list!
Do you have any specific info on what Apple records in regards to the photos app? Would love to read more.
Nope, just based on what Apple indicates in their privacy reports within App Store. For instance, they link these data for each identity: contacts, identifiers and user content.
Yes, ente.io it's an option. I test it, and works well but it's not what I essentially need: an offline gallery app, security and privacy oriented. Would be great :)
Louis Rossman on YouTube did a pretty good job explaining his side of the story of what was happening with GrapheneOS and the developer for it and why he was stepping away from the project even though it's an amazing project. This was a week ago I believe so I'm not sure what else happened but I guess some communication problems with the developer and the community.
When I visit the link with JavaScript disabled I get blocked by a site stating "Please wait while your request is being verified..." and then nothing happens even though the actual site behind that screen displays fine without JavaScript.
Are you using a VPN? Can you share a screenshot? I don't use CloudFlare, but my host does block users which are from IP addresses which have previously been used for abuse.
Depends on your risk profile, really. It'll technically leak out the DNS name your using internally in order to generate the cert. But, to get a cert from anything (if not wildcard) you'll have to do this if you don't want to spin up your own CA.
I don't see why you couldn't just get a wildcard certificate that doesn't include any hostnames, if you handle your traffic on a single Caddy reverse proxy anyways.
Ah, got it!
I'll look into it, AFAIK caddy autogenerates all certs for each site, so probably I'll have to manually create and import the wildcard one.
Besides the typical privacy-oriented Firefox extensions, I loveSidebery. It's by far the best tree-style tab add-on I've ever seen. Beautiful and powerful.
You can organize your tabs into panels (little side tabs for tabs :P) and groups (collapsible tab folders for organization inside a panel). You can set colors, set containers, move to panels and windows. You can duplicate, unload, clear cookies. You can flatten trees and mute tabs. You can set up automatic snapshots to manage your sessions.
I use Narwhal daily to access Reddit content and it took a lot of searching through various apps before I settled on that one. If they drop support for 3rd party apps, I’m out, the official app sucks. Can we just get Google Reader back? Everything started going wrong in the world after they discontinued that.
I'm not good at chess at all, I only recently learned how to play so the only other website I know of is chess.com but I don't know what their app is like
On my PC I use ungoogled chromium with UBlock origin mainly for online purchases etc, FF with UBlock and NoScript for email and github type things and Librewolf with UBlock for general searches and my webUI stuff on my home server
On my phone I constantly switch between Bromite, DDG Firefox and Mull with UBlock on the FF and Mull
For search engines I constantly switch between DDG, Searx, Startpage, Qwant, Swisscow, Ecosia and Brave and sometimes Google when I'm really strugglingtpo find things but I can't remember the last time I needed it. Its great being able to switch search engines on the fly with FF based browsers and bangs on DDG
I hate monopolies and being over reliant on a single entity so I try to have a bit of variation wherever I can
