The fuck is "TailOS"
Also what about
- Gentoo
- Alpine
- NixOS
Just to name a few
NordVPN is full of garbage. Use Mullvad, Proton, IVPN or Tailscale instead
Arch and TempleOS being in the same sentence is pretty apt
Both are weirdly religious
apt
Somebody called the Debian users?
No, it's pacman. Debian is apt.
You should zypp it, I hate puns
Oh no a pun thread is emerging!
Made me spit coffee lol
Side note, isn't TempleOS not Linux based?
Seems like the creator (forget his name) had some beef with Linus Torvalds and was originally trying to build something to get away from his software, no?
Edit: yeah, based on the Wikipedia Page, it looks like its not based on the Linux Kernel. Also dev's name was Terry Davis.
thou shalt not use any software written by that rude Finnish man
- God, apparently
No, it's not. I'm making fun of NordVPN for calling it one.
He made it because his schizophrenia made him believe that god told him to make an OS. It's quite a sad story. ):
Yeah, I remember reading about it a few years ago. Guy seems really talented, if kinda crazy and pretty racist. Curious to see where he'd be today if he hadn't lost his marbles.
Pretty sure he was hit by a train or smtn after becoming homeless
Yeah, I don't think it was confirmed to be suicide, but it sure looks a lot like suicide.
I guess what I mean to say is that I wonder what he'd be up to if he hadn't done that.
The glowies want you to think it is Linux based
That means they support Hannah Montana Linux
As a linux user you should know that all VPN companies are as trustworthy as a chronic liar, and therefore not rely on one. So it doesn't matter that they don't support Arch, really. And even good that they don't support Tails.
Arch users, by definition, roll their own Wireguard networks
Of course, I need to access my two different networks from anywhere anyway. And then I can also force all traffic through random proxies.
K so what should I be doing instead
Just use mullvad
Probably TOR.
I hear I2P had a lot of potential, but also a lot of issues. Haven't checked up on that project in a bit. I know it was a BITCH to set up when I tried plinking with it some years ago.
So TOR (despite the latency/speed issues and its own security concerns) is still probably about as good as it gets.
I think people shouldn't be using Tor for daily usage. It just slows down the network for those who actually need it. It would be better if people donated to the Tor project or ran their nodes instead
Completely agree.
Kinda get the vibe that guy I'm replying to is asking for the times when its actually needed. If I've got the wrong mark there and they're looking for daily driving, then Mullvad VPN (or comparable) is probably the better way to go.
Yeah, Mullvad seems to have done the most to prove that they're not harvesting your data. You still have to trust them, but there's evidence that they're trying.
Yea, i2p is slightly more involved than just starting up tor browser, but its not that bad. The real problem for this case is that it doesnt have exit nodes built into the protocol, so getting to the internet is a bit harder.
So, if I recall correctly, I had to set up a device as an i2p server (seems like they were super light weight and you could configure your phone to do it) and then you could use your browser of choice with the "i2p server" as a proxy.
Its my understanding that each of the "i2p servers" acted as both an entry point and an exit point. That is to say, while my traffic entered the network there, there were other people's traffic that could be routed through and/or exit via my server.
Am I wrong on that assessment?
It say TailOS, not Tails though.
I know, I don't even know why I was on the site lol.
Kinda misphrased, I didn't want to call out you specifically, I don't think you'd be stupid enough to fall for VPN companies, that was more of a general statement to/about all linux users :3
Yeah

I support Arch, but I will refuse the business of anyone who would choose to install Arch on their machine.
Why?
We must hold these sinners to account, this is the percicution that God warned us about! We must defend the Temple at all costs!
