Thanks. I currently use hardened Firefox (Arkenfox) and yes I do use unlock.
If you don't think Mozilla cares about your privacy anymore, yet you use Qwant, you're probably not going to want to hear that the two partnered up last month.
I've been using Startpage with positive results.
There's also hardened Firefox solutions.
I second Proton... I love 'em. I use them for email and VPN. I always have a hard time putting all my eggs in one basket though, and try to avoid using any one ecosystem for all my organization. For example, I use an offline app for my calendar, and a self-hosted home solution for file management.
Great to see another person giving the one finger salute to big tech. Not sure about your ideas on Apple respecting your privacy though - they haven't given me that impression but maybe I'm misinformed.
After your post I did some digging and indeed it does appear as though Parrot OS can be installed through UTM. Thanks for the heads up!
Is SELinux enabled by default in Fedora? I've tried researching it but everyone seems to be wanting to do the opposite and disable SELinux (presumably because it restricts ease-of-use)?
I've looked at this and would love to but as is my (limited) understanding, Qubes is next to (if not entirely) impossible to implement on Mac M1
Thank you. Again, excuse my ignorance but, I don't see Parrot on the UTM list... Can Parrot be loaded on top of one of those OS's? Or are you suggesting Parrot in general, regardless of UTM's capabilities?
Valid point. I do prefer the UI with Proton, I find it nicer to click through. Also, Tuta usually makes you wait 2-3 days before you can use it - not a big deal really, unless you're trying to sign up for something new.
I don't know if what I do is the right way around this but, as stated Proton will reject disposable verification emails and you cannot use another proton account to verify a new one.
My workaround for this is to verify proton with a Tutanota account which is also created with as little to no identifiable information as possible.
TLDR: Proton accepts Tuta emails for verification and Tuta emails can be created anonymously.
You say you use ProtonPass with a free Proton account? Do you know if they have a limit for creating these new emails? I've seen ProtonPass advertised but I just assumed it was a premium feature. When I say its tedious, its because when I create new ProtonMail accounts you first have to verify it with another non-Proton account which I find a bit annoying as I dont use services like Gmail etc , but more importantly, Proton has been blocking signups on newly created emails (if you just created the email and then use it to verify a service sign up it gets blocked).
Perhaps I haven't used it to its full capacity but, I have a free proton account and I still have access to simple login
Thanks for the info. You'll have to forgive my ignorance as I'm not super well-versed but, I was of the impression that alias software like anon and simple login were more for avoiding spam and unwanted emails from sign ups. Is it also effective as a security tool?
I've heard of these but haven't given them a long look. What is it about mullvad or librewolf that people prefer over Firefox?
