Rethink DNS

@Apeeksiht@lemdro.id

How different is it from quad9 dns?

@VerPoilu@sopuli.xyz

You can configure it per app. And choose your own block lists.

@Asudox@lemmy.world

In the app, it’s actually a firewall and DNS app. It’s configurable like NextDNS unlike quad9.

@Apeeksiht@lemdro.id

Interesting I’ll check it out

@demystify@lemmy.ml

Imma add TrackerControl to those already mentioned in other comments.

Edit: cosmetic change

Lemongrab

Since it is a local VPN you can use android killswitch as well. Good for a shelter work profile for apps that may not work with vpns

Android:

Nexdns.io^[1] - Open source DNS provider with DNSSEC and over TLS. Then can also block ads at the DNS level. I don’t actually use the app, I apply it at the system level with the “private DNS” settings.
Bitwarden^[2] - Open Source password manager with Yubikey auth and stores TOTP.
Imagepipe^[3] - Quickly and easily strip exif data from image (open source too).
Markor^[4] - Used to make local notes of things I don’t want shared over a cloud or google connection. Just a .md note.
Wireguard^[5] - Have my own VPN setup for when i’m on public wifi, also allows me to access my server/applications remotely.
URLCheck^[6] - This app is fantastic, intercepts links to remove tracking parameters, unshorten them or even scan them with a virustotal API. I also use it to redirect twitter to nitter or apply a paywall remover.

What do you use for paywall remover?

@lustrum@sh.itjust.works

I have 2 options that work most of the time: 12ft.io and archive.ph. The URLCheck rules are:

"proxy it with archive.is": {
    "regex1": "^(https?):\\\/\\\/([\\s\\S]*)$",
    "regex": "^(?!.*(archive\\.))(.*)",
    "replacement": "https:\/\/archive.is\/newest\/$2",
    "enabled": "true"
  },
  "12ft.io.": {
    "regex": "^.*$",
    "replacement": "https:\/\/12ft.io\/$0"
  },

This basically brings up 2 buttons on the urlcheck sheet an I can pick either to proxy it.

Extras
