Work fine for finding locally if in Bluetooth range. Not good for finding lost things outside of that. I lost some keys in July last year. Still not found since then.

Apples biggest benefit is the sheer number of phones that can help locate lost items. I was hoping Androids Find my Device network to be the same but currently it’s really lacking.

There’s cookie lists in uBlock Origin. Just enable them.

uBlock Origin has two cookie filters that are disabled by default. I enabled that and ditched the consent-o-matic extension

Just checked mine and it’s all disabled

PipePipe works with V3.5.0

What controller is that?

Did you just respond to your own comment?

I ran PiHole for years. It started as a way to block ads but then also a way to block games and YouTube for my kids so they get a break. I had to manually control this though. I switched to NextDNS last year because this can be done on a schedule and they can’t get around it such as swapping to mobile data on their phones.

In the house though I run AdGuard because there’s no way differentiate traffic for each of my kids NextDNS profiles. With AdGuard it can proxy DNS requests to take traffic from the TV in their bedroom and convert it to DNS over TLS so the traffic hits the correct profile. I don’t use AdGuard for anything else. It does not filter anything. It’s purely to make sure traffic hits the correct NextDNS profile.

KeepassXC looks better IMO. Also I like that hardware keys work without plugins. Personally I still use KeePass for one feature that XC doesn’t offer.

Mines ok. But then I use my own domain.

You can work around the need to go around updating all sites with your new email address… at least the next time you need to change your email address.

I use SimpleLogin to create a unique alias (on my own domain) for each website. When I finally migrated to Proton all I had to do was add the proton email address to SimpleLogin and delete my old GMail address to get it to point to Proton (I started migrating to aliases before moving away from GMail). Likewise if I ever move in the future I only need to update SimpleLogin. I was looking to move to Skiff when my Proton renewal was due!

To set this up I had to obviously update every single website which was very time consuming. However I have much better protection now as email addresses are disposable should a site start spamming me. The only site that actually knows my Proton email address is Bitwarden, Proton itself and SimpleLogin.

Looking in my account I have over 300 aliases. Crazy.

Their free tier storage offering was amazing. I honestly couldn’t see how they could offer so much for free. I was very tempted at the time but chose proton. Although I think I may move to Fastmail when my renewal is due.

Regardless of who you choose. Use an aliasing service. It makes moving to a new provider/email address a breeze on the future. It took me days to go around updating all my 200 sites online. If I ever move from proton it will take me 5 minutes to ensure all my sites now go to my new provider.

My only tip would be to create a new domain rather than using a shared one. This will prevent some sites from blocking you from using an alias.

No bloat? Stay away from Samsung then.

The greater good

Previously, I’d be forever using incognito to perform searches. Just to try and avoid seeing constant ads based on my searches. Since switching I no longer have to do this.

I’m far from being privacy conscious as some in this community but just switching to Firefox and Duckduckgo from Chrome and Google has yielded amazing results for me. I no longer feel like everything I do online is being tracked.

They’re all Safari Incognito

A DNS server can use root hints to resolve addresses rather than needing an upstream DNS server.

Just what you need. A popup on your phone reminding you you’re a scruffy git and not shaved in 7 days.

No but you can use API’s from various alias services so that Bitwarden can generate your aliases for you.

The biggest downside is there is a cost associated with doing all this. I’ve gone from free to paying for a domain (optional), SimpleLogin and protonmail.

If you’re going to use SimpleLogin and proton then look at their proton unlimited tier. I had SimpleLogin prior to proton so I only use the Mail Plus tier. SimpleLogin comes included in the unlimited tier.

I do the same. If I want to move mail provider in the future, it’s just a case of updating the aliases to point to that new mailbox.

This is what I’ve done. I’ve literally just moved to Proton from Gmail. I created aliases for all my sites. The only site that knows about my Proton email address is SimpleLogin.

The only emails in Gmail now are from Google services tied to that Gmail account.

I used Bitwarden to help generate the aliases.
