Right, but still quite affordable compared to similar solution with Proton IMHO



Works OK but makes your connection slow as hell… Not really useful for daily usage.



OpenBoard with gestures? Where? Version 1.4.5 has no gestures, and it’s the last one… And three is no search feature for emoji, it’s in the ToDo list


Windows… With this only word you already have all the abswers



You’re right for Pinta. Can’t be 100% sure about Paint.NET to be fully open source but as it based on .NET it might be…


Well, GIMP is great but uneasy, not sure but Paint.NET on Windows is simpler but very user friendly and may be sufficient for your needs





Same, Session is great because it focus on privacy. You can contact people only by knowing their public ID but you don’t know their private ID which is used by the user to decrypt the messages. As there is no central server, nothing is kept outside of your local Session instance. Pretty decent to me.


Of course… I can’t even picture myself not using a VPN, I prefer to ditch anything that prevent me to protect my privacy


Absolutely every website you visit or app you use, if they track such info of course.


Oh, very good points you mention here, definitively few red flags. As for the unusual traffic for your IP I experienced it because I’m using a VPN


Can you tell us why Qwant wasn’t a good choice for you? I heard they work hard on respecting privacy while providing good results… So I am curious about your experience


Not worse, but less repeatable. You don’t see any difference in typing, it just help reduce fingerprinting


Keyboard is absolutely a thing to be careful with. On Android mobile, use OpenBoard for example. On computer, if you use Linux, also install kloak [https://github.com/Whonix/kloak], a tool that slightly delays randomly your keystrokes to help you hide your typing pattern that can definitively identify you


It’s important to distinguish privacy, anonimity and security.


Mulch, focus on security (same as Bromite), OE Mull, focus on privacy, both can be installed from F-Droid
