and change the password to something from correcthorsebatterystaple.net.

i wonder how secure or private it is to use a password generated online. You should use a password manger instead. They have built-in password generators

thanks for this, I was also in this situation, I got a xiaomi router and flashed OpenWRT on it, I then turned off the Wifi switch on the ISP router making it a modem only but I was still concerned about my internet data as it moves between my modem and their servers. your comment made it clearer

i should probably invest in that mullvad vpn now

everyone keeps mentioning Pixel Devices, but I’d personally never use one for the same reason I won’t wear branded clothes

you should check out OnePlus devices, the bootloaders are easily unlocked and they’ve major LineageOS support, the phones also have a high quality build, if you like the form of your XR, definitely check out the OnePlus 8/8 pro or 9/9 pro

another option is if you can get any of the Samsung S10 models with an exynos chip, they also have strong build and are supported by lineageOS as well

If you’re on Linux and you don’t want to use KeepassXC, you can check out Secrets on Flathub, it has imo a better UI/UX

i used to do this, until I started using syncthing

i only add password entries on my laptop then sync the file directly to my phone using syncthing to avoid conflict

Same here, I support both of you, I’ve never voted and will never vote for a lesser evil kind of candidate. I imagine those who do so are fancy folks who live in first world nations and preach a biased take on democracy. They’ve never known an oppressive government masquerading as a democracy, people in my country literally canvass and vote for the same ppl who strip them of their rights. That’s on them, can never be me.

Is it any different from the others i.e Namecheap or Porkbun?

getting a domain means renting it, you have to constantly renew it, you can’t outright buy a domain. although njalla takes it a step further and rent it on your behalf, you’re still the custodian of said domain but they can take actions on your domain without your input.

Please don’t use Signal, the US government has all the keys. Self host XMPP, Matrix and SimpleX servers and make sure encryption is properly configured. If you’re not generating your encryption keys, why should you use them?

Nostr isn’t a Lemmy alternative, it’s a Mastodon/Twitter/BlueSky substitute with more decentralized, secure and private features and i think OP should have pointed that out.

And since Op was comparing the secure and private features of both protocols, ActivityPub surely has improvements to implement for greater privacy and security.

how did you get a riseup vpn account?

this is the life i deserve, not the one i have

why are ppl scared of downvotes or being downvoted?

KeepassXC if you’re on Linux and KeepassDX on android, preferably on Fdroid.

I don’t think the source of their wealth even though they are a failed nation or that they perpetuate neo-imperialism and instability around the world to maintain the global north superiority is reported enough, or are those not negative enough?

Rethink Dns is so sweet

When did brave become FOSS?
