Yes it works nicely and I disagree with the above, think it looks fantastic



Semi related but there has been so much anti VPN stuff of late on the web. I blame the big vpn providers for their miss marketing and poor ads from sponsoring deals. The repercussions are making it out like vpns are not useful. Noone thought they were silver bullet before. now they are made out to be a waste of money? All the “you don’t need a VPN” stuff needs to stop. Im concerned people are gonna stop caring about anonymity and enhancing privacy with VPN.


If you want a VPN I would recommended Mullvad and pay with with Crypto


Some more info and helpful blogs from mullvad https://mullvad.net/en/help/all-about-dns-servers-and-privacy/

You can use quad9 or mullvad DNS resolvers for free to prevent DNS leaks


It’s okay, Rishi will make sure they’re alright 😃





This is probably what happened. If you use Google, YouTube and Chrome and esp if you are logged into ur Google account those don’t matter too much…

The discord vc isn’t private but listening to a conversation in real time and picking out key points, who said what and then translating that to recommendations seems a challenge but not impossible. A speech model could do this but that would be quite insane. It seems more likely that the recommendation was based of off previous searches and predicted correctly.

If Dc was listening like that I would expect to see some weird shit cos I talk random stuff in dc voice


None atm. DNS over HTTPS cos im poor using mullvad’s DNS server instead of VPN . Makes it bit more difficult for my ISP


I would add that privacy and security are related. If there is less data on you, it is harder to commit fraud against you.


My advice would be to sign up with email alias and use VPN for Lemmy.
