I trust code more than politics.

  • I didn’t suggest F-Droid for inclusion though. I merely used its applicable terminology.

    My bad, I understand now.

    Because it's security focused, it includes app stores that are good for their security (regardless of privacy). Other app stores, such as F-Droid, have security issues that Accrescent and the Google Play Store don't share. This topic has been argued to death countless times before, and I don't want to start a flame war, but do try researching it and see what comes up.

  • That's another bug on my part. I'll fix this in version 2.0 :)

  • I do not agree with placing switzerland over sweden in that location category

    I'd be happy to hear your elaboration on this. From what I know, Switzerland is seen as the gold standard in terms of privacy.

    and i think a category should included, that tracks age of vpn or something like that

    The issue is that age doesn't correlate with security. There could be an outdated, insecure VPN that's been around for 10 years, or a modern, secure VPN that's been around for 10 days. If I included it, there would be no "good" or "bad" values. Nevertheless, I will include this in version 2.0.

    (and just for someone curiouse, it should be mentioned that nymvpn does use mullvad servers/ has a deal with mullvad)

    I knew NymVPN used a small bit of Mullvad VPN's code, but I didn't know they used their servers. Could you link to this?

  • It isn't open source.

  • As I mentioned, the availability section is security focused. F-Droid has potential security issues compared to Accrescent or the Google Play Store.

  • (if they exist) on Linux

    secureblue is Linux.

  • Soon :)

    I plan to make a version 2.0 with some requested changes.

  • That seems to be a bug. That's my bad. Thanks for catching that! I'll fix it soon and edit the post.

    Edit: Fixed! Sorry about that.

  • Proton VPN supports port forwarding. IVPN and Mullvad VPN do not. Mozilla VPN and NymVPN don't explicitly state whether or not they do from what I found, so I'm not sure.

  • I've included it both as a post image and as an embedded image for maximum compatibility (e.g. for RSS readers), so there shouldn't be any problems. I've tested it on multiple browsers on multiple devices just fine.

    Edit: It seems lemmy.world is breaking all lemmy.ml images

  • Password managers can be accessed across devices

  • Unfortunately then the domain becomes a unique identifier. It still doesn't fix the security issues with email itself.

    You also end up giving away a lot of personal information to the domain registrar, which is less anonymous than third party email providers.

  • Did simplex fix their desktop app?

    I wasn't aware there was anything wrong with it.

    is it even possible to get non kyc’d number to make a signal account

    You can buy a phone number anonymously with the ways I described, or pay for verification. Either way, you only need to verify the phone number once and never again (unless you want to change it).

  • I wonder why they chose lemmynsfw to train their AI on.
