I trust code more than politics.

  • Looking for a FOSS Android custom control center

  • If you swipe down from the top using two fingers it takes you directly to the settings drawer.

  • Recommendations for a source code hosting service

    Jump

  • I guess it would be more akin to a "source code hosting service," but that would imply that I intend to open it to the internet (which isn't necessarily the case).

  • Samsung → iPhone: Need Your De-Google Tips

    Jump

  • LibreTube uses the Material Design 3 design language, which, in my opinion, looks much nicer, more user friendly, and more responsive. NewPipe (and its forks) don't even use the proper system calls for Picture In Picture.

  • I would consider GrapheneOS instead of iOS. GrapheneOS provides full compatibility with Android without Google, and you can optionally install Google Play Services. Apple is as bad as Google in some aspects.

    As for your main questions, these are my suggestions:

    Most of these are Android-only, because iOS is still privacy invasive by nature. More software can be found on my list of software.

    Cheers!

  • How can I download this audio file?

    Jump

  • For this website, it seems the only way is by fetching the MP3 URL from the network tab (or a random JavaScript file) and passing it into yt-dlp like so:

    yt-dlp "https://audio.usborne.com/audio/Book Readings/Phonics Readers/9781801319591_pho_cockatoos-on-cruise_am-eng_br-pt.mp3"

    This will correctly download it.

  • Open source real time voice changer app for making phone call

    Jump

  • Let's not forget: privacy is not a sign of wrongdoing.

    Some friends wanted to make a podcast, and asked me to join. I agreed under the condition that I could use a real-time voice changer, because I didn't want my real voice publicly on the internet. That's one legitimate use case. Maybe OP is calling a support number, which often monitor and record your calls. OP could also just be calling a friend, you never know who could be listening in.

    In any case, voice changers are just software. It's not creepy unless you know for sure it's being used for something creepy. Anything can be used for good or bad.

  • The Flag of Privacy

    Jump

  • As I mentioned in the post, the icon was created by Gordon Dylan Johnson. The way I interpret it is that the eye represents surveillance, and you are holding up your hand, which is the body language for "stop."

  • That would be great, thank you! I have a hunch I'm not the only one with WebGL disabled.

  • Looks amazing :)

    Thank you!

    Is there a version that doesn't use WebGL?

  • Gift ideas for a privacy enthusiast

    Jump

  • I received a single flash drive for my birthday one year. That flash drive unlocked the world of Linux to me, and kicked my privacy journey in motion. I've come so far in the years since. It truly was the best gift I ever received.

  • ClamAV is an open source antivirus, but I would recommend against using an antivirus altogether due to their invasive nature. You shouldn't need one with proper sandboxing and isolation.

  • [OC] What People Think Privacy/Security Is

    Jump

  • Mainly because it's proprietary, privacy invasive by nature, and invasive on computers.

  • The intention was more "Banks keep my data safe," but I wanted to provide a clearer explanation that if your data isn't safe, neither is your money. I didn't have enough room to put my full thoughts.

  • Encryption is a type of security, and Tor/VPNs encrypt your traffic. Accessing .onion sites over Tor is (at least in theory) more secure than accessing clearnet sites.
