You can go back to image or audio captcha via the buttons below, still sucks too.

Yes, it got rebranded to Stoat due legal issues

While it all sounds very promising, but it is a huge project. You can do it once, but are you willing to maintain itforthe next 10 years? Keep up with updates, patch vulnerabilities, find vulnerabilities and all of that? Of not, it is likely not worth it.

Are you somehow related to this community?

You may better ask in a Monero community, I think they’re more have knowledge on this manner.

I 100% agree with this proposal. I think it’s a good approach.

Off-topic: May I ask why the “promotion” (quite vague) of closed-source software is forbidden?

LibreWolf won’t be impacted, they’re already considering to move to Phoenix instead.

Phoenix: https://codeberg.org/celenity/Phoenix

LibreWolf issue: https://codeberg.org/librewolf/issues/issues/2823

Phoenix is also used by IronFox.

Phoenix is also an alternative which can be used with Vanilla Firefox.

Not everyone installs browser extensions themselves; many have them installed by relatives or friends.

Some people can’t tell the difference between a search engine and a browser. Some people don’t know how to install software, and use whatever they got. Some people don’t know better.

Them losing access to a tool like uBlock Origin, with the only alternatives being weaker options, is harmful.

I know of people experiencing blockage because they use uBOL, uBO was more effective at bypassing those blocks I assume.

This is rather a niche case, but I regulary file complaints to data protection authorities in Germany, and many of them do actually offer the option to encrypt the emails they send to you using PGP, same for a police report I once made.

The accurate term is “installing”, not sideloading. Sideloading is a term used to make people think installing the software of your choice is something “shady” and not normal.

Their marketing shoots down PGP on their website with false claims why their encryption is so much better. They for example claim that PGP does not encrypt the subject line, which is false as that is already supported, just not adopted everywhere yet.

I personally suggest against Tuta as they refuse to implement support for open-standard E-Mail encryption like PGP. But they’re definitely better than Gmail, Outlook, Yahoo, GMX, etc.

Posteo is a very legitimate email provider based in Germany. Your bank is really stupid for flagging and rejecting it, their is absolutely nothing about them that should trigger their systems.

An alternative would be Mailbox, it’s very similar to Posteo and I have made good experiences with it.

Why did you switch away from Proton? Most drama surrounding it is very overblown and the consequences of being a large company, not everyone always does everything right who works for them.

I’m tired of having to correct people, but I will do it anyway.

Disagree, it serves to illustrate the same kind of monopoly google has one push notifications.

This is wrong. If you look up the definition for monopoly, you will realize it is false. At worst, it’s a duopoly. If we exclude Huaweii Push, etc.

UnifiedPush is not a push service, it is a distributor. It is a proxy for push services, it does not send out its own notifications.

That is also wrong. Idk how you got the idea of it being a “proxy”.

“UnifiedPush is a decentralized push notification system that lets you choose the service you want to use. It’s designed to be privacy-friendly, flexible, and open — making it perfect if you want control over your push notifications.”

I think this can be overkill depending on your threat model, I personally went with Android profiles to seperate things.

Please avoid using the term “custom ROM”, use preferably “Android Distribution” (is also the term used by LineageOS themselve) as ROM is inaccurate technically speaking.
