If all you need is a simple note taking app, I recommend Notesnook. It is free and open source and offers E2EE cloud syncing. That is what I used as a Google keep alternative. Silverbullet is good, but may be too feature-full for something as simple as a Keep replacement.
10·22 days agoI use Varia as my graphical download manager. It has download acceleration built in thanks to aria2. I get often double or triple the download speed (depending on the website). For example, when I downloaded the Fedora Workstation ISO from fedoraproject I got download speeds from 18mbs normal to 60mbs with Varia. Free and open source of course, available on Windows and Linux.
Include mode, selecting your Torrent app.

Yes, that is how fingerprint test sites end up working because so many privacy users will test out the most secure options. Not indicative of real worlds values for commonness of browser fingerprint.
e/OS/ is often behind on Android monthly security patches by a month or more. Insecure and not very deblobbed of proprietary blobs, especially when compared to GrapheneOS.

Ironfox or Cromite
DuckDuckGo Browser is a webview browser which has weaker tab isolation and uses the system’s default webview implementation, most often chrome webview.
But stale bread for French toast??
Do you use libsodium for encryption? They is the gold standard.
Instead of canvas blocker, check out JShelter.
Canvas blocker is redundant with Librewolf’s protections (privacy.resistFingerprinting), same with JS blocker redundant with uBlock Origin. You make yourself more fingerprintable. It is better that you first understand what protections you have and why before adding new addons that increase attack surface. The features you are looking for are included already.
I honestly dont know, I never use twitch. I use the add-on Libredirect to auto use alternative frontends.
That is not what I was referring to. DoH is easy to access in the settings, but with a SOCKS5 proxy you want DNS from the provider to avoid fingerprinting of your location by using a network or DoH provider, which may be a geographically closer server because of your host IP.
Under about:config, change “network.proxy.socks5_remote_dns” to true.
I don’t know definitively why they were fingerprinted to there local city, this is just a theoretical reason.
Hell yeah!
