  • I don’t like the idea of paying too much for privacy, I fear this might be one more of capitalism ideas, creating the problem and offering you the solution.

    So my privacy journey is limited:

    • Listen to all songs downloaded offline
    • Use VSCodium for coding (VSCode without telemetry)
    • Lineage on Android
    • Arch on PC, Windows 10 IoT LTSC (with debloat scripts, no linked account) for games
    • LibreWolf on PC and IronFox on Android, both with LibRedirect enabled for all sites and uBO
    • DNSNet on Android to block trackers system-wide, I also like to see which url is trying to track me
    • All apps are mostly Lineage or AOSP native, Files, Calculator, Messages, Contacts etc…
    • Use pCloud for backup with encrypted files (using GPG, not pCloud encryption, I send them encrypted)
    • I use Lemmy and Invidious for entertainment
    • Tuta as primary email and Proton as secondary

    I think this is the main stuff, as I said, I try to avoid making new accounts, accessing new websites frequently, I’m going the opposite way and trying to de-tech as much as possible. Less digital accounts, less things to worry about.

    I became less dependent of fancy things, a few time ago I couldn’t use YouTube without the app installed, which is very convenient, now I just use Invidious in browser.
