A few useful #foss software and services:
@fedora - best #linux distro if you want stability and new software at the same time
@keepassxc - best offline password manager
@librewolf - best browser for #privacy and usability. It is what Firefox should be.
@libreoffice - best FOSS office suite with the most functionality
@protonmail - most trustworthy email service with E2E and Zero-knowledge encryption
@protonvpn - best choice for freemium #vpn service
@fosserytech @fedora @keepassxc @librewolf @libreoffice @protonmail @protonvpn wasnt there a whole thing with proton and the CIA compromising it via the CDN for a while?
@nihilistic_capybara @fedora @keepassxc @librewolf @libreoffice @protonmail @protonvpn I just heard about a case when they handed over a criminal’s data to the Swiss government (but they state that in their privacy policy that they must obey the law)
@fosserytech @fedora @keepassxc @librewolf @libreoffice @protonmail @protonvpn but if it really.is end to end encrypted and zero knowledge them shouldn’t they not be able to even decrypt the data?
@nihilistic_capybara @fedora @keepassxc @librewolf @libreoffice @protonmail @protonvpn I think each email and cloud providers can do that. When you use any of those you have to trust them with your data. If you’re concerned about that, the only solution is self-hosting. Proton Mail is still the best option for those who can’t self-host.
@fosserytech @nihilistic_capybara @fedora @keepassxc @librewolf @libreoffice @protonmail @protonvpn There isn’t rly any good way to self-host email, especially when you also want to send. Receive sure, there are options, but sending emails from self-hosted server is almost undoable without all of your emails ending up in spam.
