from a security and privacy point

and not surface stuff like “whats my ip” “whats my fingerprint” (someone said the fingerprint checking sites are useless idk) or “is tor connected”

    Define „safety“ before you do anything. Nobody here can tell you how to check how safe you are because there’s no info on you, your situation, environment, threat level, etc Do you live in a place where there are severe repercussions for stating a mere opinion?

    What is your stance toward the place and political system you are situated in and family status?

    These are all things only you can know and shouldn’t leak here obviously.

    Are you paranoid? are you a minority and concerned for yourself and your people in said system?

    Maybe write down what you want to protect and what you feel is at risk, then take according steps.

    There are certainly better ways to learn about this than my comment, just trying to inspire.

    I will get downvoted for leaking a critical stance on this: this is an obscure internetforum - just know that if you are a pedophile and you consume (morally) illegal Video material: there so many of these people on the internet that official organisation can’t fight all of them. You are safer than you might feel.
