This doesn’t make sense. Some apps require google services, so you can’t get around that, assuming the app is very important to you (best you can do is use it only in a separate profile or just give in and do it on your main, its sandboxed after all).

I agree with the play store part though, Aurora Store is much better (I wouldn’t use aptoide or apkmirror personally, especially when Aurora exists).

Good recommendation. Good to remember that each app has its own sandbox so for most scenarios you are all set anyways (except running google play in general you may be against).

An excellent middle ground, if preferred, would be your main profile with everything that works anonymously and without google, etc, then a second profile that is not so anonymous (ie banking, google maps, etc).

You also likely need your password manager app in both profiles.

p.s. if you also use fingerprint (or any biometric) unlock, remember you can hold the power button to go into lockdown if you ever have a security threat (ie think you might be arrested or robbed or whatever like that). This disables biometrics and requires your pin. (i believe you should do this even if you use only a pin since it takes your phone into a BFU state, which you can google more about if interested).

Then there’s no placebo :(

Postgres or sqlite are the only ones I ever consider nowadays.

I’m too ready to ladybird browser to be ready in a few years.

Even easier, for a markdown (text) file, you could just tell someone the line to go to.

If people used markdown instead, then everyone would have nice text editors installed which would make this easy.

Not to mention how much faster searching through a text file is compared to a word doc (eg, you could ctrl+f the headings name and have a result instantly).

If stuff like this was adopted, integrations could be very nice (with easier solutions than saying “go to x page and look for x header”, I could even imagine links being a thing assuming this feature is developed).

Sadly, using small niche VPNs that might be more trusted makes you stand out more.

This probably doesn’t matter does it? Because being spotted as a mulvad, airvpn, etc user doesn’t make you more of a target for anything.

It just means that if they try to trace your connection back to you, they won’t find anything out, because you have a trusted zero-logging vpn.

Only think I could see is it could potentially be easier to track usage through the ip and assume it’s one person, but idk you could do that with anything if you look at the request timings, etc. It’s still just guesses.

Am i missing something?

It’s pretty unusual to have a Mullvad user on your server

Probably not on the usual sites people visit (youtube, etc, the big sites 99% of ppl go to exclusively), but I can see your point for any smaller site.

Because 5€ for their current service is overpriced

Airvpn provide a discount for each extra month you sign up for in bulk which is nice. It’s a great service in my opinion.
