Doesn't matter, my happiness is solely based on fulfilling my needs. This ends up requiring a mix of private and public trackers.

In this day and age its easy to automate fulfilling whatever obligations a private tracker requires once invited, so they are a relatively small hassle most of the time.

I think between daiqo and the users at privacyguides the concerns you mention are well accounted for. To me, this from daiqo stood out as why AirVPN ends up being an easy choice for a lot of users.

"Additionally, there are not that many alternatives left. Mullvad is obviously the gold standard and IVPN follows, but both don't have port-forwarding anymore. OVPN got acquired by Pango. Proton is a good alternative but not so viable for macOS users. There are a bunch of others but you'll always need to compromise much more than with AirVPN."

I know OP has stopped updating it but, to me, r/vpntorrents still has the best guide on recommending a vpn provider - https://www.reddit.com/r/VPNTorrents/comments/rikthc/list_of_recommended_vpns_2022/

Privacyguides.org is another good resource.

A little bummed as I enjoyed the podcast, oh well.

Unsubscribed from the podcast and added the blog to my rss reader.

Is it just one guy constantly creating new accounts to make these low effort troll posts? Feels like there have been 3 or 4 this week

This, social networks are not private and users should account for that and act accordingly.

I committed to lemmy during the reddit protests and am trying to stick to my word, the lack of quality niche communities is still the hardest adjustment.

If you wrote that post and came to the conclusion being privacy oriented was your big issue you got a long road ahead.

Your young and dumb and pretty much all of what you did was weird af and creepy. You will learn. Take the L.

Same config although I also use nextdns on my phone as I don't want an outside connection to pihole.

At least have the balls to troll on your main account.

Wild that your own text messages could be stored locally on your car but you have no access to the information

I don't subscribe to the idea that national security and privacy are mutually exclusive. I think its a load of horseshit used to get people to give up their privacy willingly.

Law enforcement and governments have more then enough weapons and tech to do their job without trampling on privacy.

I have deleted my reddit a few times. Its not for privacy reasons.

If i feel myself getting to involved I delete my account and take a break.
