The first thing to consider is what you want to archive. Security and privacy are not the same thing, however go hand in hand. With rooting you can go deeply into your systems setup, however it also opens potential threats against you. Adb is more secure. When it comes to privacy consider also rethinkdns or any other firewall. You can block internet access to specific apps and even system apps.
If you want it the safest use the official Monero wallet. Or what I use and trust cakewallet. It can also do bitcoin in case you use that too…
I have no Facebook or Instagram etc and never had. And I have friends and meet people. I think people who are interested in you have no problem with your stand even changing the username all the time is a bit strange haha
You don’t need shelter. Create a multiple user account one just for that app… on GrapheneOS. It is totally isolated from the rest. You can use a vpn just in that user profile too
Used proton from almost day one, and moved a few months ago to skiff. I like what they offer and how they improve and implement
You can! On android even within the settings.
I am super confused?! You charge 299 usd for something a browser can do for free.
Oh wow and it shows a picture of nordvpn one of the worst…
GrapheneOS is unmatched when it comes to security features including hardening. Don’t get me wrong calyx is great and when you like to use microG then it’s there. With graphene you can also install google play and framework (if you wish so) but in a different approach. It’s like a normal app. So you can do it with network access given or not even etc… it’s worth to test out also the profiles and separate your life into profiles… you can have on one google service on one not etc… and all getting push notifications. Most banking apps work (to be honest very had any issues.)
With calyx like I say it’s a privacy but not security hardened approach. And calyx been back in security updates what been pushed from google sometimes for months. For me it’s a clear choice but it’s your call…
Ente is great! Using it since a month and really loving it
Switched a while back from proton to skiff and loving it. Also the send emails later feature is great.
Do I miss a post to you just said brave browser?
Let me try then
Firefox
Signal is a privacy first app. Do I wish it would not use a telephone number? Absolutely! But they never claim to be anonymous. This said with something like https://juicysms.com you can register signal and many other services with a number in the USA, the Netherlands or the UK (the Netherlands is the best option here)
If you look for an app what don’t need a telephone number check simplex or session. Perhaps something like the matrix protocol and element would be a great option too.
This is actually more than welcome. I never understood why you could have your signal on your phone and ipad, but not on two phones. Applaud molly to do so!
Skiff is pretty good, I switched from proton over as they had a good one year promo and I found it fits better on what I need. The drive and page setup is pretty good too and so is the calendar. Overall I like skiff and they update and add a lot almost weekly. Big fan so far
You could use DNS and stick with Vanadium. AdGuard, nextdns, decloudus, Mullvad… all good for ad blocking and probably more effective as it’s system wide
Metager.org could also be a good daily drive
Check decloudus.com
Yes for the browser i agree, sadly apps have trackers and ads too. A dns can be useful if it’s system wide for all that stuff. Nextdns, adguard, rethinkdns or decloudus comes to mind
You can do this. But you need to use rethinkdns and download the configuration of the proton vpn wireguard server(s) you wanna reach. You can have internet blocked for individual apps, have some tunnel without VPN but DNS and firewall protection and some go through servers of proton (even per app to different servers). It’s a powerful tool. You won’t get the same protection as you would get with let’s say GrapheneOS but you are getting damn close to it if done right
