stifle867, in Privacy friendly authenticator ?

As long as you aren’t backing up your tokens to the cloud they’re all going to be functionally equivalent in terms of your data privacy outside of intentionally malicious apps. I mean that in the sense that no authenticator app should be sending your tokens anywhere on the internet. Use common sense when it comes to installing Google or Microsoft’s authenticator apps.

stifle867, in Privacy friendly antivirus app?

You should really question why you need this to begin with…but you can look at f-droid.org/packages/us.spotco.malwarescanner/

luthis, in Practical file manager on Linux Ubuntu

I use nemo, its the only one with all the functions I need

AI_toothbrush, in It seems Gen Z is just fine with parents knowing where they are all the time

Im fine with my parents knowing where i am the only problem is that i would also share my location with big daddy google and im not fine with that. And my parents are divorced so i wouldnt share it with my dad… Also it would drain my battery

stifle867, in Privacy friendly clock app ?
I_Am_Jacks_____, in Practical file manager on Linux Ubuntu

pcmanfm is a good one

dustywinter, in Privacy friendly authenticator ?

Proton Pass has a 2fa option built in

None, you don’t need anti-virus, you need common sense to avoid getting them.

If you’re coming from windows, I think kde may be easier to transition to than gnome.

giacomo, in Privacy friendly Ubuntu antivirus ?

Clam

smeg, in Privacy friendly clock app ?

App for what? What are you using that doesn’t already have a clock?

I_Am_Jacks_____, in Privacy friendly authenticator ?

Assuming Android: Aegis

LMP,

More privacy friendly than 2FAS ?

I_Am_Jacks_____,

I don’t know what that is.

I’m not sure what you mean by that. 2FA can’t be linked back to your phone or anything if that is your concern. If you use it to login to your account often, then maybe the platform can. If you want an alrernative, check platforms that support passkeys as a 2FA, it has the same privacy though.

@stifle867 @iamtuna

Damn!.... looks like mine failed to block partner.ads.js ... how do I block that?

stifle867,

I’m not 100% sure but that probably means your ad blocker doesn’t block “acceptable ads”. It can be a setting buried somewhere, if at all. Again, I’m not familiar with exactly your adblocker and the partner.ads.js but that’s just what I would guess.

If you’re on iPhone I’ve previously had success with AdGuard and they also have a good reputation around here.

EDIT: I was completely wrong. It looks to be a YouTube thing for loading ads. If it’s blocked it could potentially break YouTube. It could only be possible to block it using something like uBlock which I assume you cannot run. You may be able to block it if you can add rules in 1Block specifically for it.

@stifle867 👍

stifle867,

Good luck!

Imprint9816,

Cool site. Scored 92% using Vanadium browser on GrapheneOS

stifle867,

With uBlock Origin you can achieve 99%+ pretty easily. https://programming.dev/pictrs/image/1ca9a8f8-e03f-4c4d-809a-4609e349b6ff.png

Imprint9816,

Oh for sure but I don’t think the ublock extension works for vanadium

Vexz, in Looking for a website like tracker control app

RethinkDNS maybe? Or maybe NextDNS?

iamtuna,

It’s neither of those. You could go there, click start and it would ping a list of trackers. When finished running it would give a percentage of trackers being blocked and show the entire list of which ones were/were not being blocked.

I thought I had bookmarked the page but apparently I didn’t 🤦🏻‍♂️

Vexz,

Ooh, gotcha! Maybe this one then? I think they recently changed their design.

iamtuna,

YES! That’s the one! I’d buy you a coffee if I could, you just saved my sanity lol Thank you!

Vexz,

Haha, you're welcome. :D

leaky_shower_thought, in Garbage aka providing relevant Ads 🤣

incognito mode not convincing enough. needs that fedora hat and circle glasses.
