Use encryption, using vpns for such a trivial task is a “really bad idea”
There are many cases when somebody wants to have their dns public, maybe they want to share with their friends, family, community, audience (not everyone is a solo server user)
Also, it’s good to use your dns even before connecting to the vpn. Just use encryption, it’s safe and nice
Keeping 53 opened is not that bad, the only thing you will notice is an increased load on your server if somebody tried to ddos somebody’s server using your dns
P.S. Or as somebody mentioned below, use rate limiting. It’s described pretty well in some other comments. Not just “spooky internet port”
Facebook has their reasons to keep stuff as closed as possible, and they don’t claim to be opensource
But proton does, and it’s not about privacy or security, but about using banner of foss just for their own benefit, and don’t contribute what they claim to the foss community
I drink a lot of cacao 😅😅😅 i make it almost every day, i like sweet stuff (pretty often i eat 500-1000g of sugar a day, i’m a terrible person. And sometimes it’s like the only thing i eat, in form of condensed milk🫠(i’m skinny as a twig, i move a lot during the day and eat like tons of food every day))
Sometimes i get pretty angry at those invisible entities that eat my food without me seeing it, i just cooked it and just tried to eat, and somebody stole it from me 🤭
I’m mostly melting it right now, pizza, bread, etc
When i will be making some better cheese and more, i will try my best to check how can i share stuff i make with all the people i meet. For now, i’m doing it in Vietnam, so it would be a long trip for a piece of cheese to get to you 🤭
I’ve been aware of pi-hole for a while now, but never bothered with it because I do most web browsing on a laptop where browser extensions like uBlock origin are good enough. However, with multiple streaming services starting to insert adds into my paid subscriptions, I’m looking to upgrade to a network blocker that will...
My last comment wasn’t really addressed personally to you, sorry i sounded like that
Having root is almost never a security benefit, it allows you to close one hole, but opens up 10 new more
It means you have your bootloader unlocked, you have secure boot disabled which allows for persistent malware. Just having root by itself opens up many more remote, zero click, or just very dangerous exploits
F-droid is not secure, some of the issues had been resolved, but it’s still not recommended for best practices
Of course, everything depends on the thread model
I personally really like fdroid and izzy, and other custom repos. And root is a cool thing, although i don’t have it on my daily driver(but have on my test phone)
The bootloader has to be unlocked for most approaches to gaining root;
Did you know you can root grapheneos, and lock the bootloader? 😂 pretty dangerous stuff to do, but possible!
concludes that most users are better off getting apps from Google Play.
In general, screw google play, and screw google, or any big corpo, it’s not even about security, but about them being bad companies and bad services
And the same about windows, joy is the most important thing, if software is full of trackers and just designed poorly, why would anyone want to use it 🫠

Pi-Hole or something else for network ad blocking?
