Mullvad is such a dope VPN. They go above and beyond by using tmpfs for the filesystem on their servers so that the absolute bare minimum can be retained for law enforcement when compelled through subpoenas.

@alex @superboom12s @xaetacore @musha@Saorsa @superboom12s @xaetacore @musha I use their browser extension sometimes, easier than an app at times. For websites only though, and I have an ultimate VPN setup that uses it to proxy different websites to different countries. It uses like 5 VPNs

I usually just end up using Brave's tor window for whenever I need to cheekily access something from another IP address.

@alex @superboom12s @xaetacore @musha@Saorsa @alex @xaetacore @musha I don't know much about public proxies or VPNs, but please, don't use the Brave Tor client, it had it's HUGE security flaws in the past and it is not kept as updated as the original Tor one.
(Plus Brave is a hateful browser, I wouldn't use it personally, but I think it's better than most commercial browsers out there.) -

@alex @superboom12s @xaetacore @musha@Saorsa @superboom12s @xaetacore @musha It is more to unlock features. Netflix streaming, twitter 18+ outside of EU, Russian websites that can be only accessed in Russia, all behind one VPN connection and the server decides where to route it. -

(Plus Brave is a hateful browser, I wouldn't use it personally, but I think it's better than most commercial browsers out there.)I usually try to keep at least one Chromium and Firefox-based browser on my system at any given time. There really aren't any better alternatives at the moment. With Ublock Origin on the way out, it is the only browser with that kind of functionality built in due to it being a fork of it. I only ever use it for stuff that doesn't usually require careful opsec. For anything like that, I would use the Tor browser as you've rightly pointed out.

@superboom12s @alex @xaetacore @musha@Saorsa @superboom12s @xaetacore @musha Yea all the browsers kinda suck, I use brave cause everything else is just worse somehow. If chromium didn't get rid of manifest v2, I'd keep using it indefinitely. -

No limits and regional bs.
Software I use btw, https://github.com/MHSanaei/3x-ui, really easy

@superboom12s @alex @xaetacore @musha@Saorsa @alex @xaetacore @musha If you want an alternative to Brave that has also that kind of functionality, I recommend Helium, its based on ungoogled chromium (a pretty good alternative too) and has some privacy-focused changes, one of them is the native ublock Origin. For the Firefox, I have Tor browser as it also serve as the Tor client, but I rarely use it.
I would give it a try if its the first time you hear about it! Brave is not a bad option either if you care to configure it, but I don't like it's ideas and his extremely homophobic creator.
I would also take some advice, specially with Android browsers, I don't use it much, so I do use Brave there, but Helium isn't avaliable for Android, so if you have better chromium alternatives, let me know. -

@superboom12s @Saorsa @xaetacore @musha I looked into it, and it can only be deleted if you build it from source and change the code

Bit extreme for something so minor. Though, stupid shit like that really should be exposed through a configuration file instead of requiring recompilation.
Mad that Sharkey is the same for one of the settings on that as well.
