That's another bug on my part. I'll fix this in version 2.0 :)

I do not agree with placing switzerland over sweden in that location category

I'd be happy to hear your elaboration on this. From what I know, Switzerland is seen as the gold standard in terms of privacy.

and i think a category should included, that tracks age of vpn or something like that

The issue is that age doesn't correlate with security. There could be an outdated, insecure VPN that's been around for 10 years, or a modern, secure VPN that's been around for 10 days. If I included it, there would be no "good" or "bad" values. Nevertheless, I will include this in version 2.0.

(and just for someone curiouse, it should be mentioned that nymvpn does use mullvad servers/ has a deal with mullvad)

I knew NymVPN used a small bit of Mullvad VPN's code, but I didn't know they used their servers. Could you link to this?

It isn't open source.

As I mentioned, the availability section is security focused. F-Droid has potential security issues compared to Accrescent or the Google Play Store.

(if they exist) on Linux

secureblue is Linux.

Soon :)

I plan to make a version 2.0 with some requested changes.

That seems to be a bug. That's my bad. Thanks for catching that! I'll fix it soon and edit the post.

Edit: Fixed! Sorry about that.

Proton VPN supports port forwarding. IVPN and Mullvad VPN do not. Mozilla VPN and NymVPN don't explicitly state whether or not they do from what I found, so I'm not sure.

I've included it both as a post image and as an embedded image for maximum compatibility (e.g. for RSS readers), so there shouldn't be any problems. I've tested it on multiple browsers on multiple devices just fine.

Edit: It seems lemmy.world is breaking all lemmy.ml images

Can Nym be used on an OpenWrt router?

A guide is in the works.

Does it require a special app or can it be used with a standard wireguard config?

It supports WireGuard.

Password managers can be accessed across devices

Unfortunately then the domain becomes a unique identifier. It still doesn't fix the security issues with email itself.

You also end up giving away a lot of personal information to the domain registrar, which is less anonymous than third party email providers.

Did simplex fix their desktop app?

I wasn't aware there was anything wrong with it.

is it even possible to get non kyc’d number to make a signal account

You can buy a phone number anonymously with the ways I described, or pay for verification. Either way, you only need to verify the phone number once and never again (unless you want to change it).

You may want to cross-post this to !privacy@lemmy.ml as well ;)

Here are some good resources to compare different messaging apps:

In general, my pick would be SimpleX Chat, since it too is decentralized, but also provides things that Delta Chat does not, such as post-quantum encryption.

What you're describing is somewhat the basis behind passkey authentication and how services like SimpleX Chat or Session operate. One day (I hope) this will become the standard.

I wonder why they chose lemmynsfw to train their AI on.

I already made a list

closed source

Bluesky is open source.

I don’t know why it’s being discussed here

It is being discussed to see if things have changed.
