I checked OpenWRT table of hardware and there were some Asus and Mikrotik models that are available where I live but I don't know which one to buy that sufficient hardware for running ovpn clients
I think you're right. I guess I need a wired router that can run OpenVPN on stock firmware or supported by and OpenWRT can be installed on it and has the hardware needed to run OpenVPN clients. The problem is I don't know what to buy now and honestly where I live there are not many options
I think you're right maybe debian is suited to some applications which really prioritizes stability over everything. which distro do you suggest dual boot on a three year old Windows laptop (I have two separate ssd drives on it so it's safe for dual booting). I did a little research on it and seems like everyone suggests fedora or mint but you use secure blue. Which one should I go with?
Honestly I'm just not sure about Debian being insecure take that being said I run Windows on my devices and never used Linux before (I need coporate CAM/CAD software I should try dual booting but I'm too lazy😅) so maybe you're right I just don't know
There are 4 privacy respecting VPNs out there: Mullvad, Proton VPN, IVPN, Windscribe. As for my opinion I have been using Windscribe for years now and it's been great but I have a specific use case for a VPN so I need one regardless of the privacy aspect. My point is if you want a VPN just for the hypothetical privacy gains in my opinion you're wasting time and money.
What are these and how does it change anything?
