For some reason vpns slow it down a lot more than mobile, any privacy focused DNS I can use?
selfhost your own dns server with something like pihole and unbound
Apart of VPN and ad/trackerblockers, maybe DNScrypt, common sense, this is the best privacy tool. Linux by default is a good privacy protecting OS (at least most Distros). Privacyproblems are online, if you use Chrome and search with Google, posting in these Zuckerbot or Mustythingies, all security measures and OS cannot protect you. Use Firefox(!) or Vivaldi, search with Whoogle, Andisearch, SearX, Qwant, Mojeek, DDG or MetaGer, be discreet with your private data, use a secure email (e.g. Proton, Tutanota, Murena), do not upload private photos to Imgur (or better yet, upload nothing to Imgur)
Yeah, I use near full Foss on my linux setup. Just 1 proprietary driver
What’s dnscrypt? Is it better than VPN?

Used to use riseup, not anymore. Proton on all devices, have to use 1 at time coz free mode is 1 devicw

Using a free VPN and saying it’s slow, is probably the issue
I wish, free Proton is more than fast enough to saturate my bandwidth
I was considering paying for the cheapest possible windscribe plan. 3 euro for 2 countries and unlimited data, is tagt Good? Can’t really pay much because I’m a teen and parents are very anti vpns. They monitor my revolut card and I don’t have and source of income yet

How would mail work? Mail here is really slow. Wouldn’t there be a risk of the money being taken on the way?
Wait, I could mine on my laptop, is there any age requirement for crypto?

My best bet is likely mail, I’ll buy some stamps on Monday. I don’t pay for electricity ATM so j could get something from mining. I’ll check the website
Someone I know is curious about the SPN, which says, “It’s Time to Ditch VPNs - Stop paying for out-dated technology that was never intended to protect your privacy.”
I’m not too sure, but interested in it. Opinions?
You dont need any commercial VPN provider unless you’re a persecuted minority or under a strict government regime, get off them.
You can’t verify that any of them actually comply with their no log policies and all they’re doing is aggregating people who have stuff to hide onto it.
And especially not fucking Windscribe.
And VPNs are always slow, hence not using them unless they’re required.

I have it, just not in my use case for daily use I don’t do sensitive tasks. Just gaming
