I’ve heard of these but haven’t given them a long look. What is it about mullvad or librewolf that people prefer over Firefox?


Thanks. I currently use hardened Firefox (Arkenfox) and yes I do use unlock.


Cookies
Newb question: what does it really mean when I click "Reject Nonessential Cookies"? Am I really being any more private by rejecting these? Just feels greasy like it's a workaround for websites to get my information anyway? Should I navigate away from any sites that suggest this cookie configuration?

Valid point. I do prefer the UI with Proton, I find it nicer to click through. Also, Tuta usually makes you wait 2-3 days before you can use it - not a big deal really, unless you’re trying to sign up for something new.


I don’t know if what I do is the right way around this but, as stated Proton will reject disposable verification emails and you cannot use another proton account to verify a new one.

My workaround for this is to verify proton with a Tutanota account which is also created with as little to no identifiable information as possible.

TLDR: Proton accepts Tuta emails for verification and Tuta emails can be created anonymously.


Video chat options?
I'm currently running Grapheme OS on a pixel. One thing that I've had trouble finding is a secure video chat option. I'm assuming that its because such a thing in a secure environment is hard to come by / impossible. The only options I've found are things where you must self host like element etc. Is this the only way? I realize there may be nuanced answers to this question that I may be overlooking as I'm still relatively new to online security/privacy so I apologize in advance if this is a moot question.
