Hi all, a shy try to awake this community again :)
Whats your daily-routine for privacy, what are you using, what are you not doing?
Short summary of me:
- Phone -> LineageOS
- VPN -> Per perimeter (LAN, Mobile) -> different VPN providers
- Home network (More for security but also helps detecting privacy invasive applications) -> Firewall, IDS and ISP router is bridged
- Payment -> Cash where possible (Saved me some trouble when card machines were offline and most had to go somewhere else to have a meal)
- Browser -> Three to four different ones, per usage I use a different (Media, communication, bank etc)
- Browser extensions -> UblockOrigin, Decentraleyes, User-AGent-Switcher and NoScript
- Browser cache/history -> deleted once a month (I do not use credentials saved inside browsers)
- Online Calls -> Matrix
- OS -> Linux only household
- Mail -> Different providers and own domain with catch-all, so if a company sells my mail I will see it because it is COMPANYNAME@MYDOMAIN.COM
Thats on top of my head, what are your takes?
Thanks for the insights, I’m also in the process of moving to more self-hosted services. Just finished transferring my media library to a Jellyfin instance for local movie/series watching. I also plan on self-hosting Matrix and Seraxng, will be my next project for the holidays.
I’m long thinking about installing the PI-Hole, I should just do it, not much work to do for a great addition to the network.
