Etf type of boomer facebook shit is this

whoops im drunk thinkin of Mullvad Browser

Mull browser isn't on F-Droid?

According to r/VPNTorrents, Proton and AirVPN are the only recommended VPNs since they are the only well-established privacy-respecting ones left that still have port-forwarding. New ones are popping up with promise, like Azire and a couple others, but time will tell. As for Proton, I decided against it because of its limited port forwarding and lack of IPv6 compatibility and settled on AirVPN But Proton has genuinely great products if you're interested in the full suite. AirVPN, in my opinion, is just the last great VPN. Open-source & fully featured client, run by activists, anonymous accounts, crypto purchasing, IPv6 compatibility, full port forwarding, great support, Tor integration, the list goes on.

Damn it I knew I was forgetting one

Just use Matrix/Element or Session or Briar or Jami or Threema lol

What instances are you using? Because I have little to no issue with my self-hosted one.

Yeah that's the point. I do use my instance for links when sharing to people, but the main reason I selfhosted was for control and mostly just fun

piped.kavin.rocks or Freetube on PC, Yattee on iOS, Libretube on Android, SmartTubeNext on TV

Well they were already talking UBO and PiHoles, so I had faith lol AirVPN has the option to add blocklists to its DNS. Obviously with everything else I don't really need it, but it can't hurt.

Hahaha yeah I may have went a little berserk there

I didn't think that could block Youtube ads alone? Like Hulu and Spotify

I have almost the exact same setup! But please tell me more about this random user agent extension

For everything other than Youtube!

Haha I appreciate y'all! Next stop: Tor City

Well, to put it one way, Mullvad is almost definitely the best VPN that doesn't offer port forwarding. Which, in reality, may only be absolutely crucial for torrenting.

Ah makes sense then. Proton is my main until I get around to self-hosted email.

Thanks, not sure what happened to my poor link in transit

Same here. Was just explaining to a coworker who was complaining about YT ads that I "just" use PiHole+Unbound for network blocking, AirVPN with DNS blocking, mullvad Private DNS on Android, and then Libretube to view my self-hosted Piped instance. As I said it I realized how ridiculous it's gotten and how deranged I probably sound.

PS: AirVPN, in my opinion, is the last great VPN. Open-source, run by activists, anonymous accounts, crypto purchasing, IPv6 compatibility, full port forwarding, great support, Tor integration, the list goes on.
