Re: information that is good to be shared

1.any librefork of firefox, im usually use them with hardened config, not much experience of trying i2p and tor since i dont know many of their links
2.none, i prefer web forum though, all messages are well archived and easy to browse
3.riseup net, tutanota, & disposible and anonim email
4.my libre entertaiment
videos:peertube
music:free music archive
images:unsplash,pexel
social:mastodon
books:wikipedia
other:internet archive org, wikimedia
5.refer to 4 & 3
6.any libre crypto software, im using doge, recommend xmr but they re pricy

the important thing i want to say is:

in this present day of libre world, we already have many things to do for your lifetime enjoyment.

if you willing to go and venture forth into far reach of libre utopia there will be many interesting things and infinite discovery as time goes on, so just go with the flow and embrace freedom smile .

Re: information that is good to be shared

I use parabola. Hyperbola lacks packages which I strongly need. I would switch to hyperbola as soon as it has more packages.

1. Iceweasel with 'noscript' and 'privacy redirect' add-ons. I use torbrowser for tor. (Librejs breaks everything up for me.)
2. parabola, searx, guix. (I too prefer forums and matrix above irc)
3. Tutanota. It's too difficult to set up an email service. I read stuff in FreeBSD handbook.
4. Invidious , transmission-qt helps and music is not very conveinient yet. I download songs to my mobile and listen.
5. Conversations(XMPP), Fluffychat(matrix), Tox.
6. Cash. I would love to use monero but no one accepts it here in India.

I use notabug, pixelfed, gnusocial, telegram foss(I prefer xmpp), gpa(for encryption), inkscape, freecad.

Today, the forces which make richer and poor poorer have their roots in computer security. Never has it been more important to work towards abolishing the power of the powerful.

Let's use hyperbola or other libre OSes and strive towards stateless hardware (Rutkowska 2015). Let's use GNU/Linux phones and shun Android. Let's make our data available to everyone or else absolutely no one.

Re: information that is good to be shared

well for me i would say that im starting new by mistake or maybe a good thing i lost all my emails and all my internet bookmarks and invidious bookmarks anyway all and all
so now im trying to use :

1- iceweasel-uxp with privoxy runing i2P and tor and clearnet with just dnscrypt-proxy
addons "https always" "No Resource URI Leak" "Noscript" "Random Agent Spoofer" "RequestPolicy Continued"
i dont know if its a good idea or not but this is what im doing or trying to do

2- im not sure about wich irc client to go with but for now im using Konversation with tor and #hyperbola or other channels wen i need to ask

3- for emails i used tutanota before but now cause im using no javascript i went with https://danwin1210.me/ i also use there chat

4- cause i lost all my bookmarks of invidious im not using it much but i watch there some of what i remember music as well
movies and anime im not watching for months now

5- my friends in Algeria here dont use any libre software to speak so i only use emails with some but im looking for new things

6- i use cash and i would love to use a stable coin that is decentralized and private just like monero volatility of the price wont help mainstream use

i dont use facebook and skype and steam and all others for years now lost so much gaming friends but life goes on we meet on the after shortlife test  smile
open to learn new things i think i will open a new post were we will list all sitewebs that are intresting from i2P tor and clearnet

Re: information that is good to be shared

well @rached you dont make any mistake by losing something for greater goods

internet

im dont prefer bookmarks or online saving technology

you can get the complete control and full access of your favorite data by saving them down offline, ex:
1.save the webpage or links
2.copy important text into txt
3.get a screenshot
etc

games

meet your new gaming friends:
https://forums.hyperbola.info/viewtopic … 14&p=3
try stone-soup its fun and available in the hyperbola reposirories right now

multimedia

im also dont like streaming, always grab and saved my favorites multimedia offline and enjoy them freely later, online just meant for discovery

oh btw im also an otaku smile

i could start looking and will find a good number of them im sure, books in pdf and epub some notes on text files idk

but now im planing on not loosing that much anymore even if something caryzi happens again

for games i dont play anymore i miss that time i wont lie but i have more to do in real life like @cynicfm i also focuse more on reading and learning usefull stuff here and there then wasting my time on some strategy game that i love so much tongue

i wich i could watch some anime but i couldn't find a place were i can download without using javascript if u know a torrent siteweb please share

Re: information that is good to be shared

1 - I use Firefox-ESR with the following add-ons:
uBlock Origin, uMatrix, HTTPZ, FireMonkey, CSS Exfil Protection, Header Editor, CanvasBlocker,
ClearURLs, Decentraleyes, Neat URL, Request Control, Skip Redirect, Smart Referrer and Temporary Containers. I follow this guide here: https://github.com/arkenfox/user.js/wiki/4.1-Extensions

I also modified my browsers config, using this
https://github.com/arkenfox/user.js/wiki/1.1-Overview

I don't use Tor yet and I don't plan to until I have a libreboot Thinkpad with a libre OS installed. Even then, I want to only connect to Tor via a VPN paid for with crypto.

2 - I dont particularly use IRC regularly

3 - I use Posteo as my email provider (Suggested by the Free Software Foundation)
Though I always access my emails via Claws.

4 - I like to watch Youtube videos on invidious.snopyta.org which is an open-source front-end of YT which prevents Google from tracking you. I always set the proxy server on so I can play videos without needing JavaScript.

5 - I like to use Signal and Telegram for my text messages.

6 - I use Paypal like most people do. I would like to use Cryptocurrency more often if I can afford it, though I did make a purchase with Monero once a few years ago.

If I have to use Bitcoin, I would like to use the Wasabi Wallet which anonymizes your BTC transactions via Tor as far as I know.

Re: information that is good to be shared

Iceweasel-uxp in a sandbox with cookies and javascript disabled. No addons; I don't trust them unless I've written them. Privoxy is running system-wide. I don't use tor or i2p. Tor is too slow. I use a vpn.

Epiphany in a sandbox when I absolutely need to have js enabled.

I have Protonmail for important stuff and Posteo for non-important email.

Invidious for youtube videos.

I'm on a Mastodon instance.

thank you for sharing i would advise using posteo for important stuff and protonmail for non-important just my opinion though im interested to know why you did that!

# i would like to update im now not using invidious but yt-local anyone can try the demo at https://yt.conocimientoslibres.ga/https://youtube.com
and i quote heckyel "just remember that yt-local is not designed to be put on a server for everyone because then Google blocks the instance due to many requests to the server"
this is just a demo if you want to use it install on your local machine 

git clone https://libregit.org/heckyel/yt-local
cd yt-local
virtualenv -p python3 venv
source venv/bin/activate
pip install -r requirements.txt
python server.py

at last you have configuration with OpenRC here
