You just installed GrapheneOS on your phone and you think you're ready to go. But it still isn't enough. Here are 9 apps that I would install to protect my Digital Privacy 👇
1/ Obtainium + AppVerifier For start, you need an app to install the other apps. You will use Obtainium to download them (and for checking updates), AppVerifier to verify the signatures. https://github.com/ImranR98/Ob...
2/ Mullvad VPN / @ivpnnet When we're ready to install other apps, install VPN to protect your traffic and IP address. Mullvad and IVPN are my recommendations. Pay with Monero. https://mullvad.net/en/downloa...
@ivpnnet 3/ KeePassDX / @Bitwarden To store & generate unique passwords, install password manager. KeePassDX stores your password offline, Bitwarden on server. In both cases, remember to backup your password vault. https://github.com/Kunzisoft/K...
@ivpnnet @Bitwarden 4/ Aegis / @Enteio Auth Passwords are not enough. Use 2FA app for TOTP code generating. Again, make sure to backup those codes. As a next level, you can get hardware 2FA such as YubiKey or NitroKey. https://getaegis.app
@ivpnnet @Bitwarden @enteio 5/ SimpleX Now we are finally getting somewhere. To stay in contact with others, use E2EE messenger. My best pick is @SimpleXChat. > Decentralised > Multiple profiles > No unique Identifier > No phone number required.
@ivpnnet @Bitwarden @enteio @SimpleXChat 6/ Monero Wallet (@Cake / @Stack_Wallet/ @anoneroio ...) To pay with Monero, you're gonna need a wallet. Check out these two and pick what suits you the best. !!! BACKUP THE SEED AND DON'T SHOW IT TO ANYONE !!!
@ivpnnet @Bitwarden @enteio @SimpleXChat @cake @stack_wallet @anoneroio 7/ Syncthing-fork If you want to sync any files to your computer (photos, KeePass vault...) without relying on cloud provider, use Syncthing. 1. Download it on your computer 2. Make sure to enable Launch on start-up 3. Download Syncthing-fork on your phone 4. Connect your phone
@ivpnnet @Bitwarden @enteio @SimpleXChat @cake @stack_wallet @anoneroio 8/ Organic Maps Seriously, stop using Google Maps. With organic maps, you get majority of the features without the spying. Works both on foot and in car. Might lack precision inside due to weak GPS signal. https://organicmaps.app/

Should you use a search engine or a chatbot for your question? With Brave Search, you don't have to decide. Our new feature, Ask Brave, combines search and AI chat into one. Ask Brave is free and available now on all platforms and browsers.
STOP USING GOOGLE DRIVE AND PHOTOS Use this instead: Self-hosted: - Immich - Nextcloud Cloud: - Ente - ProtonDrive And remember that cloud is just someone else computer.
No one should have to choose between using the internet and protecting their privacy. But that’s exactly the tradeoff that governments and most platforms demand.
The internet has been completely shut down in Afghanistan, according to our internal data. Our tools help to bypass censorship, but here access has been cut off. We stand against acts like this and believe that both privacy & freedom of speech are human rights. (Timezone CEST)
