I wish Mullvad and IVPN kept port forwarding or find a way to bring it back without having too much legal trouble.

I hope IVPN and others starts using RAM only servers in the future.

Keep in mind not all "privacy coins" are private. Some claim to be private because they have a privacy mode or just simply use IP obfuscation.

All monero transactions are private. The sender, reciever and amount are hidden. This is a true privacy coin because of these three features.

ZCash privacy is opt in

Dash I do not consider to be a privacy coin but is called a privacy coin since it has a privacy send mode.

There is Firo which I have not used much but I believe its privacy is opt in

Zano is a privacy coin that looks promising.

fmhy.ml domain was seized due to the mali government taking back control of their TLD. Then they reappeared under lemmy.fmhy.net and then disappeared again but I do not know why.

Just annoying seeing this large dead instance still federated with lemmy.world and many other large instances.

For audiobooks I go to audiobookstore.com and buy gifts cards using a credit card and I buy the credit cards from Cakepay or Trocador.

Very simular to the airgapped wallet

Very cool indeed. Would be great if you can use other wallets instead of Nero such as Stack Wallet and Cake Wallet.

Are all files on OwnCloud E2EE weather one has a personal cloud storage account or has an account on a team were files are E2EE for all users that are apart of the same team? E2EE were the server admins cannot see anyones filea, folders, file names, folder names and other metadata?

I use Monero btw.

I wish there was more Trezor support for more coins and for more software wallets. I would argue Trezor is more secure then using any USB stick.

I could port forward both. However I would prefer to only port forward one protocol on the port number for additional security. I cannot find any definite answer online saying you need to port forward the same port TCP and UDP or a definite answer that you need to port forward only one port as TCP or UDP.

Designated servers offer no technically advantageous feature set for P2P. They simply keep the P2P traffic separate from other traffic so that non P2P server latencies remain lower and more responsive.

So what is the purpose of NordVPN P2P servers?

What P2P traffic will they block on normal servers? Bittorrent traffic?

Essentially the P2P servers do not have port forwarding of any kind, they are servers were torrenting is allowed and in juristrictions that tolerate bittorrent traffic to an extent?

If you do and lose access to the email you used to signup to lemmy. Can Lemmy lock you out when you do not have access to your email?

How do proxies work with port forwarding? Are proxies an option? No matter what I will use a VPN at all times but by using a proxy in your bittorrent client, could you get "port forwarding" functionality?
