Brave vs Firefox?

Reply in thread

Firefox is a little more complicated than that. Yes, the Mozilla Foundation is a non-profit, however it's subsidiary the Mozilla Corporation is not. It's better than Google but like all things, it's worth asking where the money comes from.

New house, new server - step 1: update diagram

For media streaming, what mattered most for me was client software. When I first started with Jellyfin, the Roku client wasn't as feature rich as the Android and web. I stayed with Plex until the Roku Jellyfin clients had what I needed.

If you're just on Android and the web, you should be fine with Jellyfin. If you've got a smart TV with it's own app store, you may look at what's there and what features are available.

Can't choose a secure email provider!

PGP is great. If you learn how to use it on your own device, it doesn't matter what host you use. If you post your OS, I'll can point you to instructions on setting it up locally.

You're never going to get the bulk of senders (library, town council, your aging parents) to encrypt their mail to you. Can you make peace with that?

It is important to find a host that has a funding model based on subscriptions instead of monetizing users.

My recommendation is find a host with a good subscription model and in a county that respects user privacy. I like KolabNow in Switzerland.
