I only eat open cookies.

Only support english for now.

We need decentralized forge such as radicle.dev to become more mainstream and people seeding tons of repo!

There is a cool fork: https://tahoma2d.org/

Yes blockchain is an horible database design for efficiency. If it’s decentralised, open and permissionless, if not you just don’t need a blockchain.

But it’s good at immutability.

I have started constibuting to the AlternativeTo data and added many apps (mostly foss) over the years. It is a great platform with a great team and community.

But it still is a business and for now I’m fine with it being that.

We have Monero and Bitcoin, both are Free Software and public infrastructure that have been running for over a decade with little to no issues at all. I have donated myself to many projects over the last 4 years using these methods.

But FOSS advocates and leftists hate money so much they prefer donate through centralized, data-mining, corporate-owned, KYC-ridden, transaction-censoring payment processor that freezes funds on a whim like PayPal, GitHub or Patreon using state issued currency that funds wars like petrodollar is…

• Infomaniak kSuite
• Zaclys and other similar entities
• Murena Workspace (Had a breach a few years ago)
• Proton

For photos only +1 for Ente Photos, very good product. I’ve been paying for more than a year and improvements are always made from their team. Everything is FOSS and e2ee + well documented even for less techincal nerds. The only thing I don’t like is the company being registered in the USA.

You really thing they can do targeted tracking with banknote serial numbers? This is paranoia my friend :D

Yes, I tried it when it was in beta but it is now officially launched (so shouldn’t be experimental anymore). The main difference with traditionnal VPNs is that it rely on the nym mixnet which is a decentralized network that is routing packets and noise packets of the exact same size and mixing them through relay nodes. Basically it’s a new gen Tor network (without hidden services).

The app let you access the full mixnet in Anonymity mode which is 5 hops and thus extremely slow but suitable for messaging, e-mail, etc… But it has heavy battery use on mobile, at least when I tried it. That’s because it has to constently send fake packets for noise. It also let you use Fast mode which reduce the hops to two and thus is less private than Anonymity. However NYM, the company is not running any nodes, these are community runned unlike most VPN companies. Which is making Fast mode actually more private than a single hop VPN such as NordVPN.

Another interesting thing they did for registration is generating a Zero-Knowledge proof of payment that is untied to your payment informations. And thus does not require an account to register similar to IVPN and MullvadVPN.

These are the payment methods supported:

• Credit Card
• Crypto (including Monero)
• Apple Pay
• Google Pay
• Cash
• Nym token

They are building a decentralized infrastructure with a tokenomics incentive for good behavior from nodes. They have their own blockchain on COSMOS and it is untied to the mixnet part. I’m not really into tokenomics and if you look at the price you can clearly see that the NYM token got dumped on the market by initial investors (like most crypto projects), will see how it plays in the future but I think they are right that the main issue with Tor is that nodes don’t have economical incentive and thus is compromised by feds allowing targeting deanonymization attacks on specific users.
