I just share it cause I like how cryptee becomes better and better with each update :) Document templates, massive performance improvements and more.

 

And when to buy xbt or xmr without kyc in EU when both localmonero and localbitcoin are closed?

So in your opinion is not worth to use any these online services and better go offline?

In my country it isn't an option. I can only use virtual revolut prepaid or gift cards.

Why most services that want to protect user privacy. Also those on privacyguides, don't have anonymous payment methods like cryptocurrencies? I pay for a few such services like email or cloud etc. but I don't know if it makes sense if my bank knows I'm using it anyway so they can sell that info to advertisers, gov, etc. In EU services like mysudo or privacy.com are unavailabe so I can't use masked cards. What is then the profit of using such services if I don't pay for them with cryptocurrencies and they can be easily linked to me?

You wrote that if the activists used proton VPN to register their mail account, proton would not have the information he needed to pass on. It's not true cause they would probably have the same metadata about them.

Yes, you had me cause I write only about keys, but I thought also about backdoors on gov demand.

Had the activist been using proton vpn to create and access their email, Proton would not have had the info they were forced to give up.

What? If protonmail collects any metadata, why do you assume protonVPN doesn't?

Idk, maybe I'm wrong. Notesnook is recommended by privacyguides at all. All my mistrust comes from the fact that such countries are not famous for respecting human rights. What if the government forces the owners to give up the keys? Maybe it's an unrealistic scenario cause data is encrypted.

No, I'm not saying that I don't trust proton at all. I think that they have great services but as I wrote in the title - don't put all eggs in one basket.

I think I won't trust any company with holding ALL my data.

I know these apps but none of them is as good as standard notes in my opinion. Notesnook seems fine but I don't like fact that it is based in Pakistan. I used Joplin before buying a sub for standard notes so I know it.

Currently I have also subscription on Crypt.ee for photos but there is also a notes app integrated. Maybe I'll start using it. Developer of cryptee was very active on reddit and he seems like a man who values privacy and security.

But I hope that simply proton will not force the migration of standard notes accounts to proton accounts and for old users everything will be as before.

 

If the owner of the standard notes will now be a proton, doesn't that contradict this principle? I have a proton email account but I don't want it linked to my standard notes account. I don't strongly trust companies that offer packaged services like google or Microsoft. I prefer to have one service from one company. I am afraid that now I will have to change where I save my notes. What do you guys think about this?

Ok, but what does it mean, is that, when proton will be compromised, all of your data also can be compromised. When we have our data divided between different independent services, compromising one does not mean violating the others.

Where do you find alternatives for your subreddits? I found most of them but for these I can't find any alternatives so I'm still using old.reddit and redreader.
