Reply to What features do you look for in a VPN? by Rambler
Depends on what you need it for, and what you need it to do. Considerations could be:
-
No logs policy (backed up in it's TOS), and preferably certified by a 3rd party.
-
Based outside the 14-Eyes jurisdiction.
-
Reliable kill-switch.
-
No leaks.
-
GUI client.
-
Compatible with your OS.
-
Uses compatible protocol (IKEv2, Wireguard, L2TP, OpenVPN, etc.).
-
TOR friendly.
-
Multi-hop.
-
Unlimited bandwidth/fast speed.
-
No auto-renew or ability to disable it.

Reply to comment by ____ in Brave Browser leaks your Tor / Onion service requests through DNS. by Rambler
I don't have accounts at those. Well I think I may have an old Ruqqus account or something.
Feel free to share yourself. Helps this site AND more importantly, helps protect the privacy of Brave users.

Don't even bother. Post it on Reddit alternatives like Ruqqus, Poal, Phuks, Notabug, etc. instead. Don't support sites that have heavy censorship.

/r/privacy on reddit won't allow this post because:
While we (vastly) prefer the Tor Browser over the Brave one, you'll need a better source than the one you found. Can you find something from a more widely recognized NetSec expert? Something along the lines of Bruce Schneier's blog or something at that level of credibility?
Does anyone else wish to replicate this to confirm?

Definitely always just use Tor Browser on desktop, if only to prevent sites from fingerprinting you.

It's disappointing, I'm wondering if it has something to do with how Chromium works? Perhaps using Chromium as a base was a mistake.

there is no "anti censorship community" but there is a pro-censorship lobby.
This, x1,000.

Actually, e-mail verification is fine for me, as long as it will let me use aliases, like those Riseup has. But yes, I do hate CRAPTCHAs, especially the Goolag one. Sure, I can use Buster (https://github.com/dessant/buster, clear net only), but it doesn't really help when you're continuously using a service that requires it because you're still supporting the cancer.

email verify is out too, just let users register with username and password, and they have to complete non js 8 or more character image captcha. how hard is it to store usernames and passwords in db, prune old/unused accounts that haven't logged in for a while. no log vpn.

BitWarden looks pretty dang nice. Its free tier is capable enough that I don't feel the need to administer a local instance. That's just one more thing to maintain and back up.

Ubuntu has an established history of spying (or at the very least privacy invasion). Frankly I'd be more likely to trust The Reds don't have hidden code in Deepin Linux, than trust Canonical has learned its lesson.

I'll echo that Bitwarden seems pretty good. If you're the only user it might be somewhat overkill, though.
I'd recommend https://www.passwordstore.org/ but I don't think it satisfies the online requirement out of the box. But it's likely a problem someone else solved if you look around.

BitWarden seems to be pretty well liked and lately it seems to be more preferred than LastPass, and I assume with LastPass adjusting their tiers that more people will flock to BitWarden. You can self host it, as well. I believe it's all open source, unlike LastPass.
There is also KeyPassX which is pretty popular. It's not an online password manager, however. Still a pretty good option for general password management.

Covers or at least block ipv6. Some VPNs are leaking out the real ipv6!
