Nice that it works for you, but not everyone requires such high protections or would be able to use GrapheneOS as their daily driver. So I personally disagree with your conclusion.
Thank you for sharing ur experience!

Disclaimer: I haven't used GrapheneOS myself since I don't own a Google Pixel or another supported devices. I exclusively speak from what I know about the project itself and from other people who used it (You can buy me one so I can try it lol).
I consider those people who are downvoting my comment without kindly explaining why in a comment as the infamous toxic GOS fanboys many people within the privacy community are talking abt.
Surfshark has a lot of read flags imo, my threat model doesn't require a VPN, but if I would have to choose one it would be probably Mullvad, IVPN or ProtonVPN
Just read what changes and patches have been done to each of these forks you consider and decide for yourself.
But nothing in there is inaccurate. Maybe overstated.
Do your homework.. 🙄
Seriously, fact check before you comment something which is not true. I will reply later wth a longer response when I got time to :)
They CEO made an direct attack against Signal, spreading misinformation to promote Teleguard. I think that says it all.

Yea, Americans are much more trustworthy
Its got some hefty promises, like having equally strong privacy features as Librewolf.
It doesn't, check yourself.
I think for your use case Signal could be a good alternative, don't listen to what people say, I would rather encourage you doing ylur own research on Signal and other recommendations you might gonna consider.
TL;DR: No.
You won't get hack by only clicking on this link (except if their is a critical exploit in your browser which makes it possible).
It's unable to indentify Brave every time with my personal setup...
I would put WhatsApp in a Work Profile via e.g. Shelter. It's isolates it from the rest of device. I would also avoid putting PII on your profile like your full name, a photo as pfp, your bio, etc.

I'm at a point where I'd like to play certain games, but I dislike that they're exclusively available on consoles and Steam for Desktop. Steam's Privacy Policy and Terms of Service raise concerns about my personal security and privacy. I'm looking for advice on how to improve my privacy while using Steam.
Thank you in advance!

I accidentally removed a MicroSD card from an Android device running Android 12 while it was being ejected. This happened because it took longer than usual (less than a few seconds), and I pulled it out without looking at the notification. Now, when I insert the MicroSD card into any Android device, it tells me to format it to use it, as a problem has occurred. It also gives me the option to format it and extend the internal storage. The third option is to skip both and do it later, which keeps the SD card unreadable by the system. The MicroSD card contains a lot of data that's important to me, and unfortunately, I had no backup, as I always considered my MicroSD as an external storage medium for such data. I would really appreciate any help on how I can resolve this issue and make the SD card data accessible again by Android.
Thank you for reading! 🥲
Edit: Don't ask me why or how. But I put the SD Card into a phone running Android 14, and booted it. The SD Card could be actually read by the phone after it finished booting. I turned the phone off again, pulled the SD card out and put it back into it's original running Android 12 and magically it works again! My theory is that the Android 14 recognized and automatically fixed what was wrong and this made the card readable again to older Android versions.
Thanks to everyone who commented!
