+1 that's what I do at home with my desktop and what is IMHO the best solution.
Yet on vacation I use an old android box with Android Tv (SlimTv) and I have to say it's nice to have a dedicated interface allowing use of a remote.

IMHO I am not an expert but Mullvad seems the best (from what I read from others) and I would stick with it. I am using it and happy with it. I also appreciate that their monthly price do not change depending on how many months you subscribe and that there is no bullshit discount for the first x months.
You could also look at Proton VPN if you need port forwarding.

About SurfShark don't have much opinion !

I don't understand the down votes
=> I always read up and down votes as a tool to flag valuable posts. It feels like down vote on this one is about agreement with the news?

I will probably try it but I am not expecting much. I wasn't a fan of the old one. Not to offense anyone but I felt like it was dumb.
Still it looks like a lot of people are hyped about it so maybe I will be surprised !

I guess she hadn't a phone on her or she was off grid? It would have been nice if article mentioned it. Without that info I have doubts about whether the story is true or not... 🤔

What I find annoying is for what you occasionally use.

For instance I started to listen more frequently to a songs service (which I was bypassing ads) and so I thought to officially subscribe. When I looked at prices I didn't because it was too costly and knowing me I could stop anyday to use it. Price for one was above 10 when for two it was something like 14 so 7 per person and which I would have been ok to pay. Good for me because I stopped to listen some weeks after and it has beek years I didn't really use it.

I think, especially for video and audio media consumption, you should pay a global amount and it should be split between services you used. Split should be based on usage.

Perfect thanks. I looked at your profil and your old comments to determine if you were Kevin. Maybe it would have been obvious for a lot of people but I really thought : "hey is it really nova's dev on lemmy? That would be so cool for Lemmy !"

Not to be annoying but you should edit to make it clear you are not Kevin Barry and you are just quoting.

On my work computer I don't have admin rights but still I could install Firefox with no problems. It installed itself for local user only.

About that you can check this new extension : https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/chrome-mask/

Yet I feel it's better to avoid using it and report web compatibility problems. Always masking user agent could led to believe only supporting chrome is sufficient.

Using MyExpenses which is perfect to let you track your bank accounts.

It's the only app I found which let you reconcile operations with bank statement.

What I do is using synching to sync my files on my PC when I am at home. You could also manually back it up on a cloud drive.

Anyway I think it's best practice to store somewhere recovery codes.
