My threat model is generally removing as much passive data gathering and tracking as possible, corporate or state. My threat model does not include active investigation from the law enforcement or state

Honestly just route your tcp traffic through Tor, even if you’re being snooped on by guard and exit nodes owned by the state when using clearnet sites, no advertiser is going to know who you are, and state owned exit nodes aren’t going to investigate you for visiting random common clearnet sites (note even if you’re deanonymized you’re still protected by tls). No reason to pay for a VPN for this, and the more Tor users the safer Tor gets against certain types of attacks.

It’s worth noting neither a VPN nor Tor will protect you from advertisers fingerprinting you due to poor opsec; and that is very difficult to get around if you’re doing something like using popular social media platforms with an account.

Linux: qemu

OpenBSD: vmm, qemu when vmm isn’t good enough

add phosh and sxmo for mobile interfaces. I don’t know if the sxmo wayland compositor has an official name; the X11 one is dwm based though.

I don’t run an OS on my phone or laptop that could run a proprietary banking app in the first place. Can’t be inconvenienced if you don’t know what convenience feels like in the first place.

Privacy doesn’t need any justification to why it’s important any more than why someone molesting you on the street doesn’t need a detailed explanation as to why it’s bad. Corporations and states are dirty abusers that want to know about and sell every part of your private life, and that should make you uncomfortable. Having to justify why you deserve privacy in the face of this form of abuse is simply victim blaming.

I prefer not using journaling filesystems on flash memory, I haven’t had any major data integrity issues yet because of it. I would have made the Alpine fs ext2 as well, but I guess I missed it during install. I think you can just disable journaling in ext4 anyways, so if I care enough I’ll just do that.

Edit: reasons added in because I can’t read the post title

• OpenBSD laptop: ffs2, vfat for efi system partition
  • Why: Contrary to popular belief, OpenBSD does not support zfs. The only other filesystem options are msdos (fat family), and ext2fs (mostly for Linux compatibility as far as I can tell, filesystem is experimental and lacks a bunch of features according to the manpage). Makes ffs2 the only sane option.
• OpenBSD vps: ffs2
  • Why: See above.
• Pinephone running PmOS: ext2 boot partition, ext4 root partition
  • Why: Defaults.
• Void Linux VM: ext2
  • Why: I prefer not having journaling on flash memory. This hasn’t bitten me in the ass too hard yet, and even when it does I can usually get around system files being lost with integrity tools. Maybe I’ll dabble with f2fs some day, but I’ll need to read about its features and shortcomings compared to ext2.
• Alpine Linux VM: ext4
  • Why: Would have installed as ext2 as well, but I forgot
• Steam Deck: ??? (too lazy to check, 9/10 chance it’s ext4)

I’m going to conclude you’re lying and haven’t actually used a webkit browser, because in terms of feature parity with blink and gecko, webkit is pretty good. Maybe some stuff breaks with RTC WASM and other questionable browser capabilities, but for 99% of the web they’re fine. All of the browsers I’ve recommended are regularly updated (except links, superceded by links2), all of them are “modern”. If I wanted to recommend old dead browsers, I would recommend retawq, dillo, elinks or xombrero. Even textmode only browsers are very usable for documentation and reading news and blogs.

FYI you should probably be blocking/whitelisting cookies client-side anyways. At the very least, disable third party cookies.

Thank you for teaching me a new word. I would hardly call using webkit instead of gecko idealistic, but normies gonna normie, I guess.

If you don’t know how to differentiate between a dev having stupid idpol takes and an ad-company feigning to be a privacy organization mass-distributing spyware and adware inside privacy conscious communities then I can’t help you.

I prefer to call him Toddler Tonguing Trump, but you do you.

There’s a decent selection at the moment:

If you need javascript+css: qtwebkit, gtkwebkit, qtwebengine ( blink based :( ), Ladybird (I really don’t care if the dev sucks; goolag/mozilla’s browser monopoly is too important for me to care about some stupid idpol takes)

If you don’t need javascript but want css: netsurf (there is technically javascript support, but it’s worked absolutely nowhere in my experience)

If you’re an epic hackor that doesn’t need either: w3m, links2, links, lynx

I mostly use w3m, but I use qutebrowser (qtwebkit and qtwebengine) when I need js. I’ll probably replace qutebrowser with Ladybird once there’s a port for OpenBSD (trying to write my own at the moment).

I will not be voting, except for local candidates. I encourage the capitalist zionist fascist pigs and all their supporters and apologists for the DNC and GOP to go neck rope.
