that’s why I love great communities like this one here. you aks one think, maybe totally overthinking and read an answer like this, which helps you realize the overthinking :)

thanks for that. what you say makes sence. I really NEED to make a threat-model to find out, what is worth keeping private and what isn’t worth the trouble.

Thank you :)

oh ok, I have not tried that yet. I have only set up one address which I use yo send and receive from.

about the encryption: I thought the point with e2ee encryption on proton is mainly, that the mails are stored encrypted one their servers so they can not read them or hand them out to anyone.

oh so only when using their client I have the e2ee for the emails on their server? kind of makes sence but def. a point to take into consideration.

I looked inyo runbox and it looks like a really good option. what concerns me is, that it is hosted in Norway and that Norway is part of the “Fourteen Eyes alliance”. Would you still recommend it?

do you know theit reason?

i already bookmarked the list, great work btw. I will look into the options you wrote.

well the easy if use for the temp-emails is better on proton I’d say. and keeping files in Switzetland is better then saving them in Germany (i think).

i like to have temp-adresses but it is a little to annoying for me to extend them after 90 days 🙈 with proton this is easier since you dont need to remeber that and you can find this option pretty easy when in tge webbrowser of choice.

reading my post would’ve help ;)

another great point. thank you

well I’d say signal is one of the best options as there are many others. Regarding the phonenumber: as far as I know, it is stored hashed so signal does not really know your phonenumber. so this would not concern me.

hm I dont really agree on this. it is a swiss service (i think) but it is all closed source so that is a red-flag for me (if talking about privacy or transparency).

you are correct and it is true that it is better to have many options. Although it is a little iffy that still many people belive in the fact, that it is private and secure.

Also I totally agree on what you are saying: dont push people into something they dont want simply explain the possible downsides and move on.

I’d still wouldn’ t use it so communicating with me is will still not be done via Telegramm :D

sad but very true 🙈

awesome, thanks for the link, I will have a look 👍

oh yeah that is a good point (well tge encryption-part and the one with the group-chats). they will not understand why this is bad but that should be easy yo explain (i guess :D ).

what exactly do you mean by “telegram premium stuff”?

nice page but I guess useless when a cookie-concent-thingy pops up.

sad but not impossible 🙈

Hardened Firefox on my PC and Waterfox on my phone. Reason: mostly because I have been using Firefox for a long time and I want to stay away from Chromioum-based browsers (but not out of privacy concerns :) ).
