What do you do when you need your password while out of the house? Because if you bring your notebook, then you’ve INSANELY decreased your security (forgotten, bag where it’s in forgotten, left lying around open, looking at it while people can check over your shoulder, it gets wet/damaged, etc.)
Firefox on desktop and Mobile. To keep browser monopoly away. All settings set to max strictness except no DNS, because I have a VPN. Firefox works on 99.9% of sites. You can use a script called Arkenfox, to harden FF even more, almost to Librewolf, but with the advantage of updates coming directly from mozilla. I love the sync function across FF, so that’s why I have it on my mobile as well, it’s seemless.
I watched an interview with the CEO on the Linux Tech Channel I believe (the french linux guy) and the problem is as usual, that the Linux userbase is too small. Proton, being a fully venture capitalist free company, meaning funded by the users (which is great), has to implement what the majority of users want and those are unfortunately IOS, Android, Windows, and a bit of MacOS. Linux is very far behind those, so comparing the size of the user base vs the amount of features, I’d say Proton isn’t doing too badly.
I always recommend Proton Pass. A) because they have a forever free version and B) because hopefully they start looking into the whole suite in general and even if they don’t subscribe, they are more aware afterwards (hopefully).
Don’t go with Intel. Anyone recommending intel should be ashamed and should have kept up with the tech news about Intel’s CPUs basically burning up and Intel ignoring the issue, including all the warranty claims. NO INTEL. AMD Cpu and Gpu, because AMD develops more for Linux than Nvidia does. But you could still go for Nvidia (if you want raytracing on in games).
