i'm a bit of a tech nerd, ngl ^ // ^a part of my tech nerdiness is doing research to find the best software that makes using phones and computers as fast, pleasant, and secure as possible as possible! while keeping it convenient and easy to use.please consider using these apps in your life! i think they meet the requirement of what i want in apps. improves my phone and computer experience to make it faster, easier, secure, and convenient!

security add-ons!

i recommend installing an add-on to your internet browser that increases your security and convenience! these extensions:- block annoying ads that intend to scam you and infect your phone and computer with viruses, and blocks intrusive video ads that slow down your phone and computer- block surveillance trackers that track every place you visit on the modern internet- help keep your internet traffic safer, greener, and fasterdepending on your browser, the ad and tracker blockers i recommend are uBlock Origin, uBlock Origin Lite, or AdGuard.don't worry about choosing the right one though! the links below take ya right to the best of the three security extensions for your current browser!

using Chrome on your phone? Google doesn't support extensions to block trackers and ads on the phone app.
consider using Firefox instead!

Proton Pass

The average person has 100+ passwords. Reusing similar passwords anywhere is a huge security risk.I recommend using Proton Pass!
a password manager!
- sync all your passwords securely to every device you own - access them on any browser, computer, laptop, phone, or tablet-generate long, secure passwords for every account, especially bank accounts- protect your email from spam with email aliases (10 email aliases free)

Standard Notes

- a note-taking app!- sync all your notes securely to every device you own - access them on any browser, computer, laptop, phone, or tablet- securely end-to-end encrypted by default!

Why not the Notes app on my iPhone? Or Google Keep?By default, Apple and Google do not use end-to-end encryption. Which means strangers at these companies can read every single note in their cloud-based notes apps!
Standard Notes is different! Every note is securely encrypted on your device before it syncs to the cloud, meaning only you can read the notes.
Google Keep has zero way to turn on end-to-end encryption for your notes. Apple recently developed an option to turn on end-to-end encryption, by manually turning on Advanced Data Protection on in your iCloud settings. Click this sentence to find out how.

Proton Mail

- the better email provider!- Modern, fast, private, secure- available on any browser, computer, laptop, phone, and tablet.

Why not Gmail?Google's business thrives off of mass surveillance and mass profiling of billions of people worldwide.One of the strongest ways Google profiles what everyday people do is with billions of Gmail accounts linked to Google services: gaining access to billions of peoples' emails, phone numbers, private photos, search data, exact location data, and so much more.Google gives out their surveillance data to companies and authoritarian governments all around the world. Police have used their surveillance data to arrest those practicing civil disobedience and people protesting against state violence. Even if you trust your government now, governments can change, but your data is forever.Switching away from Gmail takes less than 10 minutes! ^ o ^Log in to Proton Mail > Settings > Import via Easy Switch > Boom! You can easily import every email from Gmail, Yahoo, or Outlook.Within a few clicks, you can set up auto-forwarding! So that all emails sent to your Gmail address will be privately forwardly to your Proton inbox! When your email arrives at Proton Mail, all trackers are removed, and it is zero-knowledge encrypted, so only you can read your email!

Signal

the best replacement for texting!secure end-to-end encryption!
iPhone + Android!

mobile + desktop app!

Why use Signal over Texting or Snapchat?When talking to someone, we shouldn't have to wonder if a stranger from Snapchat or my cell company is able to snoop in to your conversation. Well, the way it's set up, strangers from these companies can read your private messages.Text messages and Snapchat messages are not end-to-end encrypted. Meaning that strangers from the companies can read your text messages, along with anyone who intercepts the messages. When you're sharing sensitive information such as venting, passwords, or home addresses, these companies are able to see it.Signal uses industry-leading end-to-end encryption to ensure that no one can read the message except you and the people you're talking to.
The way it should be.
Why not iMessage?Unlike Microsoft and Google, Apple only makes iMessage exclusive to their own devices. This means Apple only allows 30% of phone users worldwide to use iMessage, and only 15% of computer users. Apple, unlike other companies that make messenger apps, uses this anti-competitive tactic to make people feel they should buy their products exclusively.Signal works across iOS, Android, macOS, Windows, and Linux.
Because everyone deserves easy-to-use strong, secure communication with all friends and family.
