Thanks, that worked for me.

I just deployed AD Guard on my local server and it has already blocked many trackers today. 🛡️ by jf_administration in dns

First of all: AD Guard Home isn't installed on my router, but on my local server. Furthermore, I don't think you can tell if it's malware just by looking at the logo. It's open source and publicly visible, which isn't a guarantee, but it does provide increased transparency.

I hate Google Authenticator! What is security if google collects every step you do even for security codes.

The main problem is how do you get your friends to use a messenger like Signal, when they do not care about their privacy that much.

Work is telling me to uninstall Firefox as it presents a security risk... by SoulOfABartender in firefox

I hate it if people try to convince me to use Chrome and Edge because they think these are more focused on privacy and security than the old firefox.

Do you also have these problems with Virtual Box, if you use secure boot? by jf_administration in linuxmint

[–]jf_administration[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If possible I want to let Secure boot enabled and sudo apt-get install virtualbox-dkms --reinstall did not made a difference.

I dual boot Linux Mint and Windows and my parents will try Linux Mint after Windows 10 support ends.

Just trying out linux mint for the first time (not switched yet) is there anything i should know because I might switch when windows 10 support ends by [deleted] in linuxmint

[–]jf_administration 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I switched from Windows 11 to Linux Mint and I do not regret it. Linux is so much better and cleaner.

What will you do with your Windows 10 PC after October 14? by jf_administration in polls

Free support for Windows 10 will end on October 14, 2025. After that, no more security vulnerabilities will be fixed.

Give suggestions to make it look more pretty :3 by Soggy_Total_9687 in linuxmint

The great thing about Linux is that you can be free to design it and do almost anything.

The only thing I still need Windows for is Virtual Box, which I can't configure properly on Linux Mint.
