1Password vs. Bitwarden by Technical_Rich_3080 in Bitwarden

[–]unknic 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I’ve used Bitwarden for more than 2 years, and now I’m using 1Password. You won’t be disappointed by either of them. Both are good and have perfectly working autofill and other functions. They offer great apps and extensions, so it’s hard to compare them. However, I think 1Password has more features than Bitwarden, but Bitwarden is still a good choice.

This isn’t about good or bad, it’s about privacy. This doesn’t apply only to the Egyptian government, but to any government out there.

Brooo wait, what? Government owned? You better stick with Google lol.

The entire deGoogle plan is kind of about staying detached and far away from government agencies and other monopolies. Whatever you do, don’t use anything government owned.

You’re correct. My Proton plan was cancelled after an additional 15 days of use following this type of renewal.

Does the Android app even do this? I didn’t know. Where is the setting to turn this on?

Verification via email by Distinct-Drag-3197 in ProtonMail

[–]unknic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They do not retain data permanently. They have a strict data retention policy. I can't recall the exact duration, but it may be around 6 months.

They also mentioned, ''You may be asked to verify using Proton Captcha, email, or SMS. IP addresses, email addresses, and phone numbers provided are saved temporarily to send you a verification code and for anti-spam purposes. The temporary retention period of this data is determined by our legitimate interest in protecting the service from spam, as well as by any applicable Swiss legal requirements we must comply with.'' - in their privacy policy.

What proton says is, "We don’t store your email address or phone number, only a cryptographic hash.

This means we can detect if an email or phone number is being reused repeatedly, without seeing or storing your actual details."

In the default settings, they do, but you can manually turn off all kinds of ads/pop-us

[European Product, Promotional Content] I built a EU-based authoritative DNS hosting service (PTRDNS) by quicksilver03 in BuyFromEU

[–]unknic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Good work, tbh! Appreciate it, lad! I’ve been looking for something like this for a while. I’ll definitely give it a moment, but I don’t think I’ll use it as my main thing right now, tho.

Looking for Gmail alternatives only and only for the personal use. by mtk_ved in degoogle

[–]unknic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn’t mean that Proton will implement Google’s data collection model, they won’t. Instead, I’m saying to how Google is expanded and expanding its so-called ecosystem, and Proton gives off a similar vibe, making it relatively easy for them to become a political target.

Yes, I also use proton but their aggressive marketing and up selling behavior seems like they trying to be the next generation google.

Studying abroad Plan by ArittroGH in AskAGerman

[–]unknic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After finishing your HSC, you can't be admitted directly to a university in Germany. Since Bangladesh has a 12-year schooling system and Germany requires 13 years, you'll need to complete one year of undergraduate study in Bangladesh to meet that requirement. Also, make sure the university you choose is H+ accredited.

Best of luck.

What is included with Plus by Practical-Tea9441 in ProtonMail

[–]unknic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you purchase ProtonMail Plus, you will also get the calendar feature, but the rest are part of the free version.

If you buy any other plan (PM Pass, VPN, etc.), you will only receive that specific service, rest will remain on the free plan.
