OT but I really don't understand these types of questions. The possible answers range from "because the ranking works that way" to "someone with privileges wanted it that way". On either end of the spectrum, the re

Another recommendation for Enpass. I started using it because they had a great desktop Linux version which worked perfectly with their Firefox & Chrome plugins. After that, paying $10 for the Android version was a no-brainer.

Hi, I'm the maintainer of that package! Unlike building from source [1], that package uses the official binary distribution and is not MIT licensed. So it might be a better idea to move the source build [1] to [community]. [1] https

Really? $0.1 per day ($0.16 w/ custom domain) for high quality, privacy oriented email is a high price? I would gladly pay quadruple that if I had to.

You have many comments in this thread complaining about... something, but I'm yet to see proof of a single bad thing that PIA has done to projects they sponsor.

The one thing that HTTPS provides on non-sensitive, or even non-interactive sites is privacy; it hides the request URI from prying eyes (ISP, government etc.) That's worth a lot to me.
