GP probably asked whether Mull was shortname for the Mullvad browser.

A tip is to host your own domain at an e-mail provider that allow you to receive e-mail for any recipient in a single mailbox (i.e. catch-all or wildcard), and use the following alias format when signing up at different websites or services:

<website>@<yourdomain.tld>

This allows you to filter incoming e-mail by which website/service you signed up for, regardless of what domain they send e-mail from (it can be different for account notifications vs newsletters etc.).

It will also help you detect if they have sold your contact details or had a data breach without announcing it publicly, since you wouldn’t use that specific e-mail alias elsewhere.

Good point! The details for each app are crowdsourced and can be submitted via the instructions here. However, the default templates does not include any mention of root status.

The maintainer of the site can be reached via any medium listed here if anyone would like to suggest updating the templates to include root status.

Thank you! Updated the post with a link to this resource.

DivestOS sounds interesting but I am wary of any “mission-critical” software project (such as the firmware for my primary phone) that relies on a single person, for multiple reasons. Burnout and potential for social engineering by malicious actors being two of them.

GP:s comment made me curious as well. Usually, if multiple hardware vendors are supported there are separate branches with different maintainers. It doesn’t necessarily mean that the main codebase is bloated as a result.

For those that are looking to install GrapheneOS and want to ensure that their banking apps work as intended, here is a curated list of supported apps per country:

CPU vulnerability mitigations would typically be distributed with the intel-microcode package for Intel processors on Debian-based distributions, for example.

And QubesOS isnt based on linux kernel. It uses Xen. Linux is used in the Qubes aka VMs.

The dom0 is very much running a Linux kernel, the same way your domU:s are typically running Linux kernels (although you could probably run any kernel in hvm mode).

As an example, here is the documentation on how to manage updates for the dom0 kernel:

They went crying about WPEngine having found a good business model around Wordpress support, and started sabotaging for them.

Looks like they lost in court a few days ago!

Comments aren’t normally accessible unless you (independently) open and read the source code file as you would with any arbitrary file.

If you’re looking for single people, Tinder or Grindr is probably a better place

+1 for Voyager! Writing this comment using it :-)
