It is not perfect but it is by far the best thing we have. If it's legal for you to use you should be doing so.
For sensitive operations you should take further steps (follow the blog) like properly setting up your device, and connecting via a network not connected to you
Register an email over tor browser, use that to verify a Lemmy account over tor browser, only ever access over tor browser. Be mindful of what you say and post.
If you are worried about fingerprinting you should only consider mullvad browser and tor browser.
The LibreWolf/arkenfox approach only is effective against "naive scripts" and essentially withholds, spoofs, or randomizes when it can.
MB and TB on the other hand unify all of its users' fingerprints to appear as identical as possible. This crowd blending is dramatically more effective at protecting you.
Probably not IMEI as 3rd party android applications haven't been able to see that since android 10 (there are other persistent identifiers such as widevine DRM ID)
You probably realise but even if they could, you could get around this by simply using the web browser to access Reddit
Yeah I consider getting a silent.link esim paid with monero every now and then but I feel a lot better leaving it in perma airplane mode and not interacting with cell towers/stingrays at all.
I could buy a sim with cash as well but if I wanted to maintain opsec I'd have to travel to another city every time I turn it on and that's too much work for me atm
These are .onion Tor hidden services (darknet sites)
To access them you must use Tor Browser

No, they're not the same.
Tor browser gives you ANONYMITY, which is not the same as privacy.
What is Anonymity ? Why is it Important ? http://blog.nowherejezfoltodf4jiyl6r56jnzintap5vyjlia7fkirfsnfizflqd.onion/opsec/anonymityexplained/index.html
Why isn't privacy enough for anonymous use?

(BTW stock Firefox is not even private at all)
"Again" haha

Tor is still alive and well I promise

That's not quite true, although technically in this case you would be pseudononymous.
You can use Lemmy at opsec level 4-5:

On graphene you can also install always-on orbot/invizible in a seperate profile or private space and use apps like Voyager
Note: some instances like.world block tor users.
dbzer0, Lem.ee, and mander.xyz I know are cool with it

You are being fingerprinted..
Step 0 is using a different IP not tied to your previous activity
Making anonymous reddit accounts is not hard, although you're better off here anyway

I don't, I use public WiFi and plan more. I use open street maps offline and have music etc. Saved locally
It seemed daunting at first but now it's just a way of life for me

Anyone know if it's possible to view this feed in voyager?
Thanks
A revolution without guns?
I had the same thing happen (50501.chat) I answered all their questions and got denied.
Considering their situation it's an odd behavior
I've made tons of Lemmy accounts with no issue on different instances
