@rzeta0 This always comes down to "what's your threat model." For most people, a cloud-based password manager is the best solution. I use an offline one I manually sync between devices. Pen and paper can be your password manager, but unless you're super human, most people can't come up with sufficiently random and different passwords for their hundreds of sites they have to log in to. I don't use anti-virus, but I also use Linux so it's a slightly different model there too. VPNs protect against a narrow set of threats and for those they are useful. When people treat VPNs like Tor, they're gonna have a bad time.

@hakan_geijer @rzeta0 one thing I’ve been thinking about a lot, pen and paper might actually be a lot less secure when a significant threat is house searches by cops and stuff like that, since you can’t really encrypt it. (But also, paper can’t be hacked, paper doesn’t track your location and stuff)

@enby_of_the_apocalypse @rzeta0 sure but for most people that's not through threat they face. Like one of our parents using that is better than having two passwords they share everywhere.
