What are the coolest (privacy respecting) apps you have? - eviltoast

Title says it all. I’ll go first:

I don’t really have any on my computer (all I use that for is Vim, Firefox, and Git), but on my phone: Orbot (basically Tor as a VPN on your phone).

      I’m not sure, because I don’t really know, what Find My can do (I think it’s an Apple app, right?) What you can do with KDE Connect is make your phone ring to locate it. You can’t access the phones location. I hope that was remotely helpful.

      Sadly not as AFAIK you need to be connected to the same network as the device (at least on iOS)

      You can make your phone ring, but connect works over wifi, you have to be on the same LAN for the connection between devices to work.
