Directories

Tools

  • Proton Mail (and other services) - privacy friendly mail service with cloud/password manager and VPN. Base from Switzerland
  • Plausible Analytics - the analytics software used on those pages. To be frank, I don't really need it but pay/support them nevertheless. Hosted in EU
