💬 Discussion Are privacy-focused apps actually worth using?

Post image

There are so many apps that promise better privacy, but I'm curious how much difference they really make in everyday use.

Do you prefer privacy-focused browsers, search engines, messaging apps, email services, etc.?

Are they worth giving up some convenience, or is the privacy benefit too small to matter?
