Flatpak weakens the security/isolation of Librewolf (and any browser). Since you are in Linux, you might as well use the distro repo, which will update whenever you update.

Cus there isnt a reason to change if you are already super familiar with pfSense. They basically do the same stuff.

What extensions do you use? What browser do you use? The only thing a VPN helps with is hiding your IP. If you dont use a good privacy browser like Mullvad/Librewolf or Cromite, you are still easily trackable regardless of VPN.

The only extension I recommend for privacy and security is uBlock Origin. There are some other good extensions but none that are as significant. More extensions can actually increase your trackability, aka browser fingerprinting.

If you use the adblocker uBlock Origin, enable these filter lists which strips URL tracking parameters.

In that case OPNsense does the exact same thing but with a more intuative GUI. It originally was a fork of pfSense.

That is usually referred to as "source available" and doesnt fall into the category of open source.

It can do a lot, for example some people use it as a PDF editor.

The Signal server is centralized, but it is also still open source under the AGPL license: https://github.com/signalapp/Signal-Server

What is stopping a CPU manufacturer from close-sourcing part/most of their CPU built on RISC-V. Even if the CPU is fully open, backdoors can be hidden in plain sight with clever design. And beyond the CPU, other components in our PC will remain closed. A new ISA isnt going to fix the systematic problems of capitalism or facism, where the corporations can exist and act without really feeling with any consequences. We must find a way to hold them accountable.
