I've delayed making the transition to a fully "secure" set up until upgrading my PC and moving to a Linux distro from windows. now that that is happening and my parts are in the mail, what does the Lemmy community recommend for my personal network data to remain as eyes free as possible from potential hostile gov & non gov entities?

For context, I have 2 years of Ubuntu experience on a non daily driver laptop, recently acquired a CCNA, and have a deeply seated hatred & paranoia of being spied on. I have many hours of security content bookmarked, but am curious to hear the Lemming communities recommendations. I am currently studying for my AWS cloud practitioner cert, then Linux+, then my CCNP.

TLDR me Lemmy 🤣

Graphene is awesome, super easy to install with their web tool.

For 2FA if you're still using G00gle's there is no way to export to try and keep you locked in. Go ahead and start switching all your stuff over to Aegis now (my recommendation, or another that's on fdroid and allows exports) and then you literally just export the file to your secure backup (I use filen) and then import on your new graphene install. Super easy. This allows you to keep manual backups as you please as well.

luckily I'm not using google but all this sounds very promising. I might try it out this weekend!
