None of the big VPN companies officially endorse use if their services for piracy or any illegal activities for that matter.
But to crack down on it they would have to keep logs on your activity and with that most of their legitimate use cases wouldn’t be valid anymore either.
That is true. But that’d be the case for any online/cloud 2FA service. So you could either have a local 2FA app just for Bitwarden or set up less secure but more convenient email 2FA.
I personally use Bitwarden for my 2FA needs. As others mentioned you can self host the server but personally I have no reason not to trust their SaaS solution, especially now that they offer EU hosted servers. If all you want is a basic authenticator app that does only one thing give FreeOTP a try, it’s made my RedHat. You can then sync the applications state.
But if you on instance.alpha subscribe to a community on instance.beta that would federate the community to your local instance, right? Is there something I’m missing?
I agree. But not everyone likes to do it that way and checking for email in the background should be at least an option in a modern email client in my opinion.
Proton can also be used by other tools like Bottles. It’s very similar to Lutris but with a more general purpose focus, rather than just gaming.
