Title says it all. I'll go first:

I don't really have any on my computer (all I use that for is Vim, Firefox, and Git), but on my phone: Orbot (basically Tor as a VPN on your phone).

What's the difference between Orbit and Tor Browser? I always wondered why people download Orbot instead of Tor Browser?

[-] hai@lemmy.ml 4 points 1 year ago

Orbit acts as a VPN and effects the entire system, so all of your apps get routed through ToR.

I sometimes use this one called InviZible Pro on F-Droid. Have you ever used that? In addition to whole system TOR, it also has Purple I2P and DNSCrypt. Was wondering why one would use one over the other regarding whole system TOR? Just curious.

I've never heard of InviZible, it looks supper cool. Although, I can't really give it a try right now (I'm using an iPhone -- I had a Motorola, but the battery gave out on me a few months? ago and I can't find a good price for a replacement).
