What piece of software are you talking about ?
Azire in particular.
Azire what? They're a Wireguard VPN provider with a web portal.
I guess same confusion as here: https://discuss.tchncs.de/comment/23696262
You give the impression that you are talking about the VPNs when you are actually talking about smartphone apps..?
There is message for those of you in sibling thread!

What isn't free software..?
I think you should make it clear if you are talking about VPN services or client-side apps here. If they provide normal standard protocols like Wireguard and OpenVPN, they can be used without having to install any provider-specific apps.
Regardless of provider it's generally preferred to use third-party software to connect. VPN providers that don't even have their own apps don't qualify as good for you either?
Demanding the whole stack be FLOSS is a bit silly in this context. None of the ones you mentioned open-source most of their backend systems either AFAIK.
I think you should do your homework better before you speak so widely and absolutely dismissively with such claim of authority. It is not helpful.
Food for thought: By consistently following a strategy optimizing and picking the optimal product/service based on cost/benefit, you will end up on the same one as everyone else doing the same thing. From a practical perspective this leads to winner-takes-all and centralization. Whoever is the underdog today becomes the Google or Cloudflare of tomorrow and we're back at square one. From a philosophical perspective, did you really make a choice? Or did "the market" (of which you are also part) decide on your behalf? A healthy market needs at least thousands of mail providers, not 5 or 10.
Obviously same thing goes for basing your pick on brand perception, picking the most popular or recommended one, but without the benefit of knowing you'll actually get the better service.
Can free will exist among economically rational participants in a market? There can be some power in knowing you chose whatever you did based on factors other than cost-performance or popularity. Sometimes the optimal choice can be suboptimal.
And why not self-hosting your inbox? Hard to beat from privacy standpoint. It really doesn't have to be as hard as they say. Even if you don't go full homelab right away: Some providers are accommodating and make it easy to gradually or partially self-host by offering open standard protocols. Others make it really tricky and steer you hard into their app ecosystem. So how straightforward it is to use your own local third-party mail client is a good consideration even if you don't intend to self-host anything else anytime soon.
I prefer my devices without any malware at all but you do you I guess.
you’re data is safe with small hackers

In case it swings your judgement either way, Njalla is run by one of the three Piratebay founders.
Yes let's make sure everyone's on the exact same provider. What could possibly go wrong. "Just use X" bandwagonning is shortsighted and lazy.
That is interesting!
BTW in case you're not aware, direct links to fedia.io like the one you posted just lead to a loginwall so you probably don't want to share those publicly. This one via beehaw.org works for everyone, though: https://beehaw.org/post/24563411
Would be cool to hear how it goes if you do!
Dev here! Thanks for your interest!
Aw. On Artix, it wants to pull in wayland. No thanks.
Hm, I guess you're just running text mode browser on that machine..?
On Arch the wayland package is pulled in as transitive dependency of the gtk3 package. I don't believe it will actually be loaded at runtime. However, I think that gtk3 might not be a hard dependency at all anymore (it used to be for Firefox in the past so this might be a leftover that konform inherited).
If you're comfortable with makepkg I could suggest trying the konform-browser-bin AUR package and simply remove gtk3 as dependency from the PKGBUILD, run makepkg -si and fingers crossed that might work. More details in konform-browser/Arch repo, where contributions are also welcome. If you go the source route, see the note about profiling without wayland.
EDIT: OK I took a look and unless Artix is repackaging some core packages, I don't see a way to make it work on Arch at least: xorg-server depends on libglvnd depends on mesa depends on wayland. Among others. Are you actually able to run an X server at all without having the wayland package installed? Or is thsi for headless use without any graphical environment...? Curious about the use-case! You can also try the binary tarball or just tar -xfing the arch package and invoke the konform binary directly.
Aw. https://gpo.zugaina.org/Search?search=konform no ebuilds on any listed overlays for Gentoo yet.
FWIW, it's not planned at the moment but here's the issue currently tracking Gentoo packaging: https://codeberg.org/konform-browser/source/issues/9

Thanks to Ben Grandes qusal which was very helpful as base for setting things up.
This is a setup optimized for productivity and efficiency, which is reflected in the lack of eye-candy and gratuitous margins.
^1^: Not pictured - I figured the screenshot was busy enough. If y'all want to see more LMK.
Thanks, would be cool to hear how it goes :)
This is probably a good start https://codeberg.org/konform-browser/arch
There's another contributor helping out with arch packaging. Expecting an update shortly there which makes it more idiomatic for arch (fetching and verifying firefox sources directly with makepkg instead of inside the build script). Nothing that we expect to cause any snags for you but just FYI!
