Interesting and solid config! Thanks for sharing!
How is OperaGX in your daily web surfing?

btw. i'm testing/using Dashlane too and seems solid and reliable PM until now (+1 month using)

No worries with OperaGX 😉
Especially on platforms like Twitch where I had big problems with Firefox slowing down

Update : Switching to Eset

I had a big problem with NordVPN which refused to connect when I used it in my office. (the service was closing).
After elimination, it turned out that F-Secure was crashing the service for a reason I don't know....

I had NordVPN on 2 computers for 3 months. I used f-secure safe 18.1, but I never had any problems at all. Why I went back to another VPN provider, was due to other reasons.

Weird, that's why I said I didn't know the reason :/
In any case, I had this strange problem at home, something I have more on Eset...

Update : Reinstalling F-Secure Safe.
My problem with NordVPN has been solved following an update of NordVPN that took place today.
By the way I still had an active 1 year license from F-Secure, too bad it dies without use ;)
