Created our own systems by Polish programmers that make it possible to hold encrypted messages and calls in HD standard. Whole communication via Usecrypt Messenger is secured with end‑to‑end encryption with all cryptographic operations made on user’s device. No backup no logs, ever no recovery. You can not transfer your history from one smartphone to another.
Usecrypt Messenger is checking phone OS is has been hacker by known malware or even spyware Pegasus, because its use own encryption not the Phone OS.
Israel’s government recommended using in its own internal officials. Spyware Pegasus was created by Israel’s intelligence community so…
Downsides
Well need phone number to register

I wanna share with you the system I’ve been testing for some time now and its awesome.
It’s Kodachi 7.4 The Secure OS.

Linux Kodachi operating system is based on Xubuntu 18.04.5 it will provide you with a secure, anti-forensic, and anonymous operating system considering all features that a person who is concerned about privacy would need to have in order to be secure.

Kodachi is very easy to use all you have to do is boot it up on your PC via USB drive then you should have a fully running operating system with established VPN connection Tor Connection established DNS crypt service running. No setup or Linux knowledge is required from your side its all been automated for you. The entire OS is functional from your temporary memory RAM so once you shut it down no trace is left behind all your activities are wiped out.

Kodachi is a live operating system that you can start on almost any computer from a DVD, USB stick, or SD card. It aims at preserving your privacy and anonymity, and helps you to:

Use the Internet anonymously.
All connections to the Internet are forced to go through the VPN then Tor network with DNS encryption.
Leave no trace on the computer you are using unless you ask it explicitly.
Use state-of-the-art cryptographic and privacy tools to encrypt your files, emails and instant messaging.

Some features:
Onion Circuits/Onion share
Random Mac Generator
RAM Wiping
Built in secure Web Browser (I prefer Tor Browser)
Built-In VPNs from different providers your own if you wish
i2p,GNUNET
Mymonero, Electrom BTC wallet
DNS Crypt, with many other dns options
Multi Tor exit node changer with eye country exclude feature
Multi DNS options – Love this option ! Works Great with Tor Browser
Stacer linux tuner
Rkhunter/Nuke os or device
Sync thing/Session messenger/Stegehide-GUI
Wipe Ram/Wipe Free Space/USB Guard/USB Kill/Kill and Nuke OS!
Bleach bit/Nautilus-wipe/KeepassXC/Seahorse/Gpa/Gnupg2/Enigmail/ufw/gufw/fire jail
Geany/Meld/Shutter/Flotilla/Audicity/Terminator/Transmission, Mat
Htop/Rdesktop/Gksu/Nadu/Xtrlock/Nmap/McManus/Cairo-dock/Geoip-bin/MPV/Iridium-browser/tenta
Disper/Smbclient/Syslinux-utils/Fcitx/Ibus/Pidgin-Otr/ Coyim/wire/Bettergram/noisy/Element/Demon saw
Zulu crypt/Zulu mount/Signal/SiriKali/Deny hosts/Steghide/GnomeNettool/Resolver/OpenS hot
System and Security Info on Desktop with Panic room unique tools

Especially Zulu crypt simple, lightweight feature rich and powerful solution for hard drives encryption is my favourite can work with True crypt, Vera crypt containers. Linux Only !
Plus Tor Exit Node Script allow you to choose the county of Exit node. You can exclude Five Eyes, Nine Eyes, 14 Eyes Counties.

What do You think about it ?
Wait for comments.

PS. One of my the precisions is to use multiple layers of encryption (Tor !). So In Zulu (or VeraCrypt/TrueCrypt) container
I keep sensitive file encrypt another layer like GPG for example.

Thanks.. I basically use Hushmail and web browser Tor. And I have one more tool not from your list,, for single files security I downloaded free encryption software Nordlocker (https://nordlocker.com), that is very easy to use

I like Brave as a second browser, but if Libre Browser turns out to be decent, I could be tempted to move on.

On your Media Converters section, consider pandoc – it’s a great document format converter.

E.g. over the Amazon wishlist. Perhaps to your cloud services section, where is also Bitwarden listed.

Otherways a few comments other topics.

I have been using also Elementary in several laptops. Installed it to mine and my children’s from usb stick. No problems with drivers. My biggest issue with Elementary is that they don’t offer a path from one version to other, but you will need to make the installation again.

Wire is recommended in many places, but I find that a bit strange as the person behind the project doesn’t have so good record.

It seems they are still operating out of Australia = see this article

FastMail announced that it had split from the Norwegian firm Opera Software ASA and became a privately held independent company after its staff purchased the company back

The main servers are located in New York City and Amsterdam.

Is this no longer the case?
