Feel free to hit me up on matrix.
free software doesn’t necessarily mean federating with other services.
They have stated their reasons why they don’t wanna do it. You might disagree with them or not. But the technology they built is still open. Anybody could take what they created and use it as a foundation that does federate.
Ieft leaning? These orgs sound more like the typical liberal right centrist orgs from america lol
You just measure the time until the delivery recipe arrives. You can approximate how far away the recipient is. Now you keep doing that while changing your own location (use vpns etc.) and you can slowly get a more accurate location of the target. Now you automate that stuff and also utilize machine learning to interpret the data.
This type of attack theoretically also works with signal or telegram or whatever message service that works entirely without a phone number.
Would highly suggest you to stay away from Matrix and Element for now when it comes to using it with non techies. It‘s simply not there yet. It‘s slow, tedious to use, buggy and the ux is just bad. It‘s also not necessarily more private than the popular choices if used improperly which is imo very likely it you have your aunt use it lol.
Is there any feature of element that you need or why did you pick it? You could ideally just use Signal for group chat and group (video-) calls. Or even whatsapp.
No. It‘s the opposite of a new world order.
It‘s the old order doing everything to preserve its power.
Why would you use first party messaging apps? Who the hell still sends sms? Just use signal. Easy fix.
High quality plastic bodies are so good. Hard to break and easy to repair. I hate glass bodies.
What do you mean by built in?
Built in to the protocol? Built in to the application?
There is a couple of XMPP clients that implement omemo and/or otr encryption.
Matrix supports encryption on a protocol level. But it‘s relatively flawed.
Die apple notizen app kann doch geteilte notizen 🤔
Tja. Dann hätte ich auch bei reddit bleiben können. 🤷🏼
Ich glaub ich mach mir demnächst einfach eine eigene instanz nur für mich alleine die nix blockt. Da logg ich mich dann einfach alle paar tage mal ein, um den ungefilterten wahnsinn ins gesicht geweht zu bekommen haha
Essenziell: brave blockt werbung und schaltet dort seine eigene werbung. Nimmt also den webseiten betreibern die werbeeinnahmen weg um die eigene Werbung zu schalten. Das ist ein Verhalten was sinst gewisse Malware an den Tag legt und völlig inakzeptabel. Es gab auch andere Fälle wo irgendwie affiliate links ohne nutzereingabe eingefügt werden was ein schwerer eingriff in die Privatsphäre sein kann.
Außerdem ist der Chef von Brave ein homophober #%§&. Ob dich das stört, musst du wissen.
Würde ganz dringend von allem was mit brave zu tun hat abraten. Schäbige Geschäftspraktiken treffen auf schäbige Ideologien vonschäbigen Führungskräften.
I’m currently running Mint on my Computer and Ubuntu on servers.
At least on my instance everything is running fast, snappy. I like the clean interface. Haven’t encountered any major bugs yet.
The only downside for me so far is that there is not a lot to see yet. The only active posts and communities are about lemmy itself. Which is understandable of course but I can’t wait to actually get to the phase where I actually get to experience real content lmao
Yes and no.
let’s say I have a website that hosts user generated content like a forum or something. Some other person just hosts a mirror of my website that is not under my control. If some user requests me to delete his data, I can do that. i cannot delete the data from the mirror site.
Nothing else is happening in the fediverse. The only difference is, that in the fediverse the license and technology is set up to encourage mirroring content.
