  • Exactly. There's no reason for them to support Bitcoin over Monero in their wallet if they care about privacy. Also, bitcoin can be used for paying for their subscriptions but not monero.

    Their reason is just so that crypto bros get interested in it and other people who are still under the assumption that bitcoin is the most private and secure.

    This has been ignored by Proton for over 6 years now. And it has like 2800 votes.

    This is a pretty big red flag for a privacy company.

  • I want forgejo for its upcoming federation feature tbh.

  • Im thinking of self hosting Forgejo one day.

  • How did you get from Proton to Nestle? I am here to discuss privacy and tech, not food.

  • This is the same "private" company which has been ignoring over 2000+ people's votes for Monero support. It's ironic how they are now making a cryptocurrency wallet for bitcoin.

  • I suggest using Mullvad VPN as it is much more private and secure and has a fully functioning stable linux client.

  • Nostr communities were calling it a honeypot (even though all they talk about everyday is cryptocurrencies). I am also calling it a honeypot. Also, if they care about privacy, why not make Proton Wallet compatible with Monero? This is why I left Protonmail after one year of using it. They are the shittiest privacy company ever. They only seem like they care about privacy, but I know they aren't. I mean, any privacy focused company that has that "Hot now" or "Best seller" etc. thing on their pricing page can't be trusted. I switched to Posteo since their privacy policy and website seem to be much much better than what Protonmail's ever could be. They don't even support POP3, fortunately Posteo does. Proton was redirecting Tor users from their .onion domains to clear net domains a few years ago and even then they were requiring a SMS verification just because you were using Tor. How "private" of them.

    People on Lemmy really should start realizing this about Proton but some are just stubborn.

  • I understand you. Zed does give me some headaches sometimes but I mean it's still pretty alpha. Maybe I'll switch back to vscodium until zed becomes more mature after all. Though they never said it was an IDE so I don't expect for it to be ever feature rich as vscodium.

  • Oh well, then I'll invent the word lukecool and now everything is okay.

  • Because cool is pretty much the equivalent of lukewarm word for cold

  • The thing you call "Image ID" (for whatever reason) is actually called "alt text"

  • "I swear I am not schizophrenic! The knife really whispers into my ears at night!!! It's all because we live in a simulation set by the government to regulate our bodies and take away our freedom🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲! Do you understand, peasant!?"

  • I switched to Zed recently. Very basic and definitely is not as feature rich as VSCodium but I'm sure it'll get better.

  • Some useful files I might need someday (of course encrypted), bootable linux rescue distro and of course tailsos just in case.

  • I see the embodiment of a group of people that "like" freedom.
