Yes please! I have nothing against Lemmygrad, but I also don't want them to overwhelm everything else from my All feed. Please let us block entire instances, not just communities.
You can care about privacy, or you can ask a phone number during sign up. Those things are mutually exclusive.
Don't use Signal you care about privacy.
I had to reread this multiple times. I didn't expect OnlyFans to call people terrorists :)
This is a typical LeopardsAteMyFace moment. Democrats spent years to kill online privacy and to get tech giants to act like online cops.
This abortion issue might finally convince the Democratic party about the value of privacy.
A few months ago it was a war crime to criticise Ukraine in any way. Now Amnesty publishes this. The tide is turning. It looks like inflation has scared West and they are about to betray and abandon Ukraine.
I'm impressed by Lenovo's commitment to Linux.
Valve has announced that they've sorted out various issues with their Steam Deck supply chain, so they will get through reservations much faster than expected now.
From what understand GCC supports more architectures than LLVM.
Also having alternatives is always nice.
• New OSM data as of July 18 • Fixed/updated API (see omaps.app/api) • Fixed invisible paths/trails on some Huawei devices • Added missing shop types from top OSM tags • Minor routing improvement •...
Tanks are useless if you don't have air superiority. They will just get blown up. Same with artillery. You can't go on the offensive without controlling the skies.
Ukraine's only real advantage is the Bayraktar drone.
The longer this war lasts, more Ukrainians will die and more territory Ukraine will lose. A ceasefire is in Ukraine's interest.
Der Weg für Getreideexporte über das Schwarze Meer ist wieder frei: Die Ukraine und Russland unterzeichneten entsprechende Abkommen in Istanbul - ohne sich zu begegnen. Denn die Gräben sind nach wie vor tief. Von Uwe Lueb.
Laut Tagesschau lobt UN-Generalsekretär Guterres Engagement der Türkei
What app do you use or recommend for sharing you location with family and friends? Google Maps can do this, but I'm looking for a non-Google option. Something in the OpenStreetMaps space would be the best. Telegram can also do it, but Telegram's feature is more optimized for short-term sharing, not continuous sharing.
Die Europäische Zentralbank erhöht angesichts der Rekordinflation erstmals seit elf Jahren die Zinsen im Euroraum. Der Leitzins steigt unerwartet kräftig von Null auf 0,50 Prozent, der Negativzins für geparkte Gelder entfällt.
Any reason why Zelensky is purging these people? They are not in the military, so the Russian advance can hardly be blamed on them.
GPD, the company behind many portable devices like the upcoming GPD WIN Max 2, made a claim about cooperating with Valve to get SteamOS working on their hardware.
It would be a huge win for Linux and open source if GPD ditches Windows.
We actually don't know what WhatsApp is doing. It's a closed source app, so there is nothing preventing Facebook from getting your keys and reading your chats. It just takes one national security letter to force them.
Telegram wins because it's usable by non-techies. And has open source clients. And has a decent Linux client. It's preferable to chatting over Instagram.
Of course it does. It just doesn't have E2E encryption by default (you can turn it on with secret chats). If the alternative is messaging on Instagram, Facebook Messenger or WhatzApp, then Telegram is superiour.
I don't think Signal is much easier than Matrix. This is why I'm so excited about Telegram. Telegram's an easy to use and feature rich chat app that also has open source clients and decent Linux support. It's great for using with non-techie friends. Matrix is great for using with techie friends. Signal is somewhere in between, and doesn't really fullfill either role.
We're so excited to announce that Video Rooms is entering beta in Element, just as a new Room Search is exiting beta!
Matrix is an open-source standard for decentralized communication. It is constantly evolving to the requirements of modern solutions keeping in mind the privacy of users. You will find Matrix clients as a replacement for Slack, Microsoft Teams, and several other popular communication platforms....
Not sure why Signal gets all the attention when Matrix is much more successful at spreading open source messaging and is also decentralized.
