Wonder if they will make EU-only variant of hardware and software which will be like totally different phone. They already did sideloading, USB-C and now this. What next?

It supported torrent for ages, but it has only one tracker that doesn't really have very much content. Now qBitTorrent or something else supports it out of the box.

I2P is very slow, slower than Tor. Maybe after more people join, it will be faster. Last time I tried it was painfully slow to even load most eepsites.

Internal investigation? They didn't know they set up 19 mln of not accounts? Or maybe someone did it for them?

Only real threats of Threads federation are EEE and server overload. Not the people from there or privacy. If someone wants to see some content you don't want to see, like some opinion you don't like, they should be able to see it. I don't understand why there would be such list, it would be pure censorship and waste of time. I have heard Threads has a pretty good moderation, so that solves this problem anyway.

I don't get what would defederating with Facebook-federated instances gives you, though.

If there's no such thing as authentication when you view posts, you have no privacy anyway. Everything you post online can be seen by anyone and archived anytime. It's not like you have privacy when you post now.

What does it give you even do except for cool image below the post? I never got why people bought those coins. Does it even give karma for the author?

I was using Flatpak and Toolbx exclusively until I discovered Nix. It's much better than using those two.

Nothing. Everything your instance has is your IP address (mostly useless) and password hash (also mostly useless). Everything you have here is public. Maybe except your settings, like light/dark mode.

If you don't buy no-name brand phones, you will get at least one major update. Even chinese brands such as xiaomi will provide updates. You can also install generic LineageOS image if your phone can be unlocked some way, official or not. It works on most devices.

But many smart TVs become useless very quick. When I was using 2015 phone in 2020, TV newer than that already loaded the lightweight Google version for unsupported browsers and vast majority sites/apps became unavailable. It used browser that was already 2 years old when it was released and never released an update to it. But when there was root vulnerability, they released a fix after long time of being basically unsupported.

I use them constantly on laptop with GNOME. It makes it easier to switch windows with touchpad. On desktop I don't use them so often, because I forget about them.

Enough people are used to the proprietary apps, so it doesn't matter for them. 0,01% of users flowing to other protocols for just part of their conversations isn't going to hurt them.

But you know, it's literally #1 on the charts and it has AI. I must try it!

I use Gitea as project hosting and personal wiki. I also host Nextcloud for files and news and Jellyfin for movies and music.

In this order.

Wait, you didn't post this comment with 3.1? All the cool people use it bro

Depends on your usage, if you use only flatpak, fedora silverblue would be perfect. If you want to manage multiple computers or you're customizing it, switch to nixos and you won't look back.

But both are different than traditional distros, especially nix. If you already are advanced user of linux, you'd have problems with anything more than installing apps on nix for first time.

You can also use LibRedirect addon to redirect Reddit/Twitter/etc automatically to alternative frontends.

On kbin it counts as two upvotes to the reputation points and it shows the posts you boosted on your profile. Dunno about Lemmy.

On lineageos also just pegasus. Only thing that makes it better than stock android is that you have more chances for security patches. Dumno about graphene, it has some additional protections, but still susceptible to some vulnerabilities of android.

What's the difference between this and the site shortcut?

@lemonh3ad We need to check it out. Probably problems with posts getting to hot. Would be funny if they disabled votes just because of this.

I'm still using Magisk on LOS 20. Banking app works flawlessly and SafetyNet passes, at least on microg.

You just need to install this module instead of using magiskhide now: https://github.com/kdrag0n/safetynet-fix

It requires too much fuckery to really do it on RPi. But on x86, it's the most reliable distro I tried. You can even switch stable/unstable branches without running into issues.

Theoretically there's "no hate speech" in the rules, but I haven't seen anyone getting banned for that. You'd need to find out yourself what's their definition of this word.

newzit.com for international news, Polsat News for Polish/sport news and Slashdot for tech news. I add them to RSS whenever possible.

Do you mean Lemmy subs? Then both on Lemmy and kbin you have RSS icon on sub pages.

You have also other privately run instances, you can check the list on Github or somewhere else

From what I understand, yes. It even says it works on Wine, but I can't test on neither right now.

Add also randomization of the instance, in case the main one is down and for privacy. There's already libredirect addon which does that, but still cool.

Thanks

@hyperspace You have the icon on the right of the header bar. It shows a bullet list. Hover it and click "Subscribed".

Most of them aren't profitable, especially twitter and reddit. YouTube is also doing it now, they're going after adblocks. They even threatened invidious recently.

But tbh discord change is for good. It's easier to invite someone, especially if they have special chars in nickname.

I think they're encrypted by default now. But check whether you have "encryption enabled" in your message log.

And if you want to chat with family or friends, check out Session. It's more user-friendly and more secure.

How else manage resources? You want everybody to be equally poor, like under communism? Maybe except the ruling party. You have no alternative.
