@remington was about time. Thankfully, no one died despite the far right triad’s efforts (AUR, SOS and POT parties) to slow things down. Fuck Russian aggression and Putler in particular.

@remington The way it should be

It was unreliable on my potato computer and with the speeds of back then for me, but I remember that pretty much all of my friends used it. I had to use my mum’s computer to join in lol.

Well, you can easily tell if an envelope has been tampered with. For email, on the other hand, it’s more difficult for the average folk. And again, Gmail is also sharing information with the government (okay, it’s mostly the US government, but still).

Imo, we need more providers like Proton, Tuta, Mailbox dot org etc. and probably more education into how one could protect their data and so on.

I think they do provide torrents for the stuff they have available to download already. So we know what to do *wink*!

Having the government provide email as a public communication service sounds good in theory. However, this could also pose a privacy risk if your government turns rogue and authoritarian. If it is possible to also have this communication E2E encrypted in a way that is as frictionless as possible (no, PGP is not really that frictionless unless it’s built in), it would be great. However, we all know what is the general take of governments regarding E2E encryption, so I think I’ll pass this one.

*sigh* I was woried

Jokes aside, I am quite afraid though.

Damn, only the 2nd? There’s room for improvement /s

@jagged_circle You don’t install a Bluesky instance, rather you host your own PDS, or your own web client, or the feed part. It’s all a mess and the latter has very high system requirements for one to self-host from what I understood. Basically, it’s impossible if you’re not a company with the willing and the money to do it.

If decentralization actually happens on Bluesky, it will be more confusing for the average person than with something like Mastodon.

@remington

@remington Gee, I wonder which nazi politician is on that list again. Place your bids before you dig in! 😁

@PerfectDark Nonsense is my cup of tea when I get bored, so it’s a perfect fit for me, haha.

Friendica is also cool, do check it out when you can. Once you’ll get the hang of it, you’ll love it 😁

@PerfectDark This is a fantastic series of posts. Highly informative and really fun to read and follow through. Your Mastodon also seems like a hidden gem, with lots of cool stuff. Just gave you a follow from Friendica 😁

Keep it up! 👍

@remington All I hope for the world after this is to get its shit together and form some world trade system with as little US as possible in it (no offense to you or anyone living in the US); or that the next presidents will realize what shitshow this makes

@intellectualcuriosity Ah, a fellow TNR enjoyer just spotted on the Fedi. Sal’tare!

@coldsideofyourpillow No worries, thank you!

for Windows 10

Thank God. I was afraid because I use OneNote for work.

@ForgottenFlux such a great feature. Will definitely use it next time I’m bombing some Houthi rebels.

@SmokeyDope thank you!
