JustMarkov,

Because they are not Ubuntu /s

JustMarkov,

Gitlab, Codeberg, Notabug, etc.

Let’s be honest, Signal is not perfect either:

  • It requires your phone number
  • It has had some suspicious funding sources
    (UPD: It was funded by CIA)
    (UPD2: Here I will quote www.securemessagingapps.com:

This matters because “money talks”, as the saying goes. If the company or person behind the money is likely to have reason not to protect customers’ privacy, it’s important to know. This could be indicative of the company not doing as they say (Google, Whatsapp, for example) or changing their mind once they’ve onboarded enough customers from whom they can make money.

(I’m gonna find sources for the last two statements a bit later to not be unsubstantiated)
Done.

Although, we all can agree, that Signal is still better than Telegram, or WhatsApp, or Threema, or whatever.
Still, we probably want to look at the better alternatives, like Simplex or Session.

JustMarkov,

Which lines of its libre software source code are malicious?

It’s not about code, but about funding.

It’s centralised

Yes, and it’s the downside, no matter how you look at it.

JustMarkov, (edited )

That’s not true. A phone number is still required to register, you can just set it not to be public.

Source: I just tried to register and it asked for my phone number.

JustMarkov,

Don’t get me wrong. As far as we know, no malicious code have been funded. The very fact that the Signal was sponsored by the CIA is suspicious (maybe I used some incorrect words, sorry if so). Of course, it’s totally up to you whether you think that fact is sus or not.

JustMarkov,

Yes, it does. And yes, it is equally bad in both cases.

JustMarkov,

No problems for me on NVIDIA laptop after KDE 6.0 has landed. I mean, no problems at all. And I didn’t even get explicit sync yet.

JustMarkov,

Nice

Why can’t you just share direct youtube link? Not everyone uses Invidious, my LibRedirect extension could handle redirection by itself.

Plasma needs stability

Yeah, let’s not mention Gnome breaking every peace of itself every update, along with abandoning APIs and hating QT apps. How can I use a DE, if I can almost certainly be sure that half of my extensions won’t work after another update? Or that all of my QT apps will look weird (if they’ll work at all)?
And I don’t hate Gnome. It’s cool and stuff, but you can’t call it stable, 'cause KDE/XFCE/LXDE/[insert DE name here] will be far more stable than Gnome.

JustMarkov,

Anytype is actually amazing. It has all the opportunities to become the best Notion replacement.

JustMarkov,

Cool, but why’s that all of a sudden?

JustMarkov,

I use it as a secondary email (Proton is primary).
Works great and IMAP support isn’t necessary for me. Also I like Tuta’s UI way more than Gmail’s or Proton’s.

JustMarkov,

This is probably the third time I’ve seen this same post on this community.

JustMarkov,

Nope, they have the exact same headline:
lemmy.world/post/14035634
lemmy.world/post/13888775

JustMarkov,

Welp, maybe I was wrong. Sorry for that. Should’ve checked more cautiously, I suppose

JustMarkov,

Umh… Maybe? I’m not sure about that. I use Thunder, btw

JustMarkov,

I see all the posts, that I linked above

JustMarkov,

You can use it like a VPN service. But note, that AdGuard for Android isn’t OSS

What distro should I use on my potato?

I have an HP Stream 11 that I want to use for word processing and some light web browsing - I’m a writer and it’s a lightweight laptop to bring to the library or coffee shop to write on. Right now it’s got Windows and it’s unusable due to lack of hard drive space for updates. Someone had luck with Xubuntu, but it’s...

JustMarkov,

Imo, using XFCE today (as some people suggested in this thread) is a bad choise, as it is virtually unmaintained, slow and not lightweight at all.
You should be perfectly fine with LXDE or LXQT on top of vanilla Debian

Need a little help for a newbie

Hi, everyone! I’m kinda new at self-hosting, so I need a few tips to get started. Is there any guides that you can recommend for the begginer? My goal is to run a vps with self-hosting tools for daily usage, like Jellyfin, Navidrome, Baïkal, proxy-tool, maybe a Gitea instance etc. I have a domain purchased and basic nginx...

JustMarkov,

I’m already a little familiar with Docker, but I’ll definetly need to get to know it better. Thanks!
