Did you give it a try recently?
- Germany (I think)
- Politically leftist
- Very nice people
- User experience 8, works fine and people put a lot of effort in
- It's free, but you need an invite code
Source? And fyi, if you use Signal you are generating your own encryption keys. Your private keys are generated on your phone and stay on it. So what gives you the idea that
the US government has all the keys
?? Sounds a lot like a conspiracy theory
Ah nice, I didn't know that was possible
True! But then Simplex / Signal are no real alternatives to Telegram, are they?
I'll give it a try, thanks!
I already use an ad blocking DNS, but that's not how they distribute ads, sadly
Which one? There's three in my post. And I do use an ad blocking DNS, but this can't block message-like ads from Telegram. Otherwise it would have to somehow read the encrypted message content...
I know! But I don't really have a choice currently; which app would you suggest for tickers / info channels? Mastodon would be an option, but it's not quite the same. Abd I'd first have to convince everyone to use it :/
I use telegram mainly for info channels and tickers. To my knowledge that's not possible in Signal, because you can't restrict participants to be read-only (right?)
Sometimes I almost forget how fucked up JKR actually is
The Cloudflare Poison
Can you give a source on the Hetzner claim? I'm curious and didn't find anything online
This is quite centered around hetero dudes, which I find sad.
FlorisBoard (at least the beta) is getting there (swiped on FlorisBoard), though it's not quite there yet
Can't relate. It's not harder to get your hands on a matrix account in comparison to a mail account. And for those that want it even easier, just download Element and you are guided through the default registration at matrix.org
Why not use VIM though?
I mean, you could also just self-host 🤷
Nah, I like my VIM keys
