@krock @MrRawes Ogg Vorbis is even lossier than mp3.

@cuervo Yeah, and piracy can land you in prison or with some hefty fines. Take your pick -- 99p or £120,000.

@hex00fshield 👋

@anonypla On a quick first glance, there are a myriad of factual inaccuracies, but it seems like a fantastic jumping off point for newcomers. Amazing job!

@Blort If you have to use Matrix, I'd say FluffyChat would be your best bet. If you're flexible, though, Signal's the way to go by miles.

@bclindner Ungoogled Chromium ftw

@fribbledom By the way, for anyone reading this -- do not use a textfile.

get everyone to message you on that new account, reverify all of your devices, resign everyone you communicate with, etc. It's a nightmare. Everyone just uses the ever-bloated matrix.org home server anyway. This isn't all to say that I hate Matrix, I use it, I'm just saying don't baselessly attempt to bring down Signal in order to try to get people to use Matrix, the benefits are few and far between and for the general public Matrix is *not* the way to go.
3/3

signup and login with email and password (which people are more likely to use bad passwords, therefore making communications less safe), verify devices, etc. Not even to mention that Matrix leaks significantly more metadata than Signal. Decentralization hardly fixes any problems, too. You can't use a different homeserver on Matrix/Element without making a new account, meaning you have to signup to a new home server, new username and password,
2/3

@codewiz First, the chart you link cherry-picks features that make Element look the most favorable, and is extremely dishonest and deceptive. Second, I wouldn't base my point on usability if I were you -- Signal is download the app, put in your number, and that's essentially it. Element on the other hand, you have to pick a home server, download the client,

@fluff I believe Steam is 64 bit, it just requires many 32-bit drivers and dependencies for games and proton to work effectively.

@techlore The video lacks context and spreads false and harmful information about Graphene, and unrightfully so. Sure, the owner's imperfect, but so is the pathological liar that runs CopperHead or the unreasonable snake that runs Calyx. Stop spreading FUD to your easily influenced fans.

@weltsnake MobileCoin is a bad choice though.

@weltsnake This is actually great. Think about it, why did Apple put it in iMessage? Friends to friends and parents to children (primarily). With the new influx of users, there are a lot more of these two groups, and it brings Signal to a market in which is dominated by Apple. It just makes itself a more viable app for people to use as their main and only, and personally I think it's a fantastic move on their part.

The PinePhone is a project with so much potential. It has such a fantastic idea, entirely squandered by lackluster OS implementation and archaic specifications. It's really disappointing.

@amdac Weird. Tested more myself and did some research online, I've seen tons of people saying that reCaptchas work on QuteBrowser, so I don't know what the deal is with that.

@amdac Just installed QuteBrowser and reCaptchas work OOTB for me. Do captchas work on other browsers for you?

@amdac What browser is that? I can't think of any browser outside of maybe base Madori that wouldn't support captchas. I think even Madori can be made to work.

@amdac Limited browser support? I hate reCaptcha and Captchas in general as much as the next person, but I have literally never heard of a browser not supporting it.

@zens I'm all for giving more choice for tracking and alerts, but the way you just use 9/11 as a hardly substantiated point to go against notifications is so disgusting. Getting a notification that Tescos has tweeted does not kill people and is in no way even a bit similar to what happened in 9/11. Have some fucking respect.
