Nice, looks like LEAP released a new beta version of their Riseup VPN snap yesterday: https://snapcraft.io/riseup-vpn

If you are concerned with #zoom''s acquisition of #keybase, knowing zooms bad track of dealing with privacy, you have good reasons to do.
If you choose to delete your keybase, account and you’ve got some #stellar coins left inside that you prefer to gift away instead of deleting or knowing it will be for zooms profit, know that we do have a stellar address you can donate to.

Covid-19 / NHS Contact Tracing App
The NHS Contact tracing Client App (not the server) source code is now available.
It would be nice to see if someone can build it and compare to the binaries, is that possible?
MIT licenses so I suppose someone could build it on the Apple / Google decentralised framework.

Looking for a good social proof solution following Keybase's acquisition this morning? Check out @wiktor's decentralized solution built on PGP! https://metacode.biz/openpgp/proofs I'm setting my key up now 😄
Centralised apps have a crucial flaw. Zoom just purchased Keybase rendering it unsafe IMO.

Today Zoom acquired Keybase. It came as a shock to me at first; but, it shouldn't surprise us.

The difference between Git and GitHub?
Well... Git is to GitHub what porn is to PornHub.
