I was just nodding along, reading your post thinking, yup, agreed. Until I saw there was a PR to fix it that signal ignored, that seems odd and there must be some mitigating circumstances on why they haven’t merged it.
Otherwise that’s just inexcusable.
That’s perfectly fine for some things, but for most people letting their browser choice dictate what sites they use is backwards
Did you forget the ./s or something? Lemmy itself is developed on GitHub, as are plenty of other “valuable” open source projects. To pretend nothing of value is built there is putting your head in the sand.
If you’re developing software on GitHub you have a chance at getting some useful feedback, bug reports and maybe even PRs. Like it or not, the network effect is real.
Proton drive has windows and Android clients that work well. I’d love a Linux client for drive and for them to fix the photo upload issue on android, but eventually those things will come.
Or maybe the 512kb.club a more reasonable balance between 250 club and the 1mb club.
Also with a view: jankfree.org for a similar focus on performance.
Yes. You can. I have a personal site that is using nuxt static site mode and it renders extremely fast and clean output.
Check out https://250kb.club all performance sites focused on speed and small size.
Seems the second group is a vocal minority. This feature helps the first group, but doesn’t help the second group.
According to Signal, the first group is the larger group and this helps the most users of Signal.
Could it be better? Sure. This is still a good step in terms of privacy, even though it doesn’t really improve anonymity.
While it is an electron app, it’s a pretty decent one. Because it’s not full of tracking and other crap it’s pretty responsive.
Their web and mobile apps are pretty good. Its definitely not as polished as gsuite or office, but it’s still good and you are the customer not the product.
Delayed start, but from your phone, via their totally-not-tracking-infested app. That’s why it needs wifi.
Not sure if I need the /s but here it is just to be sure.
I don’t see the problem with that. Looks like it just shows a corporate logo if they’ve passed dmarc verification.
Seems like a nice feature.
That’s true, but once you trust a new device, there’s no reason the authority (your phone that has all history) couldn’t transfer the history over to the new client.
I get it would add some complexity, but it could be done in a secure and private way.
Article removed because it doesn’t meet their editorial standards.
It shifts from the isp to the VPN provider, who isn’t doing that profiling yet.
If it were that easy, someone would have done it already.
Pidgin and Trillian were both fantastic stable solutions back then, and it’s be real fucking nice to have that today, but everyone’s got their hand out to steal your data and offer you free services for the trouble and they don’t want to share.
I see what you did there.
Is that because of the extension marketplace? Or the fact that the debugger has always been closed source?
That’s exactly what happened to me too. It was in the background until something disrupted my status quo and then there was no looking back.
Its a fair point, and definitely worth pointing out. They aren’t as bad as the others in that very specific way, which is commendable for now while it suits them. The moment they can make more money by selling vs. holding your data, I have no doubts they will pivot.
