As a replacement for SMS with people you know and share phone number with though, it’s sufficient.

RSS is a format for data (often served over HTTPS), not a protocol. I don’t really understand comparing a data format to a federated communication protocol.

Besides what SudoDnfDashY said, I’m sure it really depends on why you hate your country. Or put another way, how much your country hates you. I don’t like the United States, but I’m not in any danger here. I also don’t assume that any country I choose is going to be thrilled to have me.

I respect his decision, but I don’t understand it honestly. A lot of worrying about bad reviews? Or if it’s pulled from the play store, worry about losing users? Why is that even a concern? Oh well. If he doesn’t want to work on it anymore that’s all the justification he needs.

I had no idea this was in the works, but I’m very happy to hear it. I love Thunderbird.

Exactly, people fleeing twitter will find something that is definitely not twitter and they will bounce.

A very small percentage of that number will stay and be active.

That’s down to a lack of class consciousness, right? When you are blinded to class then all you have are these social grievances against a hegemonic liberal, and in the case of Twitter specifically, (D)emocratic, dogma. To these people, just annoying liberals is subversion. Just annoying liberals is enough to elect Donald Trump, and I’m pretty sure it will be enough to do far worse.

It will be interesting to watch this play out. I’ve heard people say that the board could be sued if they refuse the offer because they would be turning down a payout for investors. On the other hand, if we take Musk at face value and believe that his goal is to reduce censorship, I think the board could argue that less censorship = less advertising = less revenue long term.

As for me, whatever happens I hope it sucks enough to shake Twitter as an institution of elite discourse. I don’t expect that to happen, though.

The virgin sex-havers lose again! 😎

Last I checked is still the recommended way to install the LetsEncrypt certbot, though these days I tend to have that happen within containers anyway.

Nope

Yes

I think NewPipe is just reading the youtube.com website, and it’s not derived from the youtube app (like Vanced was) nor is it using any Youtube trademarks. It will probably be fine.

There’s speculation that google dropped the hammer on Vanced because they recently announced a Vanced NFT, but I I’m not sure about that. Maybe?

The first five words of the title

Any OS I use is not secure because I am very dangerous

Discovery, like with all fediverse software, probably isn’t going to be very robust if present at all.

It’s only going to grow in the future, probably to the point where eventually Linux will become the main platform.

I would argue that the only reason we’re even having this conversation is that it seems like a possibility that Linux could become a mainstream gaming platform. Maybe not even likely, but possible- and that’s largely thanks to Valve pushing for platform independence and flexibility.

Is that really what they said? A little while ago I read that it was because many of the options in there didn’t work on Firefox Mobile to begin with.
