  • or that some part of the encryption, like key handling is flawed. also, considering they have an RCE vulnerability every year, I wouldn’t be surprised if the encryption keys could just be stolen remotely.

    we also don’t know if facebook has implemented some kind of analytics for message content, sent files and media.



  • well that section has a few not so effective services, like authy, and imo brave and adblock, to depict what people believe at that point. and telegram probably gets to be there because it’s not the usual big tech companies, and it seems fine, even if unencrypted.

    Only 1:1 chats may be encrypted as an opt-in.

    and only on the phone app


  • others have mentioned microG, but if that does not answer your question it may help to concretize what services you need from the google services stack. this page has a table on what services did the microG project implement so far, it may help in deciding on what exact services do you need

    for push notifications I recommend ntfy or another UnifiedPush-based solution, but be aware that ntfy’s official instance but probably the mozilla instance too is being hosted in the USA. if that’s a problem, the ntfy app let’s you set a custom ntfy server (find a public one or host it yourself), and all apps should handle it without difficulties which register at the Ntfy app after you made this change.
    with UnifiedPush, there’s no central point of failure like with google firebase, all services get told where to send the notifications, and that is determined by the “UnifiedPush Distributor” app on your phone (of which the Ntfy app is an implementation, along with SunUp and NextPush, they are also distributors)


  • would it be possible to repost it elsewhere? maybe not even to lemmy, but to some markdown compatible paste service, and it could be linked in the footnote of another post of yours, or something like that. if the instance admin gets upset over that, we really should just remove us from their control.
    Recently I read that many are now blocking lemmy.ml communities anyway to strip away the admins’ influence




  • Tl;Dr: eche|off remembers zlatin and sends him away even before he could have wrote any hateful thoughts. then zlatinb introduces himself and shows his hate towards everyone not a straight white male. then also sends messages that are just otherwise weird, and basically speaks with himself, like an insane abuser does at his ex’s house right after a breakup. and channel members just handle him accordingly, by not responding to him and waiting for him to calm down and go away

    then he puts it in a paste, and announces it publicly and proudly.

    but Xeha also has a few interesting points, if what he says can be believed

    also, does his praise of the C++ i2pd mean that it’s devs have similar beliefs, or is it because they haven’t said any “woke” thing yet?
