You literally missed the definition of end-to-end encryption.

If Meta can see the messages, then that’s not e2ee

People need to stop calling these things cryptocurrency. They have almost none of the properties of cryptocurrencies, such as premissionless transactions and pseudonymous wallets

Matrix can’t be forced to put backdoors into their software because they are not s company. Signal can.

Pick 4 NGOs per year. Donate 10% of income at the end of the year to them evenly.

Next year pick another 4 NGOs that you think did great work that year.

Yes. Most of my contributions are “drinking water” (public water fountains) and “restrooms”

I’ve been meaning to ask: what’s the appropriate POI for a normal 115/220 power outlet socket?

Yes, if you want privacy then you need a good VPN provider

Mt ISP can’t see my traffic or my DNS lookups lol

Java, really? Doubt it

This is misinformation. Flatpaks are far less secure than installing from apt. All packages installed from apt are cryptographically signed. This isn’t the case with flatpaks.

Ah, if it’s only available on flatpaks, that’s why few people know about it.

Flatpak is a very insecure method to download software BTW, you probably should avoid it

Edit: It’s curious that I’m getting downvoted for stating a fact. It seems a lot of flatpak users don’t understand security. But that’s kinda the point: even the flatpak developers don’t understand the difference between integrity and authenticity

Flatpak currently does not provide authenticity, and one developer made it clear that he doesn’t understand why that matters in the above ticket that requested signatures of packages back in 2016. It’s been 7 years and still they haven’t fixed this. I don’t think the flatpak team understands or cares about security.

How is this better than zim? Is this in the Debian repos?

Where can I buy it? I want to drink it and walk through grassy fields without worrying.

Meta was never a source of news…

I like XMPP and OTR is nice, but we need double-ratchet for secure communications and sync with multiple devices.
