• What were your less than ideal experiences with GrapheneOS?

  Check out https://molly.im/. It's a hardened Signal fork with one version stripping the google dependencies out of it. Push notifications work flawlessly even with battery optimization enabled. Source: about 1 year ago

• Signal Removes SMS - Any Recommendations?

  The one benefit is that we now have no reason NOT to use Molly (the hardened version of Signal). Previously I didn't just because of sms. https://molly.im/. Source: about 1 year ago

• Why does Signal discourage downloading the apk directly?

  Hi, you can add the repository in fdroid of a fork of signal, Molly Molly , you have a FOSS version. Source: about 1 year ago

• ‘I will show you how safe Telegram is’

  Signal uses Curve25519, AES-256, and HMAC-SHA256 for its e2e encryption. So unless you believe those algorithms are insecure, there's no reason to think that their server setup is a compromise on your messages' security. Fear of "future decryption" applies equally to all forms of encrypted communication, regardless of which servers the messages go through. And since AES-256 is known to resist quantum computing... - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago

• A new onboarding experience on Mastodon

  The title undersells the change a bit in my opinion. By default, mastodon now encourages new users to sign-up on https://mastodon.social which has caused a bit of a kerfuffle in the fediverse. Personally, I'm largely ambivalent to the change; I understand the reasoning, and it's what https://element.io has been doing for https://matrix.org since the beginning. It is more than a bit of a sea-change though given the... - Source: Hacker News / 12 months ago

• Paying users get early access to the new change

  We currently have the Matrix protocol, with client applications such as Element supporting it. We also have XMPP as another option. Generally more modern than IRC, these platforms are primarily developed as FOSS software. This makes it less likely for developers to impact their users negatively. However, despite these advantages, these platforms lack the refined user experience (addictiveness and stickiness) that... Source: 12 months ago

• [For Hire] Computer Programming Tutor or Teacher (C, C++, and others, details inside)

  Please DM me if you are interested in hiring me or have any questions at all. We will work via Element (https://element.io) voice/screen share calls, so please make sure you have a mic available. I look forward to hearing from you. Source: 12 months ago

• Discord alternatives?

  Your best bet is probably matrix, the most user friendly client iirc is element. Source: 12 months ago
