Better than Firefox being blocked in Russia. Addons can be added from files anyway.

This. Nowadays people mostly buy TVs when their old ones break. There’s no marginal improvement. The industry is here to stay, but its high growth days are in the past.
I suspect a lot of CSAM searches come from underage users themselves
Nice socks lol
1password should just open source its apps. IMHO, security and infrastructure software has no business being closed source.
Yeah.
Personally, I care about the phone number requirement not because I don’t want to reveal it to Signal servers, but because it limits access to Signal for people in countries that block their SMS service - registration messages just don’t arrive
This is important context. Signal needs to make phone numbers optional…
YARRRRRR!!!
Yeah, afaik, it only goes through TURN servers. The thing with direct Wifi or Bluetooth is that you almost never need it. Most of the time you will be messaging people on different networks. If you want more pure mesh options, check out Jami.
There’s also https://simplex.chat/
You’re taking this too seriously lol
What if the bugs are linux-specific? lol
Ah, I never encountered that. I see. Is it mostly in remote areas?
I’m all for IPv6, it’s just that there’s always something extra you have to do to set it up.
There’s another question: will we ever actually run out of IPv4 addresses, so that cloud providers and ISPs no longer offer them?
You can buy computers and phones with those OSes preinstalled, so it’s not necessarily “custom”. Otherwise, no.
10% linux is massive
I’ve suggested a routing protocol to the lemmy devs - to use federated instances to route all the messages to other federated instances. The idea was received with some interest, but it seems that people believe that there’s still a ton of performance that can be squeezed out from the current architecture through optimisations.
I usually just VPN to my routers if possible. Point to point is feels more reliable than a hole-punching mesh or proxy. On the other hand, this seems to create an end-to-end secure tunnel.
Honestly, a very impressive move. Makes me way more confident in the trajectory of the company and I’m happy to have been a visionary user for multiple years.
I wonder, though, just how much of Proton A.G. does the foundation now own? They say it’s the largest shareholder, but they didn’t say “majority shareholder”.
