gasull@lemmy.mlto Privacy@lemmy.ml•A tool for encrypting files using puzzle based time-lock encryption and password5·11 months agoIf I understand it right,
- the time-lock is from the time the recipient (Carol) starts decrypting the encrypted file sent by Bob.
- future microchips, according to Moore’s Law, will decrypt the file much faster.
Please correct me if I’m wrong.
Apps that don’t work:
- Google Pay
As far that I know, that’s it.

Why not Element/Matrix?

A recent alternative with even better privacy is SimpleX: https://simplex.chat/
If you need a Chromium derivative, then Brave is probably the best choice. It’s open-source, and includes ad blocking. Just don’t use its crypto token.
I prefer Firefox over Brave, but sometimes I might need a Chromium derivative for a particular site.
gasull@lemmy.mlto Fediverse@lemmy.ml•New wave of Mastodon users thanks to Elon Musk floating around the idea of charging everyone for Twitter129·2 years agoElon didn’t say he would charge all the X/Twitter users. The media just made that up.
Good for Mastodon, though.
And a service like SimpleLogin for having a different email address per service.
And unless you’re using a social network site and you want your followers from other social network to find you there, use a different username too.
