A better example would be if Apple could make every instance of Safari look identital. It’s too large a percentage of traffic to block. Sure Tor is more serious about privacy than Apple, but Apple imo has the best shot at pulling it off. Google is too anti Privacy and all the smaller projects don’t have the market share. Maybe FireFox, but I don’t keep up as much with them tbh.

The command chest sheet in that article is wrong. gg is first line of the document, not H

I use neovim btw

The more you block, the more unique you become, and the more finger printable you are. Every divination from a standard browser is another data point they can use to uniquely identify you. It’s possible to fingerprint someone even with JavaScript disabled. Tor got it right imo by making every instance of Tor look as identical as possible. That’s what we need to do. Idk I’m no expert but that’s what I think.

Yeah! Whatever you feel most comfortable doing. I’m really hoping to get on the Play Store soon and be done with this nonsense. I’m actually brand new to Matrix, but you can just DM me right? I don’t need to do anything?

Omg that’s so funny. There is no reason I can think of to collab but I kinda want to just based on the name

Totally, I respect your desire for privacy. Hoping to have Blorp on the Play Store soon and be done with this nonsense. They should also unlock open testing soon which means I won’t need to ask people for emails.

GitHub, Matric, DM honestly whatever is easiest for you. I’m happy to turn your messages into formal tickets. I really appreciate you taking the time to try my app!

Anything you’re willing to submit. Just say what you like and what you don’t like.

Out of curiositity what other backends were you hoping it supported? PieFed or Mbin?

I have actually never tried Mbin, but I was talking to the PieFed devs the other day. PieFed API isn’t even stable yet, and they emphasized that they want the flexibility to implement features independent of Lemmy. For that reason, I see their API as a moving target that will slowly drift away from Lemmy. They are differnt projects with different goals. I think I can ship a better product if I focus on doing one platform really well.

If you were talking about Mbin, I would be happy to do more reserach to determine if it’s a similar situation or not.

Let’s just say hypothetically I vibe coded my vim config. Where would that put me?

Idk about older devices (unless it’s due to no longer supported os updates), but password recovery makes sense. Have you seen how tech literate your average person is? Definitely would create a lot of angry customers.

What if you turn on advanced data protection? Though even if that does achieve what you want it sucks that it’s opt in.

Weird how Apple and iMessage are not in the same category. How do distrust apple’s privacy claims but trust iMessage?

Where are you finding low risk investments with that much interest? Genuine question. Maybe I should shop around more. I would expect closer to 3.5-4%.

To be fair, we should probably all start migrating to cybersecurity positions. They’ll need it when they discover how many vulnerabilities were created by all the non-programmers vibe coding.

I really think the issue would be load on server bandwidth (depending who’s hosting the image). 2mb is not good for client performance, but in the grand scheme of things it’s not that much data. Video streaming consumes so much more. I would like to see smaller images so clients can load a feed of images faster. It’s also annoying because Lemmy doesn’t always tell you the size of the images. So the height of posts will shift in your feed as images are loaded.

lemmy shouldn’t require posters to compress their own images. Compression should happen automatically. It will save both the severs and end users bandwidth

Is that true? I know threads can federate with activity pub but 1) does opt in federation imply it’s somehow different than other activity pub based apps and 2) it can federate with mastodon but it’s not based on mastodons itself? I’m asking

Truth social, if that’s true, I had no idea it was AP, but I really hope nobody ever federates with them.

You’re saying I could be thinking twice as fast 👀
