These posts are already beginning to be tiring. It’s always the same software, and always the same arguments against some of the choices.

Ditching open source projects for corporate European stuff doesn’t solve anything, it just moves the problem. How can you be sure that every country in the EU won’t break some trade deals and leave the EU at some point? And closed source software is not better at protecting your privacy if that’s what you want.

And the “European based forks/open source projects”(whatever that means) is a stupid argument. For example, cryptography experts pointed out issues in threema, so why recommend it instead of signal which is open source projects, and by definition, not tied to a country?

And finally, I think we should stop recommending LLMs altogether. They’re an ecological and sociological disaster.

It’s part of the meme at this point

Wtf don’t recommend BeReal! They’ve been bought by Voodoo, a shady company trying everything they can to bypass Android/iOS privacy protection

And I read there are some issues with their crypto implementation

Matrix is trying to fill that gap

It feels like you’re describing one of my previous jobs

I guess the app then downloads the required models

Have you even read the article you posted? It mentions these posts by GrapheneOS

Well it’s a sponsor, it’s not their product.

I don’t know what it sounds like, I’m not a dog

It seems that if you watched all of Mr. Robot, you cannot stop rewatching it (I finished my 4th rewatch…)

Damn, I’m also at 66%

Hm my bad

And why use this meme if it’s for replacing 90% of the words on it

How the fuck is this “fuck cars” content? I hate cars as much as everyone here, but I don’t think we can replace ambulances with bikes

But hubby can’t eat the silicone ones

Shit meme

Good to know, thanks!

Damn, you’re shilling hard!

I don’t want to use my phone for basic features like the offline mode, I’m not always connected to the internet on my laptop, that’s it.

I don’t care about Apple music, and almost every streaming platform provides some kind of SDK. It doesn’t change the fact that I don’t have a Linux client, and probably never will (or at least feature-complete) because they partly use Dolby Atmos, which is a closed-source licensed format.

And no, even on paper, tidal’s not the better option to support artists. Buy tracks on Bandcamp, buy merch and vinyl directly from artists…

I really wanted to like tidal, but honestly it’s not really good. The search sucks, no offline mode on desktop, no official Linux client, an incomplete catalog…

It’s not worth it, even if they are the least bad for paying artists.
