@ondra@raucaoJust replace proof of work (Bitcoin) with proof of stake (Ethereum 2.0, Cardano) and you get the advanteges of decentralized cryptocurrency withou the extreme power consumption.If Elon was doing it because he believed in crypto/blockchain and not just for publicity, he would accept Cardano, or something else that is PoS.

@kevWell, your photos are not shown to a human, but to a machine that tells the human if it finds what he/she was looking for.Are they still private?@sotolf @thewk

@pyre35Install it directly on the computer - if you want to go back to windows just install it again. You probably want to clean the computer anyway

@joeligj12Only browser? Fedora silverblue would be extremely reliable, but installing anything other than flatpacks will be pain.

@pyre35 @joeligj12 I would not install Manjaro for a non-technical person who wants things to just work. I've been using it for 2 years and so far twice an update broke something and I had to rollback a timeshift backup.

@pyre35 since I set up Nextcloud, I use it for everything. Files, contacts, calendar, notes,... one service. (I self-host it on an old laptop, but you don't have to)

@pyre35 I really like Apostrophe - similar to Ghostwriter, but made using GTK therefore looks even cleaner. And supports LaTeX equations which is a killer fearure for me.https://flathub.org/apps/details/org.gnome.gitlab.somas.Apostrophe

@joel Zerotier is great, only the android client uses lots of battery while active, from my experience.BTW it's not entirely FOSS, its license is something like "FOSS for non-commecial use only", but that is fine by me.

@mig @albi Za těch 5 let zemře na covid daleko, daleko víc lidí než na očkování. A mnohem více lidí přijde o zaměstnání/jinak jim lockdown zničí život.Já radši risknu malou šanci že budu mít špatnou reakci na očkování než výrazně větší šanci že budu mít těžký průběh covidu, který stejně dřív nebo později chytnu (možná ne, když se naočkují ostatní :) )

@archos před rokem a půl jsem si doma měnil na podobně zalepenym Galaxy S8 port - být šikovnější na nebát se to víc prohřát horkovzdušnou pistolí tak by snad ani to zadní sklo neprasklo :)To musej být fakt dementi jestli jim *v servisu* půlka displejů praskne.

@joel @poggers69420pogchamplmaololpog tried Kvæsitso but was laggy beyond usable too, which is really a shame. Its search is very good.

@lrvick I would love to use matrix everywhere, but last time I tried, I got the dreaded "unable to decrypt message" and could not read messages from my friend anymore. That's intolerable UX :(. I've been waiting too long for matrix to get good.Signal is centralized, but has better security and apps you actually want to use.

@lrvick Signal is using reproducible builds, so you can verify that the binaries match the source code. And I rather have my messages properly encrypted on a centralized server than using a decentralized network that leaks my messages to hackers because of a bug.As I said, I'm big fan of decentralized protocols (email, XMPP, Matrix) but they need to work. Matrix does not :(.

@lrvick Let me check those reproducible builds... I don't get why they would need to disable them for mobile coin...Element X is getting better now, but it is still a bit clumsy. I was chatting with my friend when suddenly none of us could decrypt each other's messages. If it was a chat between my mom and and granpa, they would have no idea what to do and they would go back to WhatsApp :( unacceptable.Also Element Desktop is warning about some problem with libsecret every time I start it :(

@lrvick You can use Signal's self-updating APK from their website on a de-googled custom ROM.The UX bugs and shortcomings of Matrix are so severe in my experience that you cannot look past them. Matrix is not something I would install on my grandpa's phone and expected it to work.Also, you are ignoring XMPP. Why don't you use that?

@lrvick wtf are you talking about? All app installs on Android are TOFU (trust on first use). And how do you install F-Droid? By sideloading it! Most of your claims are half-trues of completely wrong, so I'm ending the discussion here. If you want to discuss further, support your claims by evidence first.
