1·2 days agoThis is the best advice, in my opinion, keeping your data in a separate partition (or a separate drive if possible). This makes distro-hopping a breeze, since your data remains intact between distros.
After that, jump around as much as you want until you find something you’re comfortable with.
32·2 days agoWell, I’m keeping mine. I’m actually very happy with it. This article is full slop, with loads of disinformation, and an evident lack of research. It looks like it was made with some Ai bullshit and the writer didn’t even check what that thing vomited.
Where does it say “zero trust” ‘on Protons own page’? It does not say “zero-trust” anywhere, it says “zero-access”. The data is encrypted at rest, so it is not e2ee. They never mention end-to-end encryption for Lumo, except for ghost mode, and they are talking about the chat once it’s complete and you choose to leave it there to use later, not about the prompts you send in.
Zero-access encryption
Your chats are stored using our battle-tested zero-access encryption, so even we can’t read them, similar to other Proton services such as Proton Mail, Proton Drive, and Proton Pass. Our encryption is open source and trusted by over 100 million people to secure their data.
Which means that they are not advertising anything they are not doing or cannot do.
By posting this disinformation all you’re achieving is getting people to pedal back to all the shit services out there for “free” because many will start believing that privacy is way harder than it actually is so ‘what’s the point’ or, even worse, no alternative will help me be more private so I might as well just stop trying.
Let us know when it’s ready for Alpha testing. Most of us will gladly give it a shot and help iron it out.
No, still required. However, you can have a username of sorts to give to people and block finding you by phone number in the platform.
Oh, NICE! Thank you so much. Great idea.
1·3 days agoThe information department informs that there is nothing new to inform. More information when we are informed.
Cars, yes, driven by humans. But not by AI bullshit.
6·4 days agoEven if it’s based on Signal’s encryption, it doesn’t mean it’s implemented as it is in Signal.
I would argue that, if that is a requisite for them being your friends, they are not your friends. Win - win.
Some times, to both statements 😂
This is not only very similar to my experience and entirely possible, but it’s also extremely healthy mentally and, date I say, physically.
I am (was?) one of those. Working on eliminating or changing the passwords and emails of my 550+ accounts. I’m creating a simplelogin email for each of the ones I’m keeping, setting up a randomly generated password for each as well (24+ characters long with every possible character available), trying to delete the accounts of services I don’t want/need anymore, and then setting up 2fa on Aegis if they don’t accept a hardware tokens.
But it’s an intense and long process, though absolutely worth it. With work and personal life, I’m guessing I can be done in a couple of weeks.
Damn. That’s a fucking paradox if I’ve ever seen one.
Can, would, should. All words to define "not sure if ‘is’.
17·8 days agoGood for you. You do you. I’ll keep pirating all the games I can, and if they are from a respected developer (fuck you Ubisoft, EA, Blizzard, etc.) AND I like the game, then I’ll certainly buy it.
This has me wondering how my sack of potatoes body would look 🤣
If you like “unlikely to break, don’t mind my software and kernel a bit behind”, anything Debian or Ubuntu based will be fine. Now, if you want cutting edge, even if you have to get pissed and confused a bit, Arch or Fedora based, in my opinion.
At the end of the day it comes down to taste and need. They all work (mostly 😋).
