@Gargron Thanks for posting. @Gargron I'm not keen on Signal. The UI itself seems alright. What I'm not a fan of is the management/leadership. A privacy app built for "privacy" should be very easy to download without an app store, yet they promote getting it from known app stores. They also anchor fear to the standalone APK download for android, labelling it the "Danger Zone". If the app and service is as secure and trustworthy as perpetuated than why anchor fear to the non-app store version?

@Gargron the sad thing is that it looks like we are getting two seperate internet now. Maybe I'll hook it up to an accurate user count bot at some point, but anyway: There are 2,728 Mastodon servers online today and on them, there are 252,893 monthly active users, a number that increased by 45,517 since Jan 11th.

@Gargron That's interesting, my node is aware of 3,200 mastodon instances, but some of those might be forks.

@Gargron I read good reviews and expected more. Slightly disappointed with the first episode but the end of the second gives some hope for the third. Not quitting yet. Finally an article that mentions Mastodon on Techcrunch, not as positive as one would hope but hey, I'll take what I can get. I think there's one good quote from me in there.

@Gargron I don't understand why these fascists even need to mentioned in that article. You are talking about the damn technology not the damn people using it other then the amount of users currently using it, I see no reason why they needed to attach such hateful people with Mastodon. But what the hell do I know? @Gargron Siegfried and Roy were my favourite characters in Father of the Pride which I have watched on a bootleg DVD on a portable DVD player when I was a teen

Notion is great! I migrated from EverNote after their pricing fiasco and haven't looked back.

@Gargron 😬 it is a bad idea but they could do it correctly if they implemented rules that didn't break the nation's laws (and allow the networks to ban for that) and only apply them to social networks larger than a certain portion of the population. Then, no large company would be able to unfairly censor people (within an extent). @Gargron So. That's already a "not worth it" level of effort to moderate, but then there's a little thing called "other countries" and the fact different countries have different laws. So every country would get it's own "filtered" version and each service has to have at least one server in each country to be able to host content illegal elsewhere, or what? |
