WTF is up with that comic? are those indian companies?

[–] ruplicant 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

actually, years ago there was a long drawn out drama about people in Signal's team refusing to publish on F-Droid because of "security concerns" in Moxie's time. IIRC they worked to take down builds on the main repo

you can probably still find the old github threads with the lenghty discussions

I've just seen it. I suppose Signal-FOSS has the same signature, since I can choose between the two repos on its F-Droid panel

[–] ruplicant 1 points 2 months ago (2 children)

since when? that's good news to me!

the alternatives seem to be Molly on the main repo and Signal-FOSS on TwinHelix's

talk about a n irrelevant comment! you're informing us you've blocked someone, hahaha

these guys are great!

I was also blown away the first time I've seen bioluminescent bacteria on some strip algae...you would pass your finger by them and see the hidden binary encoded alien messages

I, personally, am taking no offense. I might be feeling more self-concious, tho

You say my likeness is irrelevant, but it did not feel irrelevant to me when I 've seen the post. Not that I assume that what I've felt should be relevant to you, I just decided to share these thoughts

If there are such good, explainable reasons to shit on this shitbag, I don't see how our similarities have any weight

I also hope I didn't just murder humour

would you worry I'd feel insecure with my appearance, though? should I just avoid these comments when I see them?

what if I lurk here, despise the man and happen to be physically very similar to him?

stallman was right

can some one explain me what do these "tops" and "bottoms" that I'm seeing all over mean? are they actually about sexual positions and attitudes like "subs" and "doms"??

wow, you've got a dense ethernet forest there! are there any kind of bugs you can attract to control ethernet?

Should sh.itjust.works preemptively defederate from Threads?

Threads is the not-so-new ~~reddit-like~~ twitter-like public forum platform by Meta, the same commercial company behind internet behemoths like Facebook, Instagram and Whatsapp. They're working on ActivityPub integration so that they can bridge (federate?) with the fediverse. As far as I know, the focus is on Mastodon instances, but in the future that could include Lemmy instances too.

Some have raised the question, worried about the future of the fediverse or even claiming that it goes against its definition.

What do you think should be done?

EDIT: correction

EDIT.2: The Vote is on! Go make your voice heard. You have until Friday the 29th.

Fediverse instances' status on federation with Threads

~~how can i know the de/federation status of the instance? IIRC the instance subscribed to an auto-defederation program to auto exclude bot instances and such. is there a way to distinguish these from the manual defederations? like exploding heads, or hexbear (i thought we were defederated from them but i've just seen the old posts from their users here on /c/main)~~

~~i'm asking just to have a way of knowing wich parts of the fediverse are hidden from view, since it's not obvious to me~~

also would like to know if there is a plan on the instance about threads? i've scoured The Agora but found nothing. wouldn't mind creating a discussion there

EDIT: just found the answer to my first question on another post: https://sh.itjust.works/instances

Mull and Android WebView (sh.itjust.works)
submitted 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) by ruplicant to c/[email protected]
 

for anyone using Mull on Android, since i'm using it that the webview i see in apps like Feeder seems to be using Mull, although when checking the implementation in Dev Options, it does look (from logo and name lol) like normal Chromium webview

screenshot of Feeder app showing Mull context window

what's really going on here, and how could i have properly checked it myself?

EDIT: vain attempts at posting inline image instead of link to hoster

EDIT2: thanks to [email protected] with the image thing (dumb me thought [] was that rectangle character you get in some fields where that character is not recognized ಠᴗಠ )

 

since i've read this community was created by mods of r/ProtonMail and chose to uncritically believe it, this is the closest we are to an officially lemmy presence, so...just to make sure this question is in every ProtonMail forum:

ProtonMail app on F-Droid when???
