Fosstodon

v4.2.3

GitHub Issue

Screenshot was taken on lemmy.ml, but icon is not displayed on lemmy.world either -> there is no dependence on the lemmy version.

about mastodon. i love centralized social networks because you can search for any post, regardless of the date of its creation, any person, any community. in mastodon, however, this does not work.

when you register on a small instance, people's profiles are empty, there are no posts, hashtags do not work.

if you register on a medium-sized instance, it's already better, but there are still people who are not subscribed to from someone from your instance and their profiles are empty, and even if someone is subscribed, only posts which are shown are ones that were created after the subscription of person from your instance, older are not, and the person may have been maintaining this account for a lot longer, post history preservation is broken. hashtags are already available, but still not all of them, because not all posts are available too (hashtags work like a filter for post).

if you register on a large instance, small ones will defederate from you and you will see neither their hashtags, nor interesting people, nor their posts.

there is a feeling of distortion of reality, which is a nasty feeling in itself.

Could it be that the processor sends data from the camera/microphone to the Qualcomm/Mediatek servers, bypassing the system? Is it possible to find out about this by checking the traffic leaving the device? Are there any studies that have done this? If this happens, then even GrapheneOS becomes mostly meaningless.

WHY? I've heard a lot that LineageOS cannot be called a private system. That it is more about extending the life of old devices. Can you tell me specifically point by point why it is not private? And I'm sure it's better than stock phone firmware in terms of privacy.

Why are reproducible builds only on one platform (Android)? Desktop version could have a built-in backdoor and data would be transferred not from the phone, but from the PC)

My list:

• Techlore
• Surveillance Report
• NBTV (Naomi Brockwell)
• Mental Outlaw
• Luke Smith
• Eric Murphy
• The Linux Experiment (More about Linux, but there are also videos about privacy)
• Louis Rossmann

Do not really understand how Android sandboxing works for system apps.

Mozhi is an alternative-frontend for many translation engines.

Source Code, Official instances

In the privacy community there are services, programs for private maps use. Some even suggest using the phone without a SIM card (which is quite possible, but you can get into trouble). But I don't use them, as my geolocation is already tracked by an advanced camera system in my city, by my cell provider via triangulation. What are your thoughts on this? Do you use OpenStreetMap for private navigation?

Bismuth. Making tiling window management easy. On KDE Plasma. Thanks to this fine person, we have a working Bismuth on Plasma 5.27. It only took the addition of one question mark to the code to bring it to life. Huge kudos to developer. Unfortunately, we will have to build Bismuth from source code. I built a package for Fedora 38, here you go, maybe someone will find it useful! ❤️

For the past year, I've been immersed in the topic of Privacy. I switched to Linux, flashed my phone to LineageOS, changed all my software to one that respects privacy, switched my family and most* friends to Signal, started hating megacorporations and pretty much every government in the world, asked a lot of questions on tiddeR and here. Everything makes sense to me now. I'm a privacy guru🥹. How to move on? What's the next step? 😁

P.S. if you're just at the beginning of your journey, I don't think you'll find a better resource than PrivacyGuides. Highly recommend it!

Summit. Truly awesome feature!
