In an unusual and unusable place

I’m calling the E2E algirithm open source. That’s the reason why WhatsApp is using it, too. As long as the message is correctly encrypted for E2E on the client side, it should not matter what the server is doing as far as I know.

The algorithm for the end to end encryption is open source as far as I know. Should be easy for security researchers to prove that something is manipulated…

1. When talking abou encryption for chat apps, it’s uaually about E2E…

2. We are usually talking about open groups on Telegram. I can join them. You can join them. Police can join them. Everyone can read everything afterwards.

Your connection to the Lemmy server you are using is also encrypted. But I can read your response anyway… So, no E2E…

You don’t need to crack down encryption for most of the platform. There are people in open groups who sometimes post illegal stuff.

If someone posts that they want to see person XY dead, it should not make a difference whether it’s on Reddit, Lemmy or in an open Telegram group…

The least we can expect is some kind of moderation like on Reddit or here.

Ah… And what is that accusation backed with?

Thanks, did not know about this.

So, from a technical view…

There is a person who is mad about the fact that a different opinion might exist… That person clicks downvote in their app and it does not have any effect??

Or are the downvotes still broascasted to all instances, but “my new” instance just ignores them? Just curious, how dislikes enabled and disabled both work in a decentralized system…

Showing upvoters and removing downvotes completely!!

People downvote totally harmless posts and comments, just because they have a different opinion.

This useless and contraproductive negativity is the reason why YouTube removed downvotes and many other platforms never offered such a feature.

I have like 20 flatpak software products running without any problem for 2 years now.

I’m not a fan of the bloated plain text md files either. But I had not found a FOSS alternative that offers all the other features, like Android apps, pencip drawing support on tablets, the E2E encrypted sync between devices via a central server, …

I’m not against one more md note taking app and I like KDE, but do we really need one more?

Are there major differences planned compared to Joplin?

Arc# is what happens when Microsoft copies it.

There is patriotism and there is nationalism. They are not the same thing.

It’s designed by China to hurt your country in the long run, not specifically you.

Me and my Debian will have to wait for it…

A major German party (SPD) decided to quit using Twitter a few weeks ago.

They want a free market. They want to sell their service across borders. They don’t want law makers to limit what they can do.

And what’s their service? A non-democratic system with many limitations and restrictions and they decide on a very detailed level what you have to do to use it.

Not a bad feature IMO…

Why? I don’t understand. Doesn’t it have any update mechanism for that?

My problem with it: It was not consistent when using KDE:

In Dolpin, it’s a single click…

When downloading something in Firefox and choosing the location, it’s a double click.
