I use Signal, but I’m unable to force everybody to do the same.
Re-implementation means reverse-engineering and building new binaries. What’s the point of MicroG if it is just downloading google binaries? An app with privileged access is different than a remote access trojan. The whole point of a sandbox is not to have the same access as the original app.
What you are saying doesn’t make any sense.
Any chance to use Whatsapp on /e/ ?
Yeah that’s unbelievable, I had the same experience! You must never install your bank app, otherwise it will start always requiring it.
Sounds to me that it would have been easier to create a web-based client for an existing messaging system with such features (like Briar).
This is very detailed 😆 I would have appreciated going for Codeberg too. This is not so bad as used just for hosting the repo, a future migration away from GH would be a breeze.
It seems to me that there will be much less relays than there are AP nodes. Users won’t publish/subscribe to hundred of relays (if they did, relays would not scale). Hence more bad content to less moderators, and poor moderation.
Adding client filters would just shift the censorship power to those maintaining them.
I’m still using MPD+ncmpcpp. For remote access, I use Wireguard and stream via HTTP on VLC. It’s amazingly fast and lightweight (26MB RAM for 30K+ songs).
MALP also works on Android, might be better with no physical keyboard (now supports streaming also).

A bunch of eDonkey servers were seized in 2006. This was before the implementation of Kademlia in emule. It highlighted the vulnerable centralized part of the protocol and pushed people to alternatives. Also compared to bittorrent, the lack of moderation and low speed played a role.
I would add:
Except that powering the world with nuclear would require thousands of reactors and so much more disasters. This doesn’t even factor the space abandonned to store «normal» toxic materials.
63.3K commits from 1K+ contributors and still pre-alpha, it’s amazing what a nightmare web browsers have become!
