non-standard algorithm

thats exactely the point lol. Why would you use an algorithm designed and proposed by the US government in a “secure” messenger?

completely agree with you. I can’t believe why you are getting downvoted. Promoting a platform which is funded by the CIA, US gov and Israel. Completely insane really I don’t understand how people are still believing this. They really need to wake up to the truth otherwise things will never change. Privacy will stay an illusion we give ourselves to believe that nobody can read our messages (even if they absolutely can)

I’m not forcing you to believe anything. Also this is a free platform where I can say what I think. I won’t hold myself back from expressing my view only because the majority has a different opinikn (looking at the downvotes). I personally just wouldn’t trust it. And it also doesn’t have any difference to Whatsapp and co. (encryprion algos are the same) which completely removes the purpose of it even existing (ik open source is still an argument. But they don’t have reproducable builds so even that falls apart) so there really isn’t any reason for me to switch to it or promote it to anybody at all.

1. The Encryption algorithm of Signal is basically the same algorithms proposed by the US gov in 2000. There is no way they would release these encryption algorithms if they couldn’t break them themsleves
2. If you would see which organisations are supporting Signal (look at where Signal gets all the money), you would also agree with me. There is no way these organasations are supporting them for your privacy. Why would they? The same people who are trying their best to get all your data. Believing this is just pure naivity imo but call me what you want

Signal is much worse than Telegram (in terms of privacy)

Telegram just exposed Signal to not be secure at all. So I don’t think going from Whatsapp to Signal makes any difference at all. They have the same encryption algorithms proposed by the US in the year 2000.

this looks fucking great!

It looks Russia and China are the only ones who are not in this party but could potentially defend themselves against it. Not saying they are good or anything

They don’t want us (consumers) to own anything. The world will turn up and down before this gets released to consumers.

It’s def still the best app though. For me personally the only reason why I’m on lemmy.

I wouldn’t trust a billion dollar company to not sell my datam Just sayin

Flow Launcher. Alt + space to open anything. Faster than powertoys run and all the other tools i used before.

Immich: Google Photos alternative (link)

lol

almost nobody does that though. And after a certain amount of time even power users are like “yeah. f* it”. So default settings ARE important imo

Elon Musk. I know you guys hate him somehow but. HE DID build reusable rockets. HE DID build electric cars. HE DID restore Free Speech even though you guys somehow don’t agree with that because people now can say anything they want and you can’t live in your own little bubble without any criticism anymore (on twitter). And that’s not what left wingers want lol.

bro 💀

I cant think bad of a person who I watch since years and who has helped me get into this tech space without hearing his argument first. I don’t know why all you guys are hating on him for no reason 😣

This might sound like im a fan boy but i just can’t imagine Linus doing that. She already was in such bad from all the stuff. She might have made it up to be something really big without it being that as well
