I use Signal but I keep signal use to personal IRL contacts. I don’t use Matrix as much anymore but if you have a matrix room I’d join in. I’m on the more advanced side of the privacy lifestyle so my communications are highly compartmentalized. Simplex is a bit clunky still but for smaller communities it’s not terrible.
Do you have plans to make a Simplex group soon? You mentioned on the pod it’s where you two first met. Would love to chat and Simplex is the most private option imo.
I’d be curious to see this symbol replacing the hand in the previous thread’s eye and palm.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What Dunkey (videogamedunkey) video do you find the funniest?
2·11 months agoFor me his skyrim video back in the day had me crying. But I’m sure if I watched it now it wouldn’t be as magical.

Privacy@lemmy.ml•Is there an open source, privacy friendly universal package tracking app?
2·1 year agoI finally got around to installing this app but it requires an account. Is this a recent requirement?
I can’t remember any time in the last 2 years before I deleted my reddit account where a post I made didn’t get auto-moderated.
My bad. Its been a while, but Thunderbird at one point. If I remember right there was an update relatively recently that made it much more difficult to import offline emails, so if you find a better alternative let me know.
I should re-iterate I download the emails to use in an offline client. Their service doesn’t support third party clients to receive and send email.
When I do taxes, I need to search thousands of emails for receipts and the tuta apps make this impossible. This is my workaround.
I’ve used Tuta for years, paid account with multiple custom domains.
I prefer them for their principles, but their clients are extremely frustrating. Emails load very slowly and their email search is basically unusable.
I’ve resorted to downloading old emails and using other clients to import and search through them. I really wish they would improve their email search.

15·1 year agoSDR is Standard Dynamic Range. This is how most media is viewed and has been viewed for decades, typically in the Rec709 color space. 99% of consumer devices display in SDR.
HDR is a newer technology that expands the dynamic range passed Rec709 color space. It requires an HDR capable screen to display HDR content and most content is not distributed in this format, although this has been changing in the last few years.
I personally find HDR kind of a gimmick, but my point is that HDR != HD. SDR/HDR describe contrast ratios and how many colors are rendered. SD/HD describe resolution.
The chart does show them downgrading the plans from 4K/UHD to HD though.

201·1 year agoThe wiki entry has a chart which shows all plans have access to HD content. Is the chart wrong or did the contributor confuse SD with SDR?
Either way fuck HBO.

Privacy@lemmy.ml•Which is best at mitigating browser fingerprinting? Firefox (with or without arkenfox)? Librewolf? Mullvad browser?
9·1 year agoThis has been my experience as well. What tweaks are you making to default librewolf?
I’ve been on Lemmy for years and have yet to see a single nsfw post.
I didn’t realize they even existed.

I can honestly say Ive never used x or twitter. I absolutely hate the format and it seems like a waste of life to scroll through a feed reading quick snippets of text.
At least with a reddit or Lemmy style social media platform, I can click on the text snippet and be brought to a more in depth post about it. And it’s simple to navigate replies for useful information.
Twitter is like somebody yelling something from a megaphone, then a crowd of people screaming over them randomly.
Discord is the next platform that needs to die. Online forums were perfect for what they did, then discord came along and now it’s a nightmare to comb through any type of community or support system for useful information. Again, people screaming into the void…

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Which reverse proxy do you use/recommend?English
2·1 year agoI use nginx for static websites and TLS passthrough servers.
I use traefik as a reverse proxy for sites with many services and SSO.
Nginx is definitely easier to configure for simple things. But I prefer traefik for more complex setups.
