The illusion of choice
A lot of “normal” dating apps are also owned by the same companies

Source? Afaik there’s no backdoor in their cryptography, except maybe if using the cloud to back up your chats?

Oh nice! I felt like website did a bad job at explaining what it is and how it works
- Comment on Google will develop the Android OS fully in private; Will continue open source releases. 4 weeks ago:
Platform developers, including those who build custom ROMs, will largely also see little change, since they typically base their work on specific tags or release branches, not the main AOSP branch. Similarly, companies that release forked AOSP products rarely use the main AOSP branch due to its inherent instability.

That’s not what’s implied at all. Please don’t spread misinformation

How does that differ from something like Nextcloud?

Not that much do though, but yea, people should

Leaking private DMs between you and an ex is a dick move 😵
- Comment on Privacy — why should I care 4 weeks ago:
You can find your way around, but you’ll spend twice the amount of time doing the same tasks that you could easily do on apps. Also, bye bye bank apps, or any Android games
- Comment on Privacy — why should I care 4 weeks ago:
and what % of apps are installed outside of the Google Play Store…?
They push warning messages all over the OS to deter users from doing that…

15% for the first $1M (USD) revenue earned by the developer each year 30% for earnings in excess of $1M (USD) revenue earned by the developer each year
Apple takes 30%
- Comment on Privacy — why should I care 4 weeks ago:
90%+ apps require Google play services, which basically allows them to know every app you use, and potentially more.
There’s also a surge in apps implementing integrity checks, which makes you unable to run certain apps entirely with a custom ROM

Still a pain :( they’re too afraid we’ll use regional pricing?

I would imagine you also have the right not to act
Else… they can just force you to enter the code the same way as they can force you to put your finger on the screen…

I don’t get this thread… if you’re captured they can ask for anything

- Comment on Kill your Feeds - Stop letting algorithms dictate how you think 1 month ago:
Shows uninteresting posts / trash posts containing a few words or so
- Comment on Kill your Feeds - Stop letting algorithms dictate how you think 1 month ago:
I’m sure they do, but I want them. It doesn’t have to be dumb content. It can make you discover and learn things while being addicting.
- Comment on Kill your Feeds - Stop letting algorithms dictate how you think 1 month ago:
All for it, except maybe for it to run locally. An instance running it will be faster as it already has all posts and comments stored.
- Comment on Kill your Feeds - Stop letting algorithms dictate how you think 1 month ago:
People say algorithms hook you and make you dependent: they show you the stuff you want, so you stay for longer. If I didn’t want to see stuff I want, I wouldn’t go to Lemmy…
- Comment on Kill your Feeds - Stop letting algorithms dictate how you think 1 month ago:
No algorithm makes social networks so annoying. Lemmy is so much annoying because of this. I always see the same stuff, aka US news and some shitposts, the usual upvoted and trending stuff
There’s no discovery algorithm and no way to see posts from smaller subscribed communities easily. Each sorting method returns non-interesting posts.
