I really don’t have the time, or the interest, to explain it to you
Then don’t serve a check your ass can’t cash
a very small amount of digging will show you why.
Then a very smalll amount would disprove me. Until then, my point of not installing this poison still stands. Enjoy your willful ignorance.

That’s called victim blaming.
Be an informed consumer or a sorry one. It’s anyone’s choice.

- Comment on Signal – an ethical replacement for WhatsApp 2 days ago:
That’s their problem. If their messages aren’t encrypted, it isn’t like you won’t be aware of it. Request that they use a modern client and get with the times. None of this is an actual problem without easy solutions.
- Comment on Signal – an ethical replacement for WhatsApp 2 days ago:
Your reasoning would hold up if 80% of xmpp wasn’t running on Conversations or forks of it, that all support OMEMO and OpenPGP.
Your criticisms are too broad. What makes extensions powerful is that they can easily change the rules without breaking the underlying system.
Clients? That’s the clients problem, and you have choices, and if your problem is metadata, whoooo boy.

Xmpp is far lighter on resources and not ran by a company with funding issues.
- Comment on Signal – an ethical replacement for WhatsApp 2 days ago:
I believe in it,… for now.
I moved my family group to xmpp to have more personal control over our chats. Signal seems benevolent, but I’ve seen this play out before. Will it stay that way? We treat online forums with the idea that federstion works to stop enshittificstion. I believe XMPP is a good model for federating secure chatrooms for the same reason: People should control the voices of the people, not companies.
- Comment on Signal – an ethical replacement for WhatsApp 2 days ago:
They see no value in it. They don’t see that privacy is proactive measure that can protect you.
On Facebook, especially in my family, accounts get lost and hacked. One fine day, it might be someone with more influence in the family who’s attacker might make off with stolen bank information or passwords.
but “that’ll never happen”, right?

- Comment on Nexus Mods' new owners promise they won't monetise the site to death as users panic at the whiff of venture capital 6 days ago:
Preferably one with a mod manager/download client. Vortex is kind of janky but it did the job. I’d prefer not to manage any of this stuff manually, like cavemen. it’s been decades you shouldn’t need to do that
MO2 can do anything Vortex can, and in fact, Stalker and Stalker 2 modders prefer it. The files just need to be hosted elsewhere. A lot of modmakers advise against using Vortex to begin with.
- Comment on Gold Phone and Mobile Service Blasted as Latest 'Trump Family Profiteering' 6 days ago:
Let’s break down who’s actually going to buy this piece of shit.
Anyone with any experience with buying a modern Android phone?.. Nope. Metro, Tello, US Cellular, etc are all cheaper than Trump Mobile by almost half the price and the phone itself is a REVVL variant selling for $500, and Apple fans aren’t watching anyway.
So that just leaves extremely uninformed people who don’t know any better. You’ll be able to identify how little they know by the fact that they’ll pay double the going-rate of an MVNO for an overpriced, gold piece of shit.
- Comment on Google is intentionally throttling YouTube videos, slowing down users with ad blockers 1 week ago:
I can’t tell an honest difference between 1080p and 720p from across a room. On a monitor, sure, but I grew up in the 90’s. Anything 480 and above is tolerable to me.

Enjoy your new Plex subscription. 😉
- Comment on Plex has paywalled my server! 1 week ago:
there are a lot of other solutions to this
Jellyfin servers don’t connect to eachother, or relay themselves to anything else. I looked over the entire thread and didn’t see anything but ldap and tailscale/wiregusrd suggestions, but you said there were a lot of other solutions, so wherever those solutions are, I’m sure you’ll find them.
- Comment on Plex has paywalled my server! 1 week ago:
Welp, I guess they’ll just have to start their own servers or you’ll have to get out your credit card. Pity.
- Comment on Trump Mobile launches $47 service and a gold phone 1 week ago:
$47
Too high. Tello is $25 for Unlimited in the states and is also an MVNO.
- Comment on Plex has paywalled my server! 1 week ago:
Mine is public, but I block every state but the one all of my users live in(family) and I never get unwanted visitors. Couldn’t say the same if I lived in NY or CA.
If they have static IP addresses, you may be able to whitelist them in your proxy, or maybe there’s some sort of dyndns client/relay software you can run if their ips change.
