08:45:47 Hello 08:46:28 I have a question 09:54:30 Me too 10:00:57 The question is what is the question 11:07:06 I want to ask a question to find out what questions are being asked. 11:45:12 The question is whether to question or not to question. 11:53:48 Sir, I need to know. 11:57:15 A wise man can learn more from a foolish question than a fool can learn from a wise answer. 11:59:24 Ive learned that I like 23 better then 24 and 25 11:59:25 Than* 12:08:39 Better to have shamir unseal keys and spread them around the world. 12:12:52 Sir, I can use ledger for shamir unsealed keys? Please read carefully 14:31:19 is calyxos ok if i want to be completely a degoogled phone 14:31:19 (no need for microg or sandbox gservices)? 14:43:49 I use calyx. Without g-services. I'm okay with it. But you give up on certain things, e.g., not all apps' push notifications work. E.g., element works, but not K9 (for gmail) or protonmail. Seth has a good guide, but seems to be offline, so here is the one from archive: https://web.archive.org/web/20220817232010/https://sethforprivacy.com/guides/installing-calyxos-linux/ 14:45:37 martin03 15:06:14 Or 15:06:14 https://divestos.org/ 15:06:14 But gos is best 15:44:48 "I use calyx. Without g-services...." <- im ok with this , this is only for my secondary phone 15:47:26 There that micro-g thing (g-services shim) that allow more apps to work without using google blob, it's what I use 15:49:22 is investing in precious white metal better than bitcoin? 15:49:22 i want to invest in rhodium , 1oz of it cost 12k 15:49:22 while there is only 644,000 oz of it in the world 15:50:54 RavFX[m]: all my app work fine without microg 15:50:55 i only use my secondary phone for open a browser and a messenger 15:59:38 * martin03[m] uploaded an image: (5KiB) < https://libera.ems.host/_matrix/media/v3/download/matrix.org/gdhuBtWpxEyabrOPSrGWqGRq/rh1825lns.gif > 16:02:17 i love precious metal over bitcoin , is just safer :) 16:02:17 bitcoin isn't that bad either for store of value 16:03:20 "I use calyx. Without g-services...." <- Element works because it supports [UnifiedPush](https://unifiedpush.org/). You can use [fairmail](https://email.faircode.eu/). 16:03:53 https://github.com/thundernest/k-9/issues/5165 16:04:04 I also like K9 16:13:08 Is fairmail still developped? I did hear it was going to be axed because of google fud 16:13:31 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31432334 16:15:25 FairEmail (Fully featured email client. Neat, intuitive user interface. Privacy friendly) 16:15:26 https://f-droid.org/packages/eu.faircode.email/ 16:15:29 Last updated today 16:17:40 I love FairEmail 16:18:31 I have Graphene OS on my Pixel 9 Pro, but would never recommend this device to anyone :D 16:18:31 Buggy af 16:19:23 Ever try fluffychat? 16:19:27 (For matrix) 16:19:52 Horrible 16:20:46 I broke fluffychat within 15 mins from the time I installed it by trying to share my session key lol 16:25:48 Similar experience. Got it to work eventually but have been unable to receive messages unless I open the app, forcing a manual refresh 16:26:40 Stnby: know any _good_ device for Graphene OS? 16:27:49 Not sure, pixel 9 pro is my first and last Google device 16:27:58 The google support was horrifying 16:28:32 They said to factory reset the device to fix black screen of death, which also did not work out, Graphene is a little bit more stable than stock tho 16:28:40 It's because of the "Google required" push notification? 16:29:08 Nope worse 16:29:32 The phone screen goes black randomly and won't go away without a reboot 16:29:52 Even signal is more annoying to use without micro-g 16:29:52 Like you have to open it to see the new messages, than you receive 25 of them because you did not open it in 2 days 16:30:01 Signal is cancer 16:30:14 People keep thinking its some private ass bullshit 16:31:00 Use matrix, tox or session. There are no other options for private messaging 16:32:11 People use it because it’s easy to onboard normies 16:32:12 Imagine onboarding your mom to tox 16:32:13 whatsapp == signal == telegram 16:32:17 chesterfield[m]: I succesfully did to element 16:32:44 why bother unboarding your mom to yet another phone number activated proprietary service (uses proprietary libs) 16:33:08 s/unboarding/onboarding/ 16:33:13 Siren[m]: Converted my workplace and friends too :D 16:33:16 Element is user friendly enough for a grandma 16:35:21 is r/monerojobs the main XMR jobs market, as it seems pretty dead? 16:35:33 Stnby[m]: Until it doesnt 16:36:08 Signal and whatsapp is also pain in the ass to use for a grandma 16:36:37 probably even bigger pain because you have to backup stuff and no useable pc client 16:37:39 Can you lose your encryption keys in signal like with matrix? 16:38:04 Yes 16:38:10 You can lose your signal keys 16:38:13 Ah ok 16:38:53 It's even worse if you want to use same signal account on multiple devices 16:38:58 Doesn't even work 16:39:01 Eww 16:39:20 Siren[m]: Or if you need to switch to a new phone 16:39:37 Notifications go through google's servers 16:39:51 Signal fine for famillia (especially when they already all use whatsapp) as then contact will auto-populate so no work needed really compared to onboarding them on matrix. 16:39:51 And if I where to onboard them on something that un-user friendly I ratter user XMPP for one to one conversations. 16:40:23 Use Tox giga chad 16:40:29 Terminal client 16:41:09 monerobull[m]1: Yes, if you change phone and don't use the backup function 16:42:26 Anyone remember early days of riot.im? 16:42:32 Siren[m]: That work just fine if you cheat and use something like titanium backup. 16:42:32 But yeah, one phone, many PC. 16:42:35 Ah yes 16:42:36 but do you need it on more than one phone? 16:42:49 πŸ”₯ πŸ’£οΈ 16:43:01 Stnby[m]: We were like fuck this shit, let's migrate to telegram 16:43:06 πŸ’€ 16:43:51 Siren[m]: That work just fine 16:43:56 Use backup function, put the two phone side by side, follow instructions 16:44:04 No, I managed to bork that too 16:44:11 Many people change phones when they die 16:44:12 Stnby[m]: noit going to onboard familia on Tox, they gonna lose there key constantly and forget who I am or something 16:44:14 RavFX[m]: It scans bluetooth or AP 16:44:29 If you go back and then retry it indefintely fails to find devices 16:44:54 s/indefintely/forever/ 16:45:20 RavFX[m]: You are 494ca803103bfe1a5bf7434e15d4a9d34dbe64e29c88b598119deb1f043721430163ddbde76c898c600f6a6c93e58f04cf7fde4625f2e4eff88e4fcbcf78bac9, easy to remember... 16:46:08 Siren[m]: I wanted to debug what it is actually scanning for and if I can sniff anything 16:46:11 Ended up breaking the app 16:47:55 Thing is, to get rid of all social scams, I got to move fast. 16:47:55 So I got signal and left familia / normies friends one week notice before deletion of all social scams. 16:48:07 And surprisly most of them got signal, I'm sure I would have got a lower swap ratio using Matrix (as my experience on Matrix, it's my third account because the first home service vanished, the second did down sometime and when it do it's for more than a day...) 16:48:24 It was easier for me, just delete it with all of the friends 16:49:40 "It scans bluetooth or AP" <- It use some auto wifi thing, so you have to leave wifi on but disconnect / forget all network 16:49:50 I did it two time so far. 16:49:50 You can also backup you'se whole signal shit and import it on youre new phone 16:50:41 Isn't it just like in whatsapp 16:50:53 it have option for that, to save all stuff on a sdcard 16:52:02 Stnby[m]: whatsapp is closed source and owned by meta. 16:52:03 Meta do collect metadata 16:52:19 the protocol is the same but no one know what Meta did to it 16:52:34 Aren't newer versions of signal client also proprietary? 16:52:41 But Signal also collects metadata 16:52:45 "Ended up breaking the app" <- Try harder πŸ˜‚ 16:54:26 So far signal supposedly have only date of subscription, data of last connection (I think) and phone number. 16:55:28 And the best part is that it uses google firebase for notifications 16:55:38 and central server where they collect anything they want 16:55:43 phone number == kyc 16:56:32 Siren[m]: https://github.com/signalapp/Signal-Android 16:56:33 For a while in the past they delayed release of source code, I think it was related to the mobilecoin scam (like they did not want people know they where implementing that until release or something like that) 16:56:47 RavFX[m]: Telegram is also "Open Source" 16:56:52 Both use proprietary libs 16:56:55 does not matter 16:57:07 RavFX[m]: I don't believe anything after seeing what some companies pass as no-logging policy etc 16:57:38 Signal in no way needs your phone number to function its all a honeypot 16:58:04 Stnby[m]: sim cost 2$ from random convenient store 16:58:04 no ID needed. 16:58:04 IF phone number == kyc, move to a free country 16:58:31 Siren[m]: Yeah, assume they all spy on you, it's why I use Signal only for familia and normies friends lol 16:58:44 you need a 20 Eur phone bunch of cash to leave to a remote village plug the phone in actibvate 16:58:49 and then burn the phone 16:59:08 s/actibvate/activate/ 16:59:48 also you have to buy phone from some random dude on with cash 16:59:59 Confiscated goods shop 17:00:40 And then when you switch to a new device you have to go buy another sim and another phone :D 17:01:03 * another phone to activate it :D 17:01:25 Stnby[m]: Or flash new IMEI lol https://kernal.eu/posts/restoring-imei/ 17:01:32 Totally legal 100% 17:02:35 The question would be, what's the best normies friends/familia compatible program to use. 17:02:35 Can't be something complicated or you are going to lose half of them or more 17:02:54 email 17:02:55 Especially that you are asking them to all install another application on there phones 17:03:16 I think element nowadays is easy enough, more elegant than signal/whatsapp 17:03:20 Stnby[m]: Why not use the backup feature? 17:03:40 you won't have the sim card by then 17:03:48 IMEI work yeah, not for all phones but doable 17:04:18 Siren[m]: One issue is that across ios, android and fdroid releases the language options are inconsistent 17:04:29 Stnby[m]: Try having a video chat face to face with email 17:04:38 ios version is missing a few languages for some reason 17:04:44 Jitsi :D 17:04:44 RavFX[m]: hold my beer, nothing is better than Jitsi 17:04:48 no account needed :D 17:05:00 No app, no account 17:05:03 Siren[m]: If you use matrix.com homeserver. 17:05:03 I think it ask for SMS verification, right? 17:05:21 I just dont talk to people 17:05:22 No clue 17:05:25 like I said earlier, I went thru 3 homeserver before, imajin if the same think append to you're familia, they will abandon and delete the app lol 17:05:37 I created everyone accounts on my own homeserver 17:05:47 Stnby[m]: Yep, I plan to make a server eventually for that thing 17:06:12 s/think/thing/ 17:07:53 Siren[m]: That work. 17:07:53 Dendrite 17:07:53 That require you to maintain a homeserver forever 17:07:53 is there something better that this unoptimized piece of heavyness that is synapse? 17:08:18 I also thought synapse was very heavy but it surprisingly isn't that resource hungry 17:09:05 > <@gfdshygti53:monero.social> That work. 17:09:05 > That require you to maintain a homeserver forever 17:09:05 > is there something better that this unoptimized piece of heavyness that is synapse? 17:09:05 matrix.org instance or a bunch of other ones from various communities works fine 17:09:07 At worst use ours XDD 17:09:59 Gonna have a dedicated server or something. Or disable the federation stuff so you're familia won't begin to enjoy Matrix from you're homeserver and join other big channel 17:10:05 Siren[m]: Will take a look at it, thanks 17:10:07 Still cheaper to host than a telegram crypto scam, discord nitro or selling yourself to Meta and google 17:10:22 Siren[m]: I wanted to send a screenshot of our grafana dashboard but it's broken wonder who broke it >:( 17:11:03 Stnby[m]: matrix.org need phone number SMS verification right. 17:11:03 I remember having tried matrix.org homeserver in the past and abandonned, I don't remember the exact reason 17:13:43 I do not think matrix.org needs phone number for anything. It is only an option.
