Start DeGoogling today and stop Big G from exploiting your data! In this in-depth guide learn how to quit Google apps for good, and start using Tuta’s privacy expert’s recommended apps instead.
Not only are they Chromium based and thus IMO shouldn't be included if vanilla Chromium is in the list, but they also have their weird crypto stuff and the CEO has A LOT of problematic views.
I'm not really fond of including it due to the founders homophobic past.
The argument of not including it because it's Chromium falls short in my opinion as DuckDuckGo and Privacy Browser are included, which on Android use System WebView (likely Chrome WebView). WebView is a lot less secure then a Chromium based browser.
I believe Firefox based browsers are also less secure on Android due to not having Per-Site Process Isolation.
Brave is a valid option because it is one of the few (or only) open source chromium browsers that has a built in ad/content-blocker, uses proper anti-fingerprinting protections, has extra privacy features, and benefits from the chromium security. I underastand the concerns regarding the crypto crap, but those can be turned off. That being said it is a valid option, especially for newbies.
Here's some changes It'd suggest: - Add @organicmaps to the gmaps alternatives. it's by far the easiest osm based maps app - Add @ente auth for google auth alternatives. it's much more feature rich and it's foss - add @kagihq to the search engines. They're privacy respecting * one small note is that they do utilize google as one of it's search indexes that it uses, so you'd still be giving google some money technically (had to mention it)
Why are you recommending Authy, a very shitty service, but not Organic Maps and Obtainium for .apk updates?
For browsers there is Mulch and Mull from DivestOS, which are forks of Chromium and Firefox respectively or Brave. Either of which would be much better than Fennec, Privacy Browser, or Firefox from a privacy or security perspective.
Because most web developers don't seem to build websites with Firefox users in mind, there are a good number of websites that function poorly in Firefox.
So, for the users seeking an alternative that don't want to use Firefox, I'd say include an open source Chromium-based browser. There are none that are convenient, except Brave and Chromium itself. But Chromium would be defeating the purpose.
Unfortunately, the majority of people care more about convenience than anything else.
@adam_wysokinski /e/OS is an extraordinarily insecure operating system massively rolling back security even more than LineageOS already does. It completely destroys the security model and is always at least a year behind on providing full privacy/security patches. CalyxOS is problematic for security, LineageOS is far more problematic but /e/OS is an extreme form of that comparable to you recommending people use Windows 8 because it's not from Google.
Some recommendations: - Add ente auth from @ente instead of Authy. - Add proton pass from @protonprivacy to the password manager section. - Add mullvad browser from @mullvadnet to the browser section. - Also add @brave too since even if it is based on chromium it is still better than using chrome. - Add divestos.org/ to the alternative os section.
What’s wrong with Chromium? Browsers based on it use a robust sandbox and enhanced security measures. According to @GrapheneOS recommendations, we should "avoid Gecko-based browsers like Firefox as they're currently much more vulnerable to exploitation and inherently add a huge amount of attack surface". grapheneos.org/usage#web-brows…
Your current list includes 5 web browsers where 3 of them completely lack even a content sandbox due to being based on Firefox for Android and the other 2 are based on Chromium. DuckDuckGo and Privacy Browser are WebView-based browsers using the system WebView implementation, which is provided by the OS with a Chromium-based browser engine. On Android operating systems including the Google apps and services, DuckDuckGo and Privacy Browser are directly using Google Chrome itself.
Chromium shows that the browser itself is alright, it's the figurative "last 5%", where Google adds proprietary features to create Chrome, that taints the well.
Also, for people who are trying to promote cancel culture towards Brave, there are also great people at Brave, such as @bcrypt.
No cos it's run by a homophobe, it contains shady crypto nonsense that add their own ad service, and it's overall controversial, making it safer for you to not include them. Their ad system makes a lot of money to Brave, but it does not to the users nor to the websites. I'd say it's scummy. Apparently the broswer also automatically added affiliate link to purchases. Affiliate links enable tracking.
Hi. I just realised you have a typo on this image - it’s Ecosia - you have an extra s. You need to fix it on the blog too where you mention Google services’ alternatives: it’s on the image again - the name of the search engine . Thank you for the great post 🙏🏼
Wild ass day in the Tor node operator world. Got an email from my VPS, forwarding a complaint from WatchDog CyberSecurity saying that my box was scanning SSH ports!
> Oh no, oh no, I knew I should have set up fail2ban, oh god why was I so lackadaisical!
So I remote in to the machine: no unusual network activity, no unusual processes, users, logins, command history, no sign that anything is doing anything I didn't tell it to do.
So what's up? Turns out there's been a widespread campaign where some actor is spoofing IPs to make it look like systems running Tor are scanning port 22: forum.torproject.org/t/tor-rel…
Operators from all over are saying they're getting nastygrams from their VPS providers because WatchDog is fingering their source IPs (which are being spoofed and NOT part of a global portscanning botnet).
It would be hard to explain to Verizon I run Tor relays since they technically don't allow servers. I hope I'm not forced onto AT&T Internet Air as my particular co-op rental unit won't let met get Spectrum even when other units can, not that I wante…

#PSA: if you have a small business that ships items, consider not using Uline: the owner uses the company's profits to fund right wing anti-democratic causes.
Uline is a purposely political company aligned with extreme right-wing ideology. Despite their politics, millions of small businesses and artists still use ULINE completely unaware of what their dollars are supporting. This needs to end now.

"Disposable vapes are indefensible. Many, or maybe most, of them contain rechargeable lithium-ion batteries, but manufacturers prefer to sell new ones.

Wohooo! Díky @archos za upozornění, pokud používáte Matrix (mxchat) a jste stejně pomalí jako já a nepostřehli jste to, vyšla oficiálně appka Element X a je boží. Vypadá jak z 21 století, je citelně rychlejší a šlape bezchybně
Element X brings you both sovereign & seamless collaboration built on Matrix.
The collaboration capabilities include chat & video calls with the modern set of features such as:
• public & private channels
• room moderation & access control
• replie…
@jackc Ano, přidával. Už to běží dlouho u nás, ale po poslední aktualizaci Element X to fakt šlape super. Výydrž na verzi 2.0, tam už to má být vyřešené 👍 @cynik_obecny
@jackc Nebyl X původně jen platforma pro vývoj klasického matrixu? Nebo jste našli někde jaký má být postup dál? Máme vlastní a jede nám na tom firma, tak nevím jak dál
@Unreed Původně bylo v plánu, že Element X nahradí klasický Element. Stačí aktualizovat na verzi 1.114, Simplified Sliding Sync je tam nativně implementován . @jackc @cynik_obecny
nemůžu se připojit na svůj server aplikace ho "nevidí", to je bolest elementu jako takového. Často člověk neví, proč to nefunguje, kdyby to aspoň napsalo jsi debil, nemáš aktuální verzi, nebo jsi to špatně nastavil. Achjo.
jj, tomu to funguje všechno suprově, já spíš narážím na to, že jsem rozjet vlastní instanci je tak zbytečně složité bez nějakého uceleného návodu, že je to velká škoda.
@jan bohužel. A bohužel to mnohdy nezachrání ani ten návod, protože množství proměnných je nekontrolovatelné. Proto jsem se na to vykašlal a raději to svěřil Zdeňkovi. Za prvé mu to funguje a za druhé, když náhodou ne, mám komu nadávat a nemusím si vztekle leštit pleš 😇
@jan Ahoj, nejede to z duvodu stare verze Synapse, mas 1.97.0, aktualni je 1.118.0 - v nejnovejsi neni treba pak uz nic vic nastavit (driv byvala separatni proxy, ale "simplified sliding sync" je nyni nativne soucasti synapse).
@mahdi tak už jsem na verzi 1.118.0 a pořád stejné 😞 Máte někdo nějaký nápad? 100% mám něco špatně nastavené, ale když to nezobrazí žádnou chybu, špatně se to ladí.
@mahdi připadám si jako dement, když zadám celé URI serveru je to funkční! Asi by bylo fajn, kdyby se tam přidal nějaký example nebo aspoň hint na ten text view. Díky moc!
@mahdi tak už jsme přepnuli na Element X, je to pěkný, video hovory jsou taky super. Taky ale máme na začátku hovoru na Androidu mute? Je to bug nebo feature, kterou můžu vypnout?
Inspired by @kees and @bagder I graphed #ArkScript source code age (last 3.x version is from mid 2023 hence the big purple triangle starting in 2023)
There seems to be a lot of code, but tests are counted too. 16'540 lines for the source code only, and 12'430 for the tests (8k dedicated to the fuzzing corpus, 4k for the unit tests)
I attribute the big jump to my recent "add tests everywhere" addiction
nice, but there seems to be weird details in this: how come 2023 grows after 2023? How come the 2024 contributions are seen already a year before 2024 starts?
tweaked the script a bit and this was the answer: vX.Y.Z-something tags are ignored (I've been tagging v4.0.0-rcX for more than a year now), leading to missing data points Tags are ordered using git tag --sort=authordate instead of sorting them using semver (because I have some... questionable v3.2.0-a tags)

@gnome, @tdforg, @fsfe and many other community-driven Free and Open Source organizations are the Good People of the tech world.
This year we are asking you consider them (and also maybe us!) when you #donate. Help out the people that fight for your digital rights, your privacy,and your right to not be exploited by predatory corporations in the tech industry.
Good people in the world of tech populate the non-profit communities run by altruistic volunteers with no commercial interests, and therefore no interest in exploiting you, your work, or your data.
The Metropolitan Museum of Art has put online 492,000 high-resolution images of artistic works.
Even better, the museum has placed the vast majority of these images into the public domain, meaning they can be downloaded directly from the museum’s website for non-commercial use.
When you browse the Met collection and find an image that you fancy, just look at the lower left-hand side of the image.
If you see an “OA” icon and the words “public domain”, you’re free to use the image, provided that you abide by the Met’s terms.
In making this collection available online, the Met joined other world-class museums in putting large troves of digital art online.
Witness the 88,000 images from the Getty in L.A., the 125,000 Dutch masterpieces from the Rijksmuseum, the 50,000 artistic images from the National Gallery, and the 1.9 million images from the British Museum. openculture.com/2024/11/the-me…

Legendary music producer behind hits from Sinatra to Michael Jackson.
I know I'm alone in this, but I think "Billie Jean" was a more iconic and transformative Quincy Jones song than "Thriller." First time we saw the Michael Jackson moonwalk!
Agreed. Thriller is honestly pretty meh, outside of being a song to play at Halloween. Billie Jean, like Smooth Criminal and Dirty Diana, is a song to rock out to year round.
The real genius of “Thriller” is that it is 4 minutes of warnings about horrible scary monsters and then bang: fooled you, all that was a clever ruse to get you to hold me tight, kiss me, I will take care of you, protect you, love you, thrill you, this is a pop song, I am the King of Pop, what were you expecting?
But Billie Jean is a perfect song. And identifiable immediately after the first kick and snare of the intro.
