proton mail

Insanely based

[–] [email protected] 29 points 8 months ago (1 children)

It's mostly because it doesn't have any sort of location protection, so all of us can log on at the same time.

Make sure to donate via snail mail.

Harder to randomly delete an account that has money in it.

a honeypot is a service run by feds pretending to be private or something criminals could use and then storing the data and using it to prosecute the criminals later on after farming a bunch of data

here's an example of a huge honeypot

Here is an alternative Piped link(s):

Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.

I'm open-source; check me out at GitHub.

Honey pot was explained by imkali.

Glowie means undercover fed/cop. Think it references them standing out so obviously it's like they are glowing.

smh means ~~so much hate~~ "shaking my head" and is an expression of frustrated anger.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 8 months ago (1 children)

doesn't smh mean "shaking my head"?

[–] [email protected] 8 points 8 months ago

Smh means shaking my head lol

The "glowie" reference is from Terry A. Davis, TempleOS', uh, esoteric developer.

The quote is "CIA n****** glow in the dark", government agents have been called glowies ever since.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 8 months ago (1 children)

He was such an amazingly talented individual, ruined by incessantly degrading mental health. It was so painful to see.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 8 months ago

Indeed. RIP Terry :(

[–] [email protected] 4 points 8 months ago

glowie - undercover fed, terry davis reference (templeos dev)

honeypot - fake services run in order to catch people

[–] [email protected] 11 points 8 months ago

That would be legendary.

I’d put chances at 1%?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 8 months ago

No it isn't

https://www.reddit.com/r/ProtonMail/comments/14demhj/debunking_proton_and_ciansa_fake_news/

For a while, there have been rumors alleging essentially that Proton Mail or Proton VPN are CIA/NSA honeypots. It's an incredible claim, and while it’s generally not worth debunking conspiracy theories, this one makes it pretty easy due to how bad the claims are, so let’s do it once and for all. (...)

The one thing you can legitimately criticize Protonmail for is that they make real damn sure to let you know they also offer VPN services for a subscription and whatnot.

my thoughts exactly :3

[–] [email protected] 46 points 8 months ago (2 children)

Is it okay if I share my ideas as an email attachment in the form of a 75 page pdf?

[–] [email protected] 18 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

be my guest

[–] [email protected] 11 points 8 months ago

Need to know this as well

[–] [email protected] 39 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Hello, I have an idea for a "meme". Who should I email regarding this?

[–] [email protected] 18 points 8 months ago

It says it in the title

this image is a screenshot of a Blender viewport; you can see the object origin (orange dot, left) and the 3D cursor (red and white circle, bottom left)

[–] [email protected] 7 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Ah! I see. I never got the hang of using blender

[–] [email protected] 1 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Press F12 to actually render.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 8 months ago

Oh I didn't make this LOL. Sorry for the confusion

Hello fellow humans in my phone. I am currently sitting on a toilet having a bad day. I hope you all have a good day tho. 🦀

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago

I hope your day is now better and that you’re not still sitting on the toilet.

Just wanted to ask this out of curiosity: are you accepting encrypted e-mail?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 8 months ago (1 children)

I really don't know. Is that something special we need to set up?

[–] [email protected] 9 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago) (1 children)

Nothing special to set up if the other side also has ProtonMail. If another ProtonMail user sends you a Mail, it's E2EE by default.

If you want people that don't have ProtonMail to send you encrypted mails, you need to share your Public Key somewhere.

You can get your Public Key this way:

  1. Settings

  1. Encryption and keys -> Export public key. And then share it here. DO NOT SHARE THE PRIVATE KEY. Only the Public Key.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 8 months ago

Got it. I think we'll stick with regular emails. We're lemmy mods not plugs

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago

I think that's very cool but I think it would be even better if Lemmy had its own native modmail system like Reddit. Hopefully one day.

Can't figure out how to post on Voyager. Anyone else know how?
