i think the DPRK is the only on that list i don't hold positive opinions about, or really any at all. everything i "know" on it is typical western propaganda so i try to keep my opinions open
yeah i've had my eye on hexbear for a while. if Lemmy weren't so resource intensive i'd run a personal instance myself, but looks like hexbear is probably where i'll end up (assuming they accept me :p)
looking more and more like I'll be making an alt on another instance then... :p
i can understand being dubious of WhatsApp given it's closed source and owned by Facebook. but Telegram and WeChat? Both closed source and with very questionable encryption? Signal is the only clear answer.
also side-note, WhatsApp audits and analyses have all come back confirming it's at least deploying the same end-to-end encryption as Signal, though stores a bit more metadata. so Facebook knows when / who you're messaging. Telegram / WeChat are much worse in this regard. as an anti western imperialist i'd still choose WhatsApp over Telegram / WeChat for comms. though ideally none of the above for anything important
oh i had no idea about this, yikes. and you're absolutely right re: mastodon
man "leaked private messages" is such a weak fucking excuse in the face of transphobia. @[email protected] you realize you're just alienating a huge fucking number of comrades? not just trans people, but all those that rightfully stand with us too.
edit: nutomic you absolutely can come back from this if you don't double down. accept your shit, and work on it. and you know what that would be great to see, there's not enough of that in the world.
if not then @[email protected] and other core devs, i think you have a tough decision to make. i absolutely do not envy you. though do keep in mind that handling this correctly will solidify even tighter community support behind the Lemmy project.
we need more good comrades behind ActivityPub development :p
china is at least giving me hope on the climate change front
are you sure the volume the sqlite database file is in has the correct permissions? not just in the container, but on the host, does the appropriate docker user id have permission to see what's in the folder? i've been caught out myself on that before when files in the folder had correct permissions, but the containing folder for them couldn't be accessed :p
of course, we must keep supplying the source of their misery, how else can we then help them out of their misery?
what's your setup for this out of interest? are you running a Dev environment under tmux or something? 🤔
so this is a warning for the warning he's about to make
