Just buy a loot card from the TCG and get a cooler mount

Care to expand? They seem like one of the best video game companies out there, even though they are traditional Japanese patriarchy

Thats literally happened to me on mac and windows both

Both products have flaws I dont like, so im ok with either stance tbh.

Is Linux perfect? No

Is windows better than linux? No

Is mac better than windows? No

Are your specific issues a reason normal users shouldnt use Linux? No

SMS is bad, and on the way out. Besides that, I barely noticed when Signal stopped allowing SMS.

I guess in some circles it matters, but seems like most people use messengers nowadays.

Im surprised there are zero calls to any official matrix server(s) from those instances.

Not even random API for metadata, update status, etc?

Telemtry is a word. It only means as much as it means in each context, and without full context it means little atm.

Do you have a resource where I could learn more about what data Matrix considers telemetry?

No clue, not familiar with Matrix to that level.

Do you have numbers without?

WhatsApp supposedly uses Signal protocol.

Why is THAT not blocked? Certainly they wouldnt roll their own encryption and bypass Signal security protocols after having Moxie come in, right? Right???

Tiktok is being targeted at a harsher clip than American companies and thats a fallacy somehow?

You’re not aware that Biden signed the ban already?

A fine like that is just “the cost of doing business”.

Tiktok is facing a nationwide ban.

Please dont tell me that was an earnest argument.

Easier to emphasize a boogeyman instead of solving an actual problem, I guess

Whatsapp uses the Signal protocol but they have also been known to read as much metadata as possible.

The creator of Signal helped FB implement the code, but ive been afraid that the mega Corp rolled their own crypto and superceded the protections put in place from Moxie.

That said, I dont know if its possible to have a 3rd partty front end anymore for WhatsApp.

When do we focus on Meta, Google, Twitter, Kick, etc as well?

All these companies do the same exact data harvesting.

So you know its not single device, yet still said it was?

Honorable mention to Matrix as well

Once again focusing on the “villain” Chinese company, instead of performing sweeping reforms that will actually stop this shit from happening.

Because im sure that Google, Meta, YT, and other American sites DEFINITELY dont do the same things…

Im also wondering how the fediverse is toxic for black people.
