It’s a different thing. I don’t remember what exactly it is though.

Afaik that feature (or at least one of the implementations) was discontinued in one of the recent versions of Android.

Smash.

The kernel is now geopolitical. That says it all.

Actually there is not much reliance on the mainstream kernel. Forks work just fine.

2 bad decisions at once.

I like the compass

Meh I think it’s subjective. I don’t like the direction they are going (not in terms of getting rid of Microsoft).

Tell me you’re a Nix fan without telling me you’re a Nix fan.

Impossible. Everyone has money problems (or income optimization problems) and with FOSS it’s even more obvious.

More reliance on something is always bad. If the component dies, becomes closed source, implements telemetry etc it will be harder to replace it.

Bad idea.

I like to consider opinionated forums and social media different things so I wouldn’t agree with this one.

Not sure why you’re beeing downvoted.

Fediverse people.

and allow fediverse users to comment on it as well.

Well that surely is beneficial if you want a lot of heated engagement and rather questionable thoughts in your comment section lol.

MSL that is.

Why?

If I had evidence then I would show it. Unfortunately at that time I was pretty positive about the society so I didn’t save any evidence or took it any seriously. I know it makes my accusations much less valid but it is what it is. I understand your skepticism because of that. Asking for proof is always a good thing.

Well with all due respect, all aggressive leftists say so. I have a different opinion that I am going to stick to.

It’s also more complex to implement for large groups, unless you mean only dm’s.

This statement clearly shows that you’re not familiar with Revolt very much. They only “wanted” to implement encryption for direct messages as it’s practically impossible for a large group chat to verify each other’s keys. However Revolt’s team is still acting strange and I will be bold to assume many of them have mental issues (as I have talked to them in the past). I do not trust that project and I consider their official disrespect of certain protected characteristics (such as nationality and religion) a massive red flag.

Then how about E2EE? They don’t really rush to implement that either. And I think the reason is political (aka enforcing their left wing ToS).
