Would you buy "self-hosted in a box" hardware?
  • The fact that it's an option that even remotely works is my point. They sell hardware. They don't support software. The community does that. There is something to be gained from having a uniform platform for learning self hosting responsibly.

    A Raspberry pi isn't particularly great at any one thing. It's greatest strength comes in bundling everything you need in a box at an affordable price. Once you know where your pain points are then you can build/design a system that overcomes those shortcomings.

    Having a starter kit would be an easy way to get more people in the space. Would it cost $35 of course not. Level1Techs made their KVM to meet their own requirements and then the community benefits. To me, this project has that kind of energy. Or at least the potential for it.

    US: Alaska man busted with 10,000+ child sex abuse images despite his many encrypted apps
  • That's what I said. The person I replied to said that all messages are encrypted* with the asterisk being only if you specifically enable it. I clarified that it doesn't apply to group chats though. I don't use Telegram so the loss of functionality is actually a bigger deal to me than the argument around E2EE. Can you explain what features are lost when you enable it? It's a messaging app so I'm curious what you sacrifice for E2EE.

  • There is so much nuance to this argument that this conversation just glosses over. Replace "big crypto" with banks and it's the same thing.

  • We also might be able to fill in some gaps in the internet archive that way someday.

    I don't think we will have the internet archive long enough to find out
