Kraken is nice. You can get XMR directly if it’s available in your country, and you’ll have less withdrawal fees. Else, kraken charges about 0,20€ (equivalent in crypto) for withdrawal fees iirc
I would not call an OS where you can’t really start any "big" app a success. If you can’t do anything with it, what’s the point?
You can’t really degoogle a phone without sacrificing a lot of things. Most "degoogled" phones just use a compatibility layer that still gives google loads of infos
I would much rather have neither of Apple or google, but having to chose, I prefer Apple, at least they’re not on every website I visit
Btw you can "deapple" by jailbreaking but it becomes a huge pain, as degoogling is
Finding a good phone with good specs, a good OS that is elegant and doesn’t track you at an acceptable price with all the features just isn’t possible
But you still sadly have google services everywhere, popping up here and there, reminding you that they have control over apps
No, I don’t want to login with google or rate the app
They’re supposed to be hashed so that shouldn’t matter
Unless that’s the joke or something
Yes and no
Not that much against government but for everything else, it’s pretty good indeed
You nailed it, it’s all about the threat model
I watched this video because of you
It was interesting 👀
Made me want to taste test myself, am I doomed?
I mean, I know I do it, but yea, not a lot of people do. Most see it as investing or gambling
Sadly we're not really well represented, which leads to a lot of people calling all cryptos a "scam" which is just blatantly false.
Monero!
Bro went out of his way to be annoying
Let people buy the shit they want
I’ve already paid a lot of legal things and donated a lot with crypto. It’s pretty much the only way to pay online without giving away your personal info
At KFC they’re in a red plastic box of the same format. Can’t buy them cuz of reusable packaging laws in France, but that’s what I thought first when I saw this emoji
I was talking about crypto and blockchain in general
You can achieve relative anonymity by getting BTC by swapping with a better crypto like Monero
At least your money is safe, it’s what I mean by control. They can’t take it from you.
Except they only support the main blockchain for BTC which is really pricey
They could add support for LTC, DOGE, Lightning for BTC, and XMR and they would get a lot more customers
And you’re also forgetting that XMR is a really good choice to support for a pro privacy / anonymity company. Having crypto support without XMR for that kind of products makes little sense
BTC is okay, but XMR is a lot better
We need XMR support. Right now we’re just swapping XMR for BTC to pay anonymously
Or maybe just privacy and anonymity, low fees, not being controlled by external entities? You know, the thing it was built for.
Here's the coupon: MAILPLUSINTROACQ
Only applies for the first month of Mail Plus, for the monthly subscription
Got this coupon from their Brave marketing campaign
Here is the link for the official campaign: https://proton.me/l/mail-intro-offer (only works if you create a new account, but you can use the coupon I provided and I believe it should work for existing accounts)
Just a little post to make you aware that a recent update that allowed synchronized deletion of messages between devices (ex: deleting a message for yourself only on your computer will delete it on your phone as well) also applies to the feature to completely delete a conversation.
This previously didn’t happen and is a bit annoying as I just accidentally deleted a few conversations from both my phone and computer because I was used to deleting conversations on my computer (as they’re pretty much stored unencrypted and I don’t like it)
So sadly I thought this change wouldn’t affect this feature but it did, so that’s annoying, I just lost a ton of messages and media
Yup it’s pretty good, although I would’ve liked it better if they provided a good way to export the data to another app
I would like to know if any of you use an app or website/service to track your progress in series, or which movies you’ve seen.
The platform should also indicate where (streaming services) the movie/series is available
I’m currently using Justwatch but they probably sell a lot of user data, and some of the availability infos for some shows is wrong, and after contacting them to report this, they were of no help and didn’t understand what I asked. Seems like they only check the US catalog of the streaming services and don’t report it country per country, which is preferable.
Just a little announcement to say that Pixeldrain (a file sharing website) now accepts Monero for its prepaid subscription option. Minimum deposit is $10.
I’m not paid or anything, it’s just a website that I like that is developed by a solo developer (+ they open sourced a big part of the website). After begging for some time they accepted and added Monero to their BTCPay server.

Quelqu'un pourrait me conseiller un bon serveur Mastodon français ou francophone sans censure politique orientée ?
De mon expérience, les instances qui disent que seules les fausses infos et les discriminations sont bannies ont tout de même tendance à censurer certaines opinions. Le plus visé est évidemment les propos d'extrême droite, mais j'ai aussi trouvé des cas censurant toutes les opinions de droite ou d'extrême gauche.
Ma liste des serveurs qui semblent ou sont politiquement orientés et/ou pratiquent une censure politique et selon moi injuste sur certains sujets :
- piaille.fr
- Raison: "Est interdit toute tentative de retournement d’une oppression systémique. Par exemple : « racisme anti-blanc », « sexisme anti-homme », « hétérophobie », « cisphobie »."
- rivals.space
- Raison: J'ai été banni de l'instance et de leur discord lorsque j'ai demandé des explications. Mon post n'était pas spécialement orienté. Je peux fournir plus d'infos si nécessaire. Visiblement ne pas être d'accord avec des anti-capitalistes est interdit.
- h4.io
- Raison: "Les tentatives de retournement d'oppressions systémiques ("racisme anti-blanc, sexisme anti-homme, hétérophobie, cisphobie, etc) sont proscrites."
- mastoot.fr
- Raison: Toutes les idées de droite sont interdites. A éviter. ("Pas de diffusion des idées/propagande d’extrême droite, des droites et LReM")
- tooter.social
- Raison: "Pas de diffusion des idées d’extrême droite"
- toot.aquilenet.fr
- Raison: "Les propos, écrits, idées d'extrême-droite prônant l'intolérance ne sont pas bienvenu⋅es. Il en va de même pour le confusionnisme." -> en soit rien de perturbant, mais ça laisse penser que la modération est orientée, et que la censure est très fortement possible.
- "Pas de prosélytisme, sous quelque forme qu'il soit." -> peut laisser penser qu'il y aura une censure sur les débats et discussion religieuses, spécifiquement sur les pro-religion.
- mastodon.zaclys.com
- Raison: "Sexe, violence, extrémismes en tous genres, et trolls ne sont pas les bienvenus"
- tooting.ch
- Raison: Certaines règles peuvent laisser penser à une censure de certaines opinions politique, à voir.
- travelpandas.fr
- Raison: "Pas de propagande" -> au sens strict ou large ? Tout embellissement ou avis positif envers un/des sujets politiques peut-il être considéré comme propagande et donc être censuré ?
- tchafia.be
- Raison: "Est interdit toute tentative de retournement d’une oppression systémique. Par exemple : « racisme anti-blanc », « sexisme anti-homme », « hétérophobie », « cisphobie »."
On a donc 10 sur 13 serveurs français dans la catégorie "Général" sur https://joinmastodon.org/fr/servers qui sont dans cette liste. Je trouve ça plutôt alarmant.
I can’t seem to find how to delete or edit posts from the app. I manage to edit and delete comments properly though.
Browse posts, click on one, save it.

I have 2 accounts on 2 separate instances, but I don't get how to switch the currently used account in the settings, I'm stuck on the second one I added
