Chat control is back on track.... again
  • You need to mark sarcasm with /s.

    If this is not a joke: the US has the worst privacy protection laws on this planet. Laws in China are almost better. And ironically the worst laws for freedom aswell. There is a reason why we have the GDPR laws in the EU that prohibits any user data transfer to US servers.

    Freetube is the best way to watch YouTube
  • Am I the only one that hates third-party clients for Desktop? They all have terrible UI and UX. Firefox + UBlock + Youtube is the way to go. For the phone it's NewPipe or Grayjay.

    How do I get rid of these "various artists" and headphones default images? I'm losing my mind...
  • Thanks for your response. I just ended up removing the logo and backdrop image alltogether by adding this to the custom css:

    .detailLogo, .backdropImage  {
        display: none;
    }
    

    I will definitely look at beets.io. Sounds like a useful tool to organize my library mess :)

    I have no idea how that happened or when it happened. Now every single album in my music collection has this background image of a random headphone and this "Various Artists" microphone picture on top.

    How do I get rid of this?

    Telegram founder's arrest part of larger investigation into alleged child exploitation and drug trafficking 'complicity'
  • Telegram was never safe because it's not encrypted. Use something encrypted and open-source, so you don't need to rely on their promises and service.

    Signal is the most popular alternative. Others are Threema, Matrix, Session.

    Why are there no bots that post Reddit content on Lemmy?
  • Are you trying to lecture me on what I'm doing? I know very well myself what I'm doing. I'm here for the 5 communities there are and on Reddit for the rest.

    Founder and CEO of Telegram messaging service arrested in France
  • The KDE would need to intercept every single message from start to finish because of forward secrecy. Mass surveillance of such sort would have been noticed by now, even if only 0.01% of people check their safety number with QR code or manual confirmation.

    MITM attacks on specific high-level targets would be still possible of course. But if you consider yourself a high-level target outside of mass surveillance you can just check your safety number before initiating a conversation. Because of forward secrecy, you only need to check that once!

    But all of that aside, Telegram has none of these things. Telegram is straight-up unencrypted with their default chats and group chats. Telegram is absolute dogshit.

    How Telegram's Founder Pavel Durov Became a Culture War Martyr [404]
  • Telegram is not an encrypted messenger with a focus on privacy. Ergo it's not an attack on chat encryption and privacy. Why do people not seem to get that?!

  • I want to spin up Navidrome on a seperate machine running TrueNas but I'm wondering how to do that. Specifically, I noticed that a lot of the data including ratings and favorites are per-user. That means I'd need to migrate the whole database and somehow manage to point all music files to the correct location on my Nas and so on. Is there an easier way to accomplish that?

    Genuine question.

    There are tons of niche subs on Reddit that aren't on Lemmy or don't have enough people posting. Lemmy could benefit from bots that automatically post Reddit content. Why is this not a thing?

    With all that negativity being posted, I think this isn't said enough: Been getting into Ukrainian rap recently, specifically Alina Pash and Krechet. I don't understand a single word (I'm German) but I noticed how pleasing the language and music sounds. Just came here to say that.

    If you have more music recommendations please share :)
