Signal forks can have unexpected behaviours like retaining deleted messages and also they don’t get updated at the same rate that Signal get updated.
There are ways to save messages before they are deleted even if the stock app is used. Do not ever rely on this feature to work in a "safe" way.
Every couple of years I hear a story about hackers disturbing signal with backdoors, which would be impossible or very hard to be done If they blocked third party clients. (Ex: 1)
That is a problem the users who prefer 3rd party clients have to deal with. Obviously if you care enough to not use the official build, you of cause have to take care of using a trustworthy source. That is not "your problem" though.
The amount of people who use third party Signal clients are very few anyway.
That sounds a lot like "I don't use it, so none else needs it either" argument. In my opinion, none of your arguments above are a good reason to combat 3rd party clients.
Not in all situations. And in a way a user will not be aware of. The service or website can define what type of passkey is allowed (based in attestation). You may not be able to acutally use your "movable" keys because someone else decided so. You will not notice this until you actually face such a service. And when that happens, you can be sure that the average user will not understand what ia going on. Not all passkeys are equal, but that fact is hidden from the user.
In addition, Huawei now blocks sideloading Android apps to promote its ecosystem growth.
Well looks like I'm never going to get a device from this manufacturer then.
Ja in der Tat erstaunlich. Eventuell wird beim Thema Mord ja doch ein bisschen ermittelt.
Here a a few things that I miss from OsmAnd:
- adding more than a handful of routing points is tedious
- you cannot plan partially or fully independent from existing roads
- no way to save and restore a planned trip
- no overlays for hill shading or incline visualization. Very useful for assessing the effort of a route.
- no public transport support. Very useful for planning a trip with transitions.
- no rain radar
- satellite view
Zitat aus der Statistik:
Auffällig ist in diesem Zusammenhang, dass die Zahl der Menschen, die mit einem Pedelec tödlich verunglückten, je 1000 Pedelec-Unfälle mit Personenschaden in den letzten Jahren deutlich zurückgegangen ist: 2014 waren es noch 17,4 Getötete je 1 000 Pedelec-Unfälle (gegenüber 7,9 Getöteten im Jahr 2023). Auch dies ist unter anderem auf das sinkende Alter der Verunglückten zurückzuführen.
Es ist also doch möglich proportionale Angaben zu machen. Ob es wirklich am Alter liegt wurde würde ich aber mal als Spekulation einordnen.
Organic Maps is my goto solution for car navigation because it is very quick, responsive and does not require an high end phone. It just works. However for anything more advanced than that (e.g. live location sharing or recording, planning a hiking trip, navigating mountain bike trails, contributing to OpenStreemMap), OSMAnd is still without contender.
Du hast natürlich völlig recht, bei Diebstahl geht das Diebesgut ja bekanntlich in den Besitz des Diebes über. Bei verschlossenen Türen kann man ebenfalls nichts machen. Schade um das schöne Rad dann.
Die Angabe gehört direkt mit aufs Preisschild. Dass man für jedes Modell eine Webrecherche starten muss, um dieses essentielle Detail herauszufinden ist eine Frechheit. Musste damals beim Kauf meines Bikes lange suchen, am Ende waren nur zwei Bikehersteller übrig die a) überhaupt Angaben gemacht haben und b) dann auch wirklich mehr als 120kg hatten.
Anstatt sich mit der Versicherungswirtschaft oder der untätigen Exekutive auseinanderzusetzen sollte man heutzutage lieber selbst sein Recht durchsetzten. GPS und Bluetooth machen es möglich.
Availability still very limited:

Sad to see Mozilla being managed into the ground, betraying their principles and selling their users.
That is not entirely correct. The reported found the app using permissions that are not covered by the manifest. It also found the app being capable to execute arbitrary code send by temu. So it cannot be clearly answered if the app can utilize these permissions or not. Obviously they would not ship such an exploit with the app directly.
This is your best option. I did do movie nights with friends during the pandemic in a similar way, but I used OBS Studio to create the stream and Monaserver to stream it to all users. I did not know VLC can handle the streaming to users directly, making this dead simple to setup without additional software. You just need to know how to configure your router to allow the needed port forwarding.
Wenn mit "möglichst vielen Menschen" wirklich alle Menschen gemeint sind und nicht bestimmte Gruppen, dann sind diese beiden Ziele zwei Seiten der selben Medaille.
Agreed. From a privacy perspective, it is a lot safer to run the app in an environment where you have admin control. E.g. disable when not in use, block access to sensitive device information, limit background and network activity as much as possible.
I'd second this. The organization behind it (https://calyxinstitute.org/about) is a long established non profit, their portfolio covers various cool projects. The vpn client itself is basically a rebranded version of https://f-droid.org/packages/se.leap.bitmaskclient, it it is nothing special.
