As a parent who dont like id requirements but who also wants my children away from social media, this is my take:
Social tech does not require a tech solution, but instead a social solution, because social media is a social problem. My children has restricted access, no accounts etc. But that helps little when all the other parents believe social media to be fine. A law clearly sets a social norm, which apparently 30 % of parents understand.
Ok thanks. "Even MIT" is something i agree on. And the author decides of course. But this means that big corp can 'steal' the code. It also means you can build extensions and other stuff that are not MIT. And then it gets muddy.
Anyways didnt mean to make this about license. Sorry.
For me aegis is by far the best. Simple. Encrypted. Backup. It's saved to a syncthing folder. Passwords are in bitwarden for simpme stuff but keepassxc is great. And also synced via syncthing.
Dhh is also a guy who fights apple and google and Microsofts. A guy who says the cloud is stupid, a guy who says American companies will do as instructed by the orange government hence Europe needs to build their own infrastructure and companies.
I am ok with that. Never heard or read about him being a conspiracy nut
Thx... Couldnt really find anything about him - other than "anti human rights" - without context or explanation. But I did find his own post describing his motivations as (my paraphrasing) leftish anti establishment.. i am fine with that. I'm even in support. But again - choose your instance...
(The only problem is lemmy hardcoded slur words... But I couldn't find a list of those slurs, so difficult to have an opinion about specifically. And in any case, if somebody wants to create the best social software on the planet, and hardcode banning of the word 'snuffle' into to the platform, because they have issues with that word being used, thats more than ok. That's extremely cool).
When I installed radicale last, i had problems with auth and exposing it. I think either I misunderstood something or it was left as an exercise for the reader. Anyways...
Do any of you receive a password reset mail? I don't. So I fear somebody might have already changed /taken over my account? Even though i do use two factor auth?
I did receive the initial notice
I did not receive the reset mail i asked for. Not in spam either. I have checked that the emailadress is identical to the one i received the original notice for.
I think it's an excellent post worth reading. Open Source entails collaborating with the whole world. Any code base is simply to big to audit from the start, but all incremental code can be audited, and you can disable stuff you don't need etc.
For me, the post makes me trust cryptpad more than I did before.
And yes. Cryptpaf = onlyoffice, but still relevant I think
