xilliah, in ProtonMail Complied with 5,957 Data Requests in 2022 - Still Secure and Private?

Well I’m a customer and I think it’s fine if the requests are legitimate. The question then of course is what is legitimate.

crandlecan,

Arresting XR rebels… So jo, it’s not legitimate at all

belated_frog_pants,

Its always about petty shit like piracy. You’d wish it was all them catching CSAM creators but thats a sliver of it. They’d be catching more rich dudes if it was.

Personally I like Connect even though it’s not FOSS because it’s layout is similar to RiF.

0ops,

I didn’t even realize that it wasn’t, tbh. There’s no ads or purchases or anything

Ads in the feed now? Yikes, that’s reason enough for me to switch before I’m forced to update it.

Ugurcan, in Are there alternatives to google scholar and google patents?

openalex.org helps sometimes

Thanks for the warning, switching to Jerboa.

Voyager, eternity, jerboa in that order

Use foss apps

Connect does not have ads

moonpiedumplings, in Are there alternatives to google scholar and google patents?

In my experience, best with science, math, and technology stuff:

arxiv.org

But I’ve found it to be very good for finding scientific articles.

FriendBesto,

It is fairly good for what it is, lots of things missing but I will certainly take it. Use it often. Recommend.

As always, use free software. Look for Lemmy clients in F-Droid. Voyager is a good one.

It’s always struck me as a bit odd that people choose to use a paid proprietary app to access a free and open source social media platform which is developed and hosted entirely by volunteers based on donations. Whilst I don’t have a problem with people making money off of Lemmy apps, making them proprietary and with ads seems against the spirit of Lemmy

radiowaves are free, radio sets aren’t.

Transmitters aren’t free

ohlaph,

It might be greed or to offset their server costs. Or both.

Sync Pro (paid) Jerboa (free)

dandu3,

Sync pro is an absolute ripoff.

I had it for reddit and I’m not buying it again

Jerboa. It lacks some features, but it’s the official app and it’s also pretty minimalistic with its material you UI. Other than that Thunder is pretty good. They’re both FOSS.

harry_balzac,

I used Thunder at first but it would crash frequently. Why? I don’t know. It’d just stop working. Very frustrating because it is otherwise very good.

Switched to Jerboa after a couple of weeks and it’s been great.

Eternity.

PREACH, after using infinity for reddit for years this is the only app that I can ever be comfortable with. It’s genuinely amazing, thank you to the person who ported it.

Gooey0210,
