  1. Use DoT
  2. Use Librewolf
  3. TOR has been compromised, use it sparingly.

Understand the fight. We have three major pipelines for leakage of inferences/data on the internet:

  1. IP
  2. Metadata
  3. Content we produce
MigratingtoLemmy,

The NSA has always had multiple 0-days for TOR, but that’s beside the point. The current rumour is that the NSA controls more than half of the traffic on the TOR network, courtesy of them owning a massive number of high-performance nodes.

I’m going to read more on how i2p works, but if I see more NSA involvement I’m bucking out of that too

How many of you run a Linux phone (Pine64, Librem etc) as your daily driver?

I was going through Pine64’s page again after I found the latest KDE announcement. With that said, I seem to see a lot of issues with firmware on the Pine, whilst the Librem is just plain out of budget for me. Was interested in how many people here run a Linux mobile as a daily driver, and how has your experience been?...

MigratingtoLemmy,

My problem is the lack of availability of custom ROMs on new devices like the newest OnePlus and ASUS. Not the fault of the maintainers but it is what it is. I don’t want to be locked to Pixel hardware because come what may I will never trust Google on a single thing

MigratingtoLemmy,

I’m waiting for devices to get the 5.10 kernel or the ones after it, so I can run supported KernelSU builds and take my life into my own hands.

MigratingtoLemmy,

Which recent devices other than the Pixels are supported?

MigratingtoLemmy,

Thank you, I should have mentioned my threat model and needs more clearly.

I am looking to scan my own posts/comments for stylometry statistics, for the most part, but PII would be nice. I’ll deal with the browser-agent, Cookies, IP etc.

Threat model would likely be to prevent people who might be wanting to link my identity with my online persona. Obviously, the government is excluded since they can just mine the IP from Lemmy mods and get to me. This is someone who is interested in my identity and will use FOSS/some proprietary tools to link my identities

MigratingtoLemmy,

TBH it’s not proprietary either. I’m OK with such licensing because it helps the developers fuck the clowns over who try to take their code without even a thanks. The source is available to audit if you’d like. That’s what I really care about.

MigratingtoLemmy,

Don’t be friends with people using Apple. Problem solved /s

MigratingtoLemmy,

I would have liked more technicalities, but wonderful write-up. Thanks

Louis Rossman/FUTO's YouTube app, GrayJay, now supports Sponsorblock... and shames you if you use it

Seriously this was very surprising. I’ve been experimenting with GrayJay since it was announced and I largely think it’s a pretty sweet app. I know there are concerns over how it isn’t “true open source” but it’s a hell of a lot more open than ReVanced. Plus, I like the general design and philosophy of the app....

MigratingtoLemmy,

I wish there was an add-on that could fake a view for the sponsored segment for the creator but skip it for the user. I.e. every time the user skips a sponsored segment, the extension adds a view for the sponsored segment for the creator, so they get paid whilst we skip their segment.

I'm currently downloading a show that is on a service to which I subscribe

I have a Galaxy Tab S7 and for a trip to Spain I downloaded some stuff to watch on the flight. When I got on the plane none of the stuff downloaded on Disney+ would play. Maybe an issue with downloading to the SD card? I don’t know, but regardless Disney offers SD card as a download destination so they should make sure it is...

MigratingtoLemmy,

I use YouTube to watch clips of films I might like, and pirate them.

I use YouTube Music to discover music, and pirate them too.

I don’t subscribe to services. Why should I?

MigratingtoLemmy,

Extremely. When things like your DE starts being dependent on systemd, you don’t want to replace it.

I had posted about the monopoly that systemd has, and was down voted to oblivion.

Z-Library Blog: "Unprecedented seizure of our domains with books on rare languages" (z-library.se)

Today we are forced to share some sad news - yesterday many of our domains were seized again. We should highlight that the majority of the seized domains were not mirrors of the Z-Library website. Instead, they were separate sub-projects, containing only books in rare languages of the world, and their blocking is perplexing. For...

MigratingtoLemmy,

Install Slackware and purchase random card from aliexpress, and you might just have to.

And once you do that, remember to de-blob your kernel (and re-write every piece of non-free software, although I suppose Slackware doesn’t tolerate proprietary software much) and statically link it to exactly the binaries you need.

Comes close to customisation but leaves out the pain of having to write drivers.

MigratingtoLemmy,

If I utilise a DNS provider who supports ECH (mullvad) with a browser that supports ECH (Librewolf) will I still not be able to access certain websites? I haven’t come across a website blocked by my ISP yet so don’t know

MigratingtoLemmy,

If you just want a Seedbox, head over to giga-rapid.

If you wanted a compute box which happens to pirate, you’re going to have to alternate between providers periodically, change accounts, cards etc. I would personally like to have an automated setup to spin up machines across VPSes and accounts (some Ansible, Shell and cron should do it) but haven’t got there yet

MigratingtoLemmy,

I sit and feel horrible about myself, mentally punishing myself for all of the mistakes. About an hour or two later, my mind gives up, and I become pragmatic.

MigratingtoLemmy,

I think I’m the only one here who likes mainstream J-pop.

Anybody for Aimer, ReoNa, LiSa, Yorushika, Minami, TK from Ling Tosite Sigure, nZk, Uru, Tielle, Yuuri?

No? I suppose I’m alone in my listening habits. I do like baroque music though
