HI @Horizon_Innovations@linuxrocks.online

The Dutch ministry of justice paid for a #privacy test of Office 365, finding a series of issues. Just one of these: 6 different companies receive user data including file names, without even a privacy policy.

#RiotWeb sort of works on the onion version of #Freedombone. Using it on mobile is extremely challenging though. It's likely that it will only federate with other onion homeservers.

You can't use RiotX with the onion version, because it doesn't have socks5 proxy capability.

This is where XMPP clearly wins. Use of Matrix with Tor was always an afterthought at best.

If you only upload to one platform you're setting yourself up for failure

RT @eevblog@twitter.com

Youtube have deleted an electronics repair channel "jpdylon", Jordan Pier.
Anyone got a link to any of his content on other platforms?

AGAIN: Every creator needs to be on other platforms like @LBRYio@twitter.com

Just released Auto Encrypt Localhost version 5.2.2

You can now access your secure local server over HTTPS from any other device on your local area network using its IPv4 address.

This feature will make it into the next release of Site.js, allowing you to test with multiple devices over your LAN without need to expose your server over the Internet via a service like ngrok.

Enjoy!

We are looking for musicians using PeerTube to publish their works. Do you know any? Or any PereTube specializing on music? Any channels, collections...?

We are collecting information in this topic created by @lwr82

Apparently a few people who follow me are interested in or planning on starting old school forums.

Reply here if you are, lets see if we can get a little group together.

Boosts please.

It's finally here!

Next: "we can’t go back to a pre-AMP web to start over. The discussions about whether the AMP project should be removed, or discouraged for a different framework, have long passed."

Yes we can. And no they haven't.

I expect more from you, EFF. Geez.

#AMP isn't necessary to the web, and EFF shouldn't be implying that it is.

You can improve page load speeds by caching, removing JavaScript bloat, trackers and ads.

"More than 4,000 Android apps that use Google's cloud-hosted Firebase databases are 'unknowingly' leaking sensitive information on their users, including their email addresses, usernames, passwords, phone numbers, full names, chat messages and location data."

Can't believe I've not seriously looked at @nextcloud hosting options until now!

Great #Linux integration (calendar and contacts just works in @gnome after logging in once) - #Dropbox is so janky in comparison - some providers are price competitive if you look around eg Hetzner (data's under Germany privacy laws), and of course #selfhosting is also an option
