The bot might just be more humane than any Israeli official

that’s… false?

There is default encryption and you can enable stricter and contact storage and force highest transport encryption in the settings.
It also supports PGP

Posteo?

I don’t think you understand what “open source” means then?

To put it simply: a programme using a license that guarantees certain freedoms.

Chromium uses such a license: the 3-Clause BSD license

please don’t insult the FSF like that by comparing it to the LF…

The FSF might be unpragmatic and (thus) often horribly out of date, but it’s neither opportunistic nor engaged in corporate bootlickery.

At some times it can even be dogmatic, but you can at least mostly depend on it keepig it’s spine and vision!
(even if I partially disagree with it, as it’s doctrine does not take political economy — and thus the root problem that is capitalism — into account)

Isn’t that objectively a false statement?

yk you can backup your passphrase-protected gpg keys in one simple copy/paste command?

We’re still preparing the notes for this release, and will post them here when they are ready. Please check back later.

🔥🔥🔥

Happy to help :)

(especially when it comes awesome libre software :p)

does it make it so that it’s only “ready” to be triggered by ntfy when it would otherwise poll the server on its own very frequently (so you end up actually saving some battery)?

That’s how I understand it, yes. You change the behaviour of the app by configuring it to use UnifiedPush, so there is less background usage to restrict

Thx for the kind words!

I left the background service on for all the messengers, it’s not like the Unifiedpush ones have anything major to use anyway. This increased the reliability and peace of mind + they never show up as major battery users for me either

it’s rly cool that you’re self hosting this stuff! though I can imagine running your PC 24/7 just for that is quite annoying

also yeah, upstream support for UnifiedPush in the clients for both Signal and Telegram would be great…

But I can imagine that it’s not rly a priority for them.
(I’m not actually skilled enough (yet) to help implement that though either)

So you have set it up over Mollysocket? Do you use your own or a remote instance?

I just haven’t got around to setting it up myself yet… (+ I don’t have my own server yet, so I can’t self host :/)

I can recommend Molly for Signal and Mercurygram for Telegram. Both support UnifiedPush too!

Most libre applications implement their own websockets for this. EDIT: some propriety spyware like WhatsApp use those too, can confirm myself, as I unfortunately have to use it on my GrapheneOS owner profile (which ofc doesn’t have the sandboxed GPlay services installed; I could technically use it on my profile for personal proprietary apps, but it would be a major pita) ENDEDIT
(unfortunately Proton uses only Google FCM in most of their apps and doesn’t publish them on F-Droid or Accrescent)

However, those can take a strain on your battery since every websocket maintains it’s own connection.
This is where UnifiedPush in combination with either nfty or Sunup comes in
(EDIT: I use ntfy myself, also Sunup seems to be quite new, so it might come with some quirks; EDITEND there is also a plugin for your own Nextcloud)

Since Unifiedpush maintains only one connection for every app using it, this takes quite a bit less charge to upkeep
(it’s explained quite well on their website, which is hyperlinked)

If you are looking for Unifiedpush support on Signal: Molly is a hardened fork of the client and does support it through Mollysocket

EDIT: If you use Telegram there is Mercurygram. As for Matrix clients, I use Element and Schildichat. All these support UnifiedPush

Die Würde des Menschen kann vom Gesetz nicht verletzt werden, wenn das Gesetz definiert, was unter Würde fällt an die Stirn tipp

This might be a good opportunity to try one of universal blue’s distros

They are kinda “just set and forget” atomic distros, improving on Fedora Silverblue/Kinoite with usability improvements

Is there any reason to use this over Librewolf?

average Phoronix forum user unfortunately 💀

but Phoronix’ journalism is good

(which is why I only read the articles through my RSS readers and never go on the site or associated forums)

that’s the thing though, it strips you of the options the four essential freedoms provide.

and imo it’s not rly an argument. Libre software is free as in freedom and not necessarily free as in beer. You could license it under the (A)GPL, charge for downloads in the Play store or for compiled binaries on ur website and ask for donations on F-Droid.

You could even do a freemium version where some features are locked in the binaries you distribute and need a license from ur website or smth (for those who don’t want to use Google Play). (iirc SD Maid 2/SE does this)
