Git changes are accumulative so not great for messengers because the server should only temporarily store the message until the other client has fetched it.

Don’t use centralized tools that can easily be blocked. This would’ve been basically impossible if they used delta chat

If you’re mostly looking to build a front end you can use the chatmail core library to handle all message delivery and profile creation. That way you instantly tap into the hundreds (if not thousands) of chatmail relays people are already running and as a bonus you can be compatible with other chatmail messengers like Delta Chat, Arcane Chat, etc.

You don’t even need root for most of what you want to do with android.

I want to install an app in September

“White Right: Meeting the Enemy” changed my mind on this. Multiple white suprematists in that documentary change their ways after they made a friend who is incompatible with their world view.

Vind Steam altijd lastig. Ja het is een monopolie maar tegelijkertijd één die de consument beschermt. Er is geen ander platform waar je altijd een refund kan krijgen als je niet tevreden bent met je aankoop (terwijl dit wettelijk verplicht is). Ook beschermt Steam tegen abandonware want als een game publisher de servers uit gooit of achteraf kernel level anti cheat toevoegt (zodat het spel niet meer werkt op je steam deck), dan krijg je bij Steam een refund van al je in game purchases omdat je die niet meer kunt gebruiken.

So you complain about the walled garden but the wall is actually a moat you dug yourself?

Even better: learn to use the alternatives so your employer isn’t forced to rent adobe products either

[–] amzd@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Yeah because newer version are always more stable

The changes I mentioned have already landed. Eg chatmail relays rejecting clear text emails is the default now.

I am an iOS maintainer yes.

Joined by XMPP-messengers Cheogram and Monocles, and supported by many contributing experts in the background, we are playfully addressing the no-billionaire-platforms challenge with webxdc, a container format and API for “chat-shared web apps”. Technically, webxdc apps are network-sandboxed HTML5 apps and instead of the HTTP protocol they use Peer-to-Peer send/receive APIs implemented by webxdc-capable messengers, rebasing relations between developers and users by saying

  • Bye Bye to surveillance capitalism: Users have both the code and the data of their web apps in their hands and benefit from end-to-end encrypted messaging not only during regular chat messaging but also during their private web app usage.

  • Bye Bye to user policing (logins, passwords, OAUTH, TOS and privacy policies etc.): Web app developers never obtain or touch any user data or user identities, and can have peace of mind of not being responsible for any data, and not having to program identity management and social discovery UIs. Messengers already provide it through arranging chat groups or rooms.

  • Bye Bye to depending on a corp or org that enshittifies: Messengers, as decentralized runners of webxdc apps in chat groups, can not hold web app developers, their users or data hostage. Consult Cory Doctorow’s “Ulysses Pact” for why this is a good idea.

This all sounds too good to be true, right? But what if another reality is possible by just stretching out our hands and grabbing it?
