Die Linke is the most leftwing party in the current and upcoming governments. Though, because of how right-shifted the overton window is in this country, that doesn't mean they're radicals. Their policies are still basically just social democracy. They're also basically the party of east German cities. The east German countryside votes for the AfD.

And the Greens in Germany are a center-right party, further right thank the SPD. They're very militaristic, extremely pro-Israel, in favor of repressing democratic protests at home... They're not that far from the label of "eco-fascist", except in practice without the "eco" part. Still, they get a lot of votes from well-meaning moderates who don't look to hard (or at all) at what the party stands for or dies and just vote for them because of the vibes.

Die Linke are nowhere close to tankies, what are you even talking about. They are a center left party.

Yeah I guess Obscura does obfuscation between the client and entry node, which is where it matters

Understood, thanks. Seems like most people are doing it this way, keeping the app installed. Do you have to restore a backup when you re-log in? I'm always losing messages when that happens

Mullvad already has that. It's called "WireGuard Obfuscation" in the settings. Obscura just seems to have a different implementation based on similar principles.

Ah got it, thanks. It's not an ideal setup tbh, it'd be great to be able to delete the WhatsApp app from my phone, but better than nothing...

Thanks, but I mean how did you set up the external client for it? Did you have a spare phone to use, or did you set up an Android VM?

Good to know, thank you. How did you set up the whatsapp bridge?

Thanks for the report. Do you use the whatsapp bridge? If so, how did you set it up? Emulator?

When I was looking into matrix bridges I heard a bunch of stories about people getting their accounts blocked after using them through the bridges. Is this still an issue?

Look at the very least you should write in the blogpost clearly which parts are generated by LLMs, so your readers can decide whether to trust them.

Idk man, it seems pretty irresponsible to me to write a blogpost with stuff that you got from ChatGPT without understanding it. People will assume that if you wrote a blogpost on this then you know what you're doing. ChatGPT gets stuff wrong all the time, and we're talking about firewall configuration here. If it misconfigured some stuff it could leave you and your readers vulnerable to all kinds of shit.

In this case it seems to me that (luckily) there's just a bunch of redundant routing, but the next time it could be leaking your and your readers' torrent traffic out of the VPN tunnel, leaving you vulnerable to legal repercussions for piracy.

Please don't authoritatively post stuff that you got from the automatic bullshit generator without understanding it.
