They got a exception because npbody uses that insecure garbage here, everyone uses Whatsapp tho so this makes a lot of sense!

Whatsapp encrypts top and it’s your choice to write with someone on Whatsapp… 🤦

I have a similar issue but I am able to use SMS for those few people, most of them are relatively easy to convince of Singla in my experience, it’s as easy as it gets, basically whatsapp in secure!

I will finally be able to replace fucking SMS with a few people that simply won’t switch to Signal, I simply won’t use Whatsapp and that did cause some security issues till now!

Damn, that’s awful!

Both have laws like that in the making and beside tiny formalities the UK sadly didn’t abandone it at all! :/

Have you ever touched a Google phone? You CAN’T uninstalled preinstalled apps on ether of them, if you don’t root your device third party app stores suck, the law allows you to get rid of preinstalled bloat, messager interoperability is included and so on, that’s a huge law and the first against silicon valley giants with enforcment that will actually hurt them!

It’s a really good search engine and I have no reason to doubt their claims about privacy and cencorship but I have to say no there because beside finding piratebay in the normal search results it’s all just their claims and I don’t know of any sientific study or similar that ever tested any of the claims. If you don’t trust those promises self hosting SearX is probably a good option and I haven’t tried it in years but Qwant is another one with their own index aka independent results.

Seriously? Maybe try to take another look because that couldn’t be father from reality!

A german Youtuber made a great video about that titles “not AI will replace you, your boss will”

Funfact, the shitpapers of Axel Springer plan to use fully fletched AI generated articles since ChatGPT came out, in that case I can’t see any way to decrease the quality further tho!

Youtube never was a especially profitable business on it’s own, they basically just need it for the traffic but I guess they might try to change that, if that’s the case the logical next step would be dropping independent creators! :/

Luckily Libretube and Piped still work so I haven’t had to visit the normal Youtube site in ages, I do know Youtube increased their aggression towards third party frontends too tho so we will see how long the Newpipe extractor will work I guess!

I am a gamer and I didn’t ether!

That sounds great, I think one of the biggest issues of Matrix is the feature packed default client, it can’t be easy with that much stuff in it and it isn’t ideal for most use cases because it tries to cover all. The official client is the one new users will try and in case of a chat app that should be a simple chat app like Whatsapp or signal, just without the extra crap!

Well, everybody is entitled to a own opinion but I highly recommend that Internet Historian video because you certainly don’t seem to understand the degree of garbage they did with Fallout 76, I am definitely happy they don’t force there launcher anymore tho!

Yes, a LOT of things! Fallout76 is the worse example (the internet historian video about it is good), Fallout 4 to some extend, the endless rereleases of Skyrim with no additional value, their shitty launcher, their constant selling of rippoff merch and so on. It’s a terribke company that was good ages ago and still profits from their prior reputation, well and now it’s owned by Microsoft too!

Already hiding from the Reddit mob?

Perfect answer, don’t give Bethesda and Microsoft your money!

Not sure if you know what you vouch for here, I definitely don’t want to see that ugly face every day!
