Thanks for that. In this day and age, hearing something positive is a bliss, even it’s just deradicalizing hexers.

I mean, it’s good opsec to have a separate account to talk about dicey subjects anyway. You’re leaving less breadcrumbs in the same place.

Your username implies the existence of a lesser, regular jimboomba.

I think you replied to the wrong comment chain, but thanks for info.

So you only trade with people in your web of trust? That’s not feasible. People flock to these websites to trade with strangers. You don’t need a middleman to trade with people you already trust.

What I want is an eBay alternative. Like old school eBay, with basic (non obscured) reputation system, auction options, stuff like that.

That wouldn’t really solve it though. The problem is not a man in the middle attack. It’s someone scamming you. They can do it, then generate another signature, repeat, etc.

Like I said, I don’t know the inner workings of Matrix. But according to the second guy that isn’t you, Matrix has a new tech stack that is zero trust. Now, there are many ways in which that can be true and I don’t know if what Matrix has right now can indeed be considered dissident-level privacy.

It’s good enough for my threat level (I basically just use it for software support). If I were planning to overthrow a regime, I’d likely go with SimpleX or some other privacy-first messengers.

Bless your heart.

I know, I’m not even going to try. I can already hear the crying and gnashing of teeth.

You now understood both my point and the OC’s, I hope.

The point is that you can invite the people in your life to try it out. Just like Facebook in the early days. Except it doesn’t have the hostile UX of Facebook.

SMS is so ass, I can’t even.

It’s the XcQ at the end that does it for me.

Funny, when Facebook started there was almost no one I knew there either. It was its doom. It crashed and burned before it even got off the ground. Orkut still reigns supreme.

It’s for short form videos, it’s mimicking its competitors UX right now (namely YouTube shorts, Instagram reels and TikTok). Neither has thumb down or show you how long a video is.

As for content… the users generate content, not the software. So… how many good videos have you uploaded?

I’ve been wanting to test audio and video calls to see if I can use to play TTRPG instead of relying on discord. Sabe issue though, no one to test with. Let me know if you want to test either.
