Why is it depressing? Plenty of quality conversation to engage in, less bots so far. Feels more like the forum days, I love it.

Nice, I think I just saw you added one of my feature requests, so will have to give ot another look.

Every time I see this I think it needs a Storage and a Conversation branch.

Not true at all. Consider that would also mean filtering legit businesses.

They have a proper license now: https://github.com/pqoqubbw/icons/commit/0ae3fe52047e9c8fa326beb09b446e062019d03e

Kudos to the devs quick turn around.

Did you get any mismatched IDs from Obtainium? Think I have to reinstall.

This hasn’t been proven in any way. Original op in link states it could be discovery for email domains.

Hah, yup, that’s me, too. Sorry it didn’t work out, a team have done some updates to it that may work now, unfortunately I’ve never been able to get a hold of them.

I think they did a decent job. They report on compatibility for those that want it, but demonstrate it can be a Google-free experience. The fact that they also recognize they tested on an older device vs glossing over that was appreciated, too. Any journalist willing to install Ubuntu on their phone is probably going to be a bit more reliable to begin with, too.

These should be called: Boops.

There is an active issue with reccos. Hopefully it changes.

Bit of a plug, but use gam? https://github.com/fmstrat/gam

You are not Linuxing hard enough.

Our AI-driven export feature allows you to generate the DDL script in the dialect of your choice.

So many other options without sending my schema to a third party. Why?

Yea, get around that with sand boxing, but will probably switch to the android API layer now that it works with WhatsApp

No, but there will be recordings (ugh, hah). Actually had enough interest from those that missed it that I’m doing the session again tomorrow.

Oh yes, wasn’t trying to say it was a bad decision at all. If it fits your threat model, and it makes life easier, it’s probably the right choice.

surely better than Google

This contradicts your threat model comment, though. If you fear Google’s access to your data, you fear nation states, or hate Google. Cloudflare is in the same boat for size, scope, and US ownership.

A single user Lemmy instance is pretty low overhead if you don’t mind the All feed being the same as your Subscriptions feed.

Very cool. I’ll stick with a WhatsApp Matrix bridge so I don’t have to install a Meta app, though.
