We've been hosting a Riot/Matrix instance, and the experience has been great. I like their team's unique approach to transparency. One neat example of this is that they provide streams of their weekly standups to their Patr

Did you really think they were talking about SSL in this context? Of course they meant E2E.

I think Riot/Matrix is a happy compromise. I've been hosting a couple of servers (one for fun, one for work) for about half a year now, and it's working well.

Plenty of routers can be flashed with open source third-party firmware like OpenWRT.

That never works. Just take RED's interview.

I think they pointed out the spelling error because it was made twice. I don't see anywhere in their comment where they tied it to your intelligence.

It's Gizmodo: it's not going to be much more than an intentionally divisive reflection of the readership's values.

Creators won't bother to find alternative platforms until the users leave the harmful dominant one.

I'm not the parent commenter, and "freedom of speech" is not the same thing as the First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution.

How, exactly, would one "force Twitter's hand"? Twitter sets their policies, there are no mystical forces at work here. Your tone implies you're doubtful, but isn't this Twitter punishing "wrongthink"?

Who mentioned the first amendment?

Most people having those requirements are the major reason these areas are sparsely populated.

I'm skeptical when I hear "Microsoft loves Foo", because of how they've handled what they "love" before.

Google has an adb-sync script that works really well.

Have you heard of / considered Matrix/Riot?

Money: I really doubt Google profits off the hardware sales at the price points they go for (I'd guess they recoup their costs with ChromeOS), but even if they do that's fine. I'm okay with paying a company for hardware. Adve

People shouldn't use ChromeOS, but Chromebooks are fine.

What? Of course it's not critical, especially not the paid subscription. You can get by just fine without it with a good textbook.

I want that, as it normalizes the need for large upload bandwidth. The only reason it's such a scarce commodity now is that households aren't perceived as needing that bandwidth. The proliferation of legal peer-to-peer systems wil

I agree. The ACLU, on the other hand, has begun to rationalize their way out of defending white nationalists. Not exactly a very good defender of civil liberties if they start drawing ideological lines as to who they defend. I had just star
