  • Why does Signal want a phone number to register if it's supposedly privacy first?

    Jump

  • The ONLY data Signal stores about you is your phone number, most recent registration time/date and most recent login time/date. They don't know who you're messaging or when you're messaging them AFAIK.

    You can see this for yourself at signal.org/bigbrother

  • You can bridge your Bluesky account to the fediverse and all your future posts will be visible on the fediverse, though you'll only be able to interact with people who have bridged their fediverse accounts back to Bluesky.

  • There's also GoToSocial which is made to be lightweight from the get go.

  • Is CalyxVPN reputable?

    Jump

  • I already use proton on PC, I needed one for mobile as well hence Calyx caught my eye.

    (ProtonVPN's free plan is limited to one device at a time, that's why)

  • What search engine do you use?

  • I use Ecosia, it plants trees with the profits from its ad revenue! Results are sourced from Bing and Google.

  • How to unpin "Search with Google" from my search bar?

    Jump

  • This worked, thanks!

    Solution: Go to Settings > Home > Enable Shortcuts > Go to a new tab > Google will be pinned by default, hover over the Google icon > Click on the 3 dots menu > Unpin

  • Yes, my default search engine is Ecosia.

    I haven't changed it manually though, I installed their extension and it changed the default; if this matters in any way.

  • You don't need internet to access the passwords stored in Bitwarden if you have their local clients installed. It stores an encrypted copy of your database locally to your device which syncs (updates) over the internet.

  • I used an original iPod in 2024, and it was pretty fun

    Jump

  • I'm sorry if I sound naive but what's wrong with using a mobile?

    I thought people use traditional music players like iPod and Tangara only because of their retro feel, is there something else to it?

  • Skiff, the private email provider has been acquired by Notion. It is set to shut down its services after 6 months.

    Jump

  • Their generous offering of 10gigabytes of free storage along with a private, ad-free, end-to-end encrypted experience always sounded too good to be true. There was no way they could sustain that business model long term. At least they're giving users enough time to jump ship and have not sold their data to Notion (judging by their twitter replies).
