  • If everyone had a friend that had a server we coulddp some fun stuff with federation and decentralization. Decentralized federated social networks without spam and without much need for moderation. Backup (I’ve always wanted to offer friends a family a backup service. I’d like to have a friend with a server so that I can backup my backups on their sever and in exchange they can do the same on mine). Almost free hosting (if I have my own home server I could provide friends with the option to host their static site for free which could be acceded by any server on the federated network



  • Holly shit I do not know how you managed to read my message. I had auto correct set to Spanish.

    I was picturing something realtime. You get an app where you can type your +1 and you get a list of all the guests. You tap someone you get to -1 them. At any point you might get a notification hat you have been -1’d and you can go +1 yourself and bring no one. If you are not +1ing your self then your +1 can get -1’d in which case you can’t invite someone else (I’d love to make it so that you can change your +1 to someone else but then the other person might change their -1 to the new person and it turn into a cycle, or -1 are permanent and prone to abuse)

    As a fun option you can sell your -1 if you don’t plan on using it

    Pro tip. If you go to an apps notification settings, then set a category to silenced and option called “minimize” should show up which allows the notification to be hidden from the notification bar, but shown in the drawer







  • I did some quick googling and found this. I haven’t looked too much into it yet, but it doesn’t sound like such a bad reason on the surface, although I do suspect things should be better now

    From their website in the section titled “Privacy over convenience”


    One of the main considerations often ignored in security and privacy comparisons between messaging applications is multi-device access. For example, in Signal’s case, the Sesame protocol used to support multi-device access has the vulnerability that is explained in detail here:

    “We present an attack on the post-compromise security of the Signal messenger that allows to stealthily register a new device via the Sesame protocol. […] This new device can send and receive messages without raising any ‘Bad encrypted message’ errors. Our attack thus shows that the Signal messenger does not guarantee post-compromise security at all in the multi-device setting”.

    Solutions are possible, and even the quoted paper proposes improvements, but they are not implemented in any existing communication solutions. Unfortunately this results in most communication systems, even those in the privacy space, having compromised security in multi-device settings due to these limitations. That’s the reason we are not rushing a full multi-device support, and currently only provide the ability to use mobile app profiles via the desktop app, while they are on the same network.
