“Sideloading”

Aka avoiding the monopoly app store with your own device

Time for a small fine

Anyone have a wild guesstimate on when this will be available?

What OS are you running on it?

Wear a mask

No it’s not. It got bought out a few years ago.

GitHub reply from a Stoat Dev 2025: https://github.com/orgs/stoatchat/discussions/951

I’ve also personally spoken with Stoat community members who were more educated about the project than me. As well as a friend who is very involved in tech projects

The Spacebar alternative client, Fermi, is more actively maintained from my understanding

https://fermi.chat/ https://github.com/MathMan05/Fermi

I don’t know if anyone else has had this issue but I tried multiple times to sign up for spacebar/Fermi and it just didn’t go through. Do they block VPN’s for signups or certain privacy browsers?

I’ve not had an issue with signing up for any other FOSS sites with my setup. Just curious if anyone else was having this issue

Matrix has screensharing but no audio for the share, at least from when I’ve tried it

No they don’t. Check out my other reply.

TLDR, they plan to but haven’t yet. But currently they (the owners of the centralized instance) have the ability to read other people’s chats due to the lack of E2E encryption

Reposting my reply from another thread, just to keep people informed:

Keep in mind everyone that Stoat still doesn’t currently protect it’s users information and is centralized. It doesn’t use encryption but it is very seamless. You can host your own Stoat instance but it doesn’t communicate with the main one. The devs have said they plan to add more security features in the future yet still don’t make it a priority. The host of Stoat should be able to see everyone’s messages, including in DM’s, due to the lack of E2E encryption. Once they add more security features I imagine they will be much more popular in general.

Or use a virtual camera with a preset video

This doesn’t work for age verification and is a relatively small pool of photos

Has he made any comment about the massive data center increasing the cost of living there yet? /gen

Edit: For those downvoting, /gen means I’m asking genuinely if he has commented on it.

You’re paying animal agriculture to harm more animals.

Is Anubis an alternative to Cloudflare?

When can we own it ourself and mod it?

I never see anyone mention this but, from my experience at least, pockets in women’s clothing tends to be uncomfortable for laying on one’s side.

I like to have the option of having or not having pockets, like with most legging brands.
