Google has broken trust so often, so severely, that it’s the default to not trust anything they do, ever.
If they can, they absolutely will leverage basic security measures for their own benefit. And, it isn’t like there’s no press by governments to backdoor all the things.
So it shouldn’t boggle the mind at all. This is what happens when oligarchs and their servants run amok, nobody can trust anything.
No, it’s been coming
Yeah, this is definitely a good option. Thanks :)
I’m gonna give it a try, see how it functions.
Edit: okay, the app is solid.
Cool features, looks good, the protocol is supposedly secure. I’d say this is a damn good telegram replacement
Yeah, legit, I’ve messed around with this kind of thing before, and I wouldn’t attempt to run lemmy myself. Major pain in the ass.
I mean, android is fine I guess, but it’s being pushed to be less and less able to be separated from Google. I think for a lot of people interested in self hosting, there’s a low amount of interest in it because of that.
What do you do this off-site backup?
Oh, I get it. I’m looking at switching to graphene despite it needing a Google phone.
I’m just saying that people see Google and changes in an article, it’s not weird for them to immediately assume something hinky is going on
