All the claims concerning telemetry in that thread are made by the person “asking” the question.

I don’t understand the intent of this post. It looks like you’re trying to start a rumor to be honest.

Telemetry in Thunderbird exists and is well documented. If someone is not happy with their engine or approach they need to switch clients and not basically tell them “I want you to rebuild everything around my nerds”.

You got a lot of relevant answers so I want to point out something else:

You’re hosting your own services. By yourself. Fuck everyone with a broom who tries to gatekeep that. And I don’t mean wooden side first.

Seriously, your question is on point here from my perspective and as long as it has a connection to running services by your own I personally would love more diversity in hosting solutions.

Personally, I’d love to see people share more about their provider agnostic opentofu deployment or someone who went all in on AWS lambdas for weird stuff.

Old knowledge disclaimer, but if they didn’t change it then:

Because Apple literally tells people that they’re not allowed to charge less somewhere else - at least that was the case several years ago…

Sent you the account, sounds like an exciting learning project that could turn out to be useful as a side effect! ❤️

That’s not an opinion: that’s uneducation on how to read data. Your own link shows the pay gap by gender when accounting for homosexuality. Literally.

And they even describe it.

Or is your opinion “the data is wrong” and I misunderstood?

With torrents you’re limited to the networks and sources that you have connected. The torrent client search for example is very limited, that’s where the trackers come in.

The question is how debris compares to stuff that is not found on public trackers.

An easy test are niche audiobooks or foreign movies - those are quite rare/specialized.

Tried it for myself. I’m impressed. Thanks for the find!

I assume we’re in a similar boat so let me assure you: no, you won’t - because we wouldn’t even realize it happened.

Only after s few months one of us will recall this thread and be like “oh, yeah. Twitter. Seems really dead finally. Good.”

And to be clear I expect they person to be you because my memory is awful.

And check for each music service their offered music. I’ve checked out tidal actually today with one of those export playlist tools and about 10% of my (honestly: niche) music wasn’t available.

Me when I develop something or test something with another ones tool or want a quick comparison: I don’t want to use something in production for a while just to see if the basics are met.

Those sites give me the opportunity to bomb me with all kinds of scenarios and I check what’s working for me and where not.

It’s not about a few sites that I could quickly check but about patterns.

Oh yeah I agree with that and s good point! Google Play Store is convenient but… Well I circumvent it where possible, more due to the tracking mania but your points added to my sensitivity,so thank you!

That’s what Arthur describes: you’re comparing from my point of view two non issues against each other.

If you don’t have the profile that either warrants:

• Google would risk business revenue by having to handle a mittm attack done by them or
• someone investing in an elaborate scheme to get a fingerprint copy

And that being worth it instead of just getting you personally is a very specific threat model where I lack the fantasy on what would warrant that.

Or to give the relevant xkcd:

And to answer your specific question: I personally went with keepass2android and have neither issues nor concerns so far.

No one forces unattended updates. And containerd is already living in the userspace.

If every dev would live on a kernel level stability approach we’d will not have a containerd release at all.

Seems like a historic artefact to me as well. And one of their mentioned points was “no sync via http” which even for 2006 makes me… hesitant.

And their history section ends in 2007, couldn’t find a feature comparison in their quick start guide.

That would always by definition block all third parties.

Think of the reddit example from the person you replied to: there was a huge outcry when reddit announced shutting down their lower API tiers.

Either information is free to flow or not at all, there is no middle ground.

With that in mind: I’m sure they thought about it and decided to prioritize transparency she flexibility over security. Personally I support that decision.

One thing that was only mentioned briefly by someone else is the physical button turning on the computer.

Similar to the paperclip test figure out where the power button goes into the mainboardw and bridge that with a short cable. Is possible that by moving the case the old button lost a cable.

This is just one more thing to test though, it’s really trial and error as you know :)

From what I understand: CasaOS is simply an abstraction layer and takes away a lot of the manual work.

I agree with you that this shows down learning quite a bit.

I see three ways forward for you:

a) switch to a Linux base system, Debian, arch, nixos, whatever resonates and set up everything from scratch. High learning curve but no more hidden things.

b) same as a but as a separate setup. This is what I would recommend if you have the time and cash. Replicate what’s already working and compare.

c) figure out how to do things manually within the CasaOS framework. Can’t help you there though :)

I wouldn’t say that Germany is the worst.

Because my request to do so is pending since '09.

Not Op here, from what I’ve read is that the answer to that question is unknown but he showed a significant tolerance for some. Does that make it himself fine? In my book: yes.

For me personally it was enoughto leave the project behind as it’s so closely tied to the person.

That’s a call everyone needs to do for themselves though if course

I don’t hate that much but I don’t watch him because of the shady selling business hr often does and apparent sponsored content which is not always disclosed (been a while but his channel misrepresented graphics cards benchmarks for example).

It’s like the British yellow press for me: his face alone is enough to discredit the quality of the source. Could it be good? Sure! Will I ever find out? Not anymore.
