I like this perspective. Wish there were more implementations of a biometric + password combo.

Good for them

One of these things is not like the others

This looks neat. Great writeup!

Best alternative I’ve found is Signal for VoIP and parsec for game streaming

Is the TOR part optional?

Use an app with filter lists. Add american political terms to filter. Experience gets muuuuuch better.

Neat. I’ve got an extra 10TB lying around, got any good setup documentation/guides you could reccomend?

Agreed.

Its a very common use case on discord. As an example, a group of friends playing Jackbox Games, or watching YouTube videos together.

It is also common on art-focused servers for many people to be passively sharing what they are working on while they chat.

Matrix can’t do game streaming, which is arguably a huge part of Discord.

In this scenario I mean running or resistance training. I also enjoy hiking and tennis, which I find more enjoyable, but nothing that gives me the chemical release others describe. And not doing them does not significantly affect my mood.

No.

I wish I worked like this. I get no such dopamine rush from exercise, even after integrating it into my routine. Skipping a day doesn’t significantly alter my mood.

However, I do have a lot of passive movements. Pacing, fidgiting, leg bouncing, etc. I’m usually constantly moving in some small way.

I like this. I don’t use (most) social media, but I can see this being a healthy compromise for a partner who does.

The whole site has similar prices… those sweaters are cool but not $250 cool

This sounds like something everyone should go through at least once, to underscore the importance of hardening that can be easily taken for granted

Oh this fucking rules

“They look for the cracks” is an excellent way to put it.

I don’t even tell friends, except those who are very close. Too often, it changes the way people treat me.

Yep. And besides, the only people actually taking significant risk here are the instance hosters storing the content.
