Perhaps not everyone uses the platform the same way you do?
Obviously not, as we can see by the fact that OP uses it to promote their youtube content, but that’s irrelevant. You asked why all the comments in response are asking why, and I took a moment to explain. Whether or not you like the answer is up to you. Good day.
Why is everyone asking why in the comments?
Probably because most of us come to forums like this one for discussion. Not to be click-baited into sitting through someone’s video exposition.
The video is short and excellent.
OP posted an off-site link with a useless title, and nothing else. No explanation. No synopsis. No point of view. Just an off-site link with a title that tries to bait us into spending our time bolstering their view count for them. That alone is enough to disqualify it as an excellent post in a text forum. If he had written something thoughtful here, them maybe it could have been a valuable post.
Why?
The title is somewhat misleading. It’s not on F-Droid; it’s on an f-droid-compatible repo that is run by a third party.
As I recall, Delta Chat is a front end for opportunistic PGP over email, so I guess this must be a spec for sharing web apps over that channel. Yes?
How does it compare to Matrix widgets?
In English, to dump is (usually) to unload or discard, so its use here is a bit strange. I thought I understood what was meant anyway, but I wasn’t sure.
“Dump”? Is that a literal translation of the Danish word for failure?
19·9 days agoWhile we’re at it, let’s ban languages that aren’t understood by Europol employees. Criminals could be using them to have private conversations.
Regarding rule 3, what about things like VPN and email services that have proprietary components?
3·9 days agoImagine confusing anonymity with privacy.
Imagine thinking communication is comparable to a house.
I wonder if this Europol chief knows what specious means.
I think my question was clear enough. The comment didn’t mention banks, I’ve never had a bank that did that, and we generally don’t try to hide our identities from our banks anyway. My best guess was that they misunderstood how public/private keys work, but since that was only a guess, I asked.
I don’t see a claim of it being more private than a username. Perhaps the person you’re arguing with views them as equally private, or is thinking of services that require some form of contact info. I can’t speak for them.
LOL what? No they’re not. How does an email protect your privacy over just a username?
They said per-account email addresses, presumably meaning that when giving out an email address, you would use a different one for each service. That way, they couldn’t be used to link you across services, and you could easily delete one (and know who to blame) if it was abused.
