I would use that phone if I had the ability to customise it to my needs. I don’t want meta apps nor Spotify preinstalled, but I would take the ability to install signal.

Congrats, it’s a nice collection. I’m not a big fan of the visuals though, it looks too much like any cheap AI / blockchain project. That‘s just me though.

Thank you for your feedback! I heard that from friends, too. "Purple is the color of the sexually frustrated."

Thank you. Apart from really not wanting to give Twitter any visits, it’s also a pain in the ass if you don’t have the app installed and use proper privacy settings.

No problem with xcancel or nitter, I wish more people would share the links to these as well

Ja ja, maybe not as gut as the Scandinavians, but still better than many US Americans.

Looks interesting. But where’s the privacy policy or at least information what happens with all the sensitive stuff you enter there. Because let’s be honest, a lot of the stuff that is awkward to talk about is somewhat private.

> Lately the EU Commission came up with a plan to create an inventory of every single valuable items owned by every single EU citizen: from Magic The Gathering and Pokemon cards to jewelry/heirloom, paintings, gold and silver coins/bars, cryptocurrencies coins, watches, cars, boats, etc. Anything with some value: would go in the inventory. >The European Parliament asked the question: "Can you guarantee us this will never ever be used as a basis to confiscate these items?" to which the European Commission answered: "No, we cannot guarantee that".

Excuse me for not taking this at face value but this sounds like disinformation. Where did you get that from?

After quickly googling, it seems that the plans do not go as far as they make them out to be. The things to be catalogued are only those relevant in the fight against money-laundering. That's hardly "full commie style inventory of every single item with any value".

I wouldn’t want either US or Chinese corporations to have access to my sensitive data. But if I had to choose, which I luckily don’t, I’d choose the US. That stuff I guess.

Encourage Mastodon use. There’s nothing that stops Bluesky from ending up just like Twitter.

All the federated structure in the world doesn't matter if you don't have users. I think we're better off encouraging bluesky to finish what they're building, mastodon won't ever get there.

I think the protocol is actually pretty open, and can be hooked into without them. I may be wrong though, I read into how it worked years ago.

In theory it is, but as of now you can't actually use any provider other than bluesky

Works great, my device visited over 100 times already

edit: not only that, under past visits I can now see the ip address of other visitors, together with their rough location and browser setup. You may want to remove the "gdpr compliant" from the website :)

Thanks for pointing that out — we’ve corrected the display so no other visitors’ IPs or locations are shown. We take privacy seriously and have updated the site to reflect that.

Don’t worry, it was 0/2 in detecting my browser or OS, like not even close, and I don’t do anything to obfuscate that, so it’s probably accidentally compliant
