but will they? absolutely not.
For some groups of people, facts don't matter and people just use it because of their prejudice. They'll simply call it "fake news"
ikr? these news come out every month.
I hope they did and start driving down costs but if it isn't mass produced and easily accessible, the news means fuck all for everyone but the CCP.
Well, Android runs over JVM which runs over Linux. There's overhead and Android needs to compensate. Add in poor memory management and OEMs that happily kill apps in the background for no good reason (even if you tell them not too), and marketing guys trying to out RAM competitors just so they can release a phone with an "upgrade" every year, you get current Android RAMathon.
Begun the silicon wars have (again)
yaayy!!
Beeper sets a good premise. Talk to your friends without ever bugging them about hopping over to a completely new app. You might convert some, but not most.
There's a downside to E2EE on bridged chats but if that's not acceptable within your threat model then you wouldn't be using it in the first place.
I don't think people consider Interview with the CEO as verifiable claims for privacy or security. Even Google would claim they are privacy friendly on an interview.
Some independent security audit or a reputed privacy/security org maybe?
All sorts of data you provide it. hihi
I guess the birthdays, your work/home schedule, daily routines, your bills, the level of procrastination in how keep avoiding your reminders.
Maybe, Google provides them these leaks to hype up their products? or maybe it's the "influencers" who get a "gift" before the release. Retailers who get the early stock to sell at release.
who knows? ㄟ(ツ)ㄏ
the instance hosted by you is going to be the most privacy friendly.
you have to trust someone else in any other instance.
Google claims to do some processing on their own tensor chip locally so it might reduce some data being sent to Google, but it doesn't limit them from tracking you. With Pixel, you are only being tracked by Google and not Samsung or other manufacturer
kbin seems like a great idea but the execution is meh. There are so many unnecessary things going on but simple things like collapsible comments and bookmarks are missing. You have to go to a post to view the links being posted. The interface also leaves a 2000s forum design vibes, with the random threads, users, communities in the sidebar. That's just wasting resources. Microblogs are included from mastodon, but if you want to microblog from with, they become threads.
Lemmy has come a long way, however kbin doesn't seem like it's changing all that much. I know it's still in beta, so I keep an eye out. Hopefully, it'll be more customizable in the future.
what does this mean?
