Time to get serious with E2E encrypted messaging (techcrunch.com)
 

I currently use Telegram for my friends and family, but have reluctantly come to the conclusion that the UK Government is either reaching agreement for backdoors with messaging services, or is trying its hardest to.

I'm also on Element/Matrix. Before I try to get my contacts to join me on there, should I be aware of any privacy issues or is that a good place to head?

Separate dongle for internet using a hotspot can help. No system is perfect but Linux phone is an excellent first step

You'd want to be using only Linux apps that weren't recording and reporting everything. Much easier to get in Linux than Apple/android

An amazing bit of digital detective work here. Seems like Linux mobile is your only off ramp from being exhaustively tracked

Is there any other format of media that you think should come to the fediverse? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml

Somebody was working on one but not sure it's live any more https://github.com/Flockingbird

Help - create curated feed of archived webpages using open source product (lemmy.ml)
 

Hi, I'm trying to add value to a community by creating a curated feed of webpages about a specific topic. For example, if it was Scottish snakes (it isn't) then I would archive every news article I saw on the topic, and host the feed on a webpage or similar.

I've tried Wallabag, and I can't find a way to publish the whole feed - just an individual article.

Any suggestions for other open source tools for this?

How many here just use the Lemmy web client on mobile? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml

Just uninstalled Jerboa after using Lemmy on Firefox. So smooth! 👍👍

Another one here. Inveterate distro hopper now firmly anchored with fedora

Fairphone still updating old handsets (arstechnica.com)
 

Fair play; I don't own a Fairphone, and I'm hoping to keep my current Android alive long enough to be able to go straight to a Linux phone. But this is another demonstration of why it's good to support outliers
