PV ☀️☕️ time to build!

Fun facts about Telegram: * has its own shitcoin * is not end to end encrypted by default * doesn’t support encrypted group chats * is Russian owned * is centralized Nostr holds the promise of being an alternative, but in the meantime, I recommend checking out the matrix protocol:

Matrix.org

Matrix, the open protocol for secure decentralised communications

One good client for it is

Element | Secure collaboration and messaging

Element is a Matrix-based end-to-end encrypted messenger and secure collaboration app. It’s decentralised for digital sovereign self-hosting, or ...

“But what about Signal?” Signal is okay, and a better alternative to a lot of chat apps but it’s centralized, and has privacy issues (you have to sign up with a phone number). Its creator Moxie doesn’t seem to think decentralization is a good idea (in general) and expresses his views at length here:

Who else is coding right now? Shill me your playlist for ultra coding vibes.

If you are interested in improving your security posture and haven’t tried QubesOS, I highly recommend it. It does have a bit of a learning curve and requires patience but it’s the best option we have right now. It’s a xen (hypervisor) based OS where you can easily make everything an isolated VM. Happy to answer questions about it. I’ve been using it as my main driver for about 2 years now.

PV squad! Let’s build more stuff 🔨

Nostream is trending on github along with Damus -and nostr/protocol. Pretty exciting 🤙🤙🤙 #[0]
