Figures… they’ll allow side-loading only in jurisdictions where their hand is forced to do so.
Correct, it’s custodial. The mint holds the funds until they the redeemed.
Yeah, very true. This is why we can’t have nice things 😅
Thoughts on things like Cloudflare Tunnels to proxy public facing services in lieu of opening ports on your network?
Yeah, this tech is terrifying & intriguing. Neat to play with for sure.
I know, right!? I was blown away. I know enough to read and generally understand basic Python but wouldn’t have been able to write this. It took literally 2-3 prompts and just worked. Was about a 5 minute interaction. Then on me to put together the iOS portion. Which looks like this.
* You also need a Python IDE installed. I use an app called Pyto.
Nice, had to try sending one your way as well. That went through also. Eventually I’ll figure this out and optimize my setup.
Appreciate the effort. Trying to sort out my zap server. I think maybe I don’t have the right (or enough) channel partners. Here to learn and experiment with LN. Non custodial definitely has a learning curve. 😅
Yea I think we’re on the same page for privacy you don’t want compromise as that is a security hole.
100% 👊
Agreed. I’d never feel comfortable using WW with some of their decisions and historical code issues. And although, if I’m being honest, the SW “take no shit” attitude is more of what I want in my privacy tech (as compared to voluntary compliance with regulators)…it can make things a bit confusing for newbies trying to decide how to best tackle their own privacy.
Interesting because they are both owned by cypherpunk holdings. Is this drama to increase attention?
Was curious about this after reading your comment. It seems like Cypherpunk Holdings invested just a small amount in each. In a couple articles, I saw claims of $100k into SW (didn’t get a $$ amount for WW). Doesn’t sound like anything major or amounts that would allow for any control of either entity. Found this mention from SW in regards to percentage of holdings.
Curious to see if/how Apple potentially adds an asterisk to the option to side load. Have heard some speculation on this.
Clunky workaround, register a new signal account with a voip number on the 2nd phone. Then start a group message with your 2 accounts and the person your actually want to talk to.
A mini pc will give you a much more reliable experience. I’ve purchased several of these and have had zero issues. Still small and low energy consumption but much smoother operation. Toss in a bigger SSD, which you’d need with a Pi anyway and you’re set. Often times it’s cheaper to do it this way as well.
IVPN is great. They require zero information from you. Email address is even optional.
Late to the party but testing my own as well. Zap made it 👍
