Wait until you are a zombie the next day
I was actually looking at setting up immich right now but the requirements are crazy... Minimum 4GB of RAM? Ouch.
I will need a dedicated newer machine for this...
Yes I agree it sucks he removed forward secrecy.
Yes I agree that simpleX hides metadata better when BOTH parties want to be invisible.
Yes I agree that he should make the pin and notification on devices would be good.
Yes I agree it would be better if you could pick your entrance node like Tor.
This isn’t a real debate because I have no say in what KeeJef does. Remember, I am a USER of session, and NOT a developer. So my goal is to educate people on the pros and cons. We use a Session bot we made to distribute content, I’d like to do the same for SimpleX in the future. But I’m not going to do it if it’s a toxic culture.
What I do like about Session is a complete separation of physical locations from identity or communication, the ability to own your identity like a crypto wallet, and rotate the key to a new identity via the blockchain. As we outlined in our uncensored discussion for it’s use on a VPS.

This makes Session more suited for pure censorship, unlike simpleX with government domain name identities.
If you think about it, SimpleX heavily relies on a secure off-band mode of communication to begin with, to prevent bogus URLs from being sent as man in the middle. Now, you said you’re adding PGP keys, and that’s great. I look forward to it. But I’m still relying on the regular government internet stack to deliver me the public key.
SimpleX excels at TWO way anonymity.
Session excels at ONE way anonymity, since anyone can quickly tap into your blockchain name and verify it easily. Many people in life may want to be invisible, but in most cases you don’t.
A journalist doesn’t want to be invisible, I want to know that I’m talking to the right journalist.
A crypto-trader doesn’t want to be invisible, I want to know that I’m sending funds to the right trader.
Additionally, users can achieve the same thing as SimpleX by having multiple Session identities on Linux.
I like SimpleX, and I’m excited you have made progress. I’m NOT saying don’t use it. I’ve just grown frustrated over the last few months with the simpleX linux clients having errors that caused me to abandon accounts, which makes the whole thing real vulnerable to phising attacks. As I mentioned in chat previously, SimpleX’s reliance on android first is one I disagree with as mobile devices are not secure. Also, the motivation to host your own server is somewhat confusing, if using your own server causes you to stand out. I hope your voucher system fixes this.
At the end of the day, I’m not looking to cause fighting for the sake of drama. I get excited about freedom technology for the love it. I wonder if you bashing Session 24/7 while adopting very similar features is in the same vein. I think KeeJef should be the one to debate with you, not me.
I don't understand how does establishing 1st communication doesn't always require connecting offband.
You can always someone because they told you how to do so in another medium, there is no way around it, no amount of "decentralized identity layer" would prevent that.
The exception is when you new meet people in the medium itself and can just initiate a conversation directly.
By the way, I am completely satisfied with Oracolo https://github.com/dtonon/oracolo Finally, now I can easily share links to my posts and, in general, to my profile. For example: https://dukenukemmustdie.com/#0000051c8fa4b68e64c03b23ae18a637f8c16fc87b05343a8910c0c2e727420d And I don't need to explain to people what Nostr is.
How could I have missed this? I have been using nostrpress from our fallen friend utxo.one but this is looking more promising
Sovereignty comes with a price. Not that the UK rulers are better/worse than the ones in Brussels, but at least the power is closer to the people.
At this point, it could be just easier to buy a stolen account on the darkweb
Depends on how you define "control". With the outbox model, you can't easily control which relays you connect to since it depends on your follow list and the people you interact with.
You also can't control which servers you hit when querying profile pics, etc.
Even if everything is "open", it can still fall outside of our control.
This is kind of a genius game changing idea. Let's make it happen!
Back then I remember I was super anti-brexit. How foolish of me but at least I had the excuse of being young and fully indoctrinated
In case you didn't know, the members of EU Parliament that will be elected tomorrow don't have any power to initiate/propose legislation or a vote.
1 out of 7 EU institutions is democratically elected, and it's the one with more constrained power. 🤡
If not, I would give silent.link with a real phone number a try
sentrum works over nostr DMs, I don't know if that's enough to count 😂
This would practically reach the point of clients and relays gossiping with each other. I don't dislike it
Have you selected the "real phone number" checkbox on sms4sats? It costs double but it never failed for me on many services (telegram, steam, openai)

Testing that #amethyst does not craah when tagging: nostr:npub1gcxzte5zlkncx26j68ez60fzkvtkm9e0vrwdcvsjakxf9mu9qewqlfnj5z Wow it really worked, great job 🔥this is a game changer
How easy is it to set it up?
