Rooted android TV with a good router firewall

I am this same person, what this fella said is true for me too

I deleted my account when I heard they were going to roll this out… If I’m using a service you ask me if you can sell me out, you dont give me the option after doing it

Its self hostable now, and I’m my playing around with the self hosted version it seems fine

Its honestly really good now in my experience. Honestly wish people used it instead of Zoom.

Ive been using Jitsi for screen sharing and calls :p

I’m pretty sure its supposed to be Discord. Discords tagline used to start with “Imagine a place where X” which is why theyre saying “Imagine a matrix client” lol

This looks interesting, and if they can get VC & E2EE it will definitely be something I’ll make the switch to from Matrix. As much as I love Matrix, it feels very messy and uncoordinated.

Did you try Cinny?

I’m not sure about for the 5G version, but I was able to bootloader unlock the regular 2021 Stylus using the rescue tool, and install Andy Yangs LineageOS GSI. 4G, calling and text worked like stock. It was kind if a PITA to maintain but it was nice peace of mind.

I know the average Joe doesnt care about security/privacy but, ugh. Really wish we did. Society (at least in the US, where I am) might be a bit less shit if they did. I’m glad to hear that iMessage is a flash in the pan in other countries though, I dont understand why its such a big deal here, especially when Signal/WhatsApp exists and provides a similar seemless experience across more than one platform, but then again you’d hear me complaining about Meta if I lived anywhere else in the world so, really a lose lose for me :(

Gonna be honest I’d much prefer Signal to take off in this regard. In the US iMessage is the closest widely excepted equivalent, but if I’m gonna do WiFi IM, I want to know it is 100% verifiably private. Otherwise I might as well be using SMS/MMS.

Damn dude you killed him xD

APK and play Store versions are identical. Signal runs a check for GMS/GFS and if that Check returns true uses firebase. If not it uses WebSocket. Signal-FOSS on TwinHelix removes GMS/GSF dependencies though, and Molly-UP actually integrates a way for you to use your own push Server.

Edit: Also if you use MicroG without push notifications enabled default Signal is just broken last I checked.

I’m gonna be honest I’m not too concerned about people who aren’t on Degoogled ROMs messaging me through Signal. I dont believe Theres much I say over text or Phone calls in Signal that can be used against me. While i do have my threat model to be in a state where I want to prevent as much spying as possible (I use FOSS only unless it is literally not possible, I turn on airplane mode when I dont need data/am on WiFi, my VPN is always on etc), I dont expect others to Switch away from their convinence for me and me only. if I can talk them into switching over time (like I have with my SO and most close family) then Thats great, but if not, Id rather talk to them on Signal than on fuckin Discord 🤢
