You can only do that for your own messages though. I’m guessing the messages from the prostitutes would be more than enough for the wife to notice.

Also I think the window is longer than 3 hours. Maybe a day?

Signal also has a similar problem. If you choose the “delete for me” option, it only deletes it on one device and leaves it on the others, last time I checked.

He would have to set up disappearing messages aswell.

I didn’t know that was a controversial opinion? Do you think that Apple are as bad as Google or Meta in terms of privacy?

Apple does have privacy violations, but the things I’ve seen them get caught doing are minor compared to the things that many other companies do openly.

The main point of the article you’ve linked is that Apple put the equivalent of a “Do not track” option in a browser, and it did exactly the same of a “Do not track” option in a browser (nothing). Does that mean that any browser with a DNT request option is bad for privacy?

Adding an option that is somewhat misleading isn’t ideal, but it’s incomparable to something like Cambridge analytica incident, or the tracking that Google put basically everywhere on the Internet.

By the way, I am in no way defending Apple. I’m just saying that everything that Apple does, companies like Google and Meta also do, just ten times over.

I believe an iPhone is way better than a Pixel for privacy, even if both are far from ideal. I’d love to be proven wrong, tho.

Moshidon is really good for android. I especially like that you can have custom timelines for basically anything

Doesn’t necessarily have to be the same. Afaik the signal protocol is for sending messages, not for transferring backups of chats.

Whatsapp actually lets you back up all your chats, unencrypted, to Google Drive or iCloud. Definitely not the same as Signal.

It’s probably more expensive and inconvenient.

Also it might only take one report for an active mod team to ban a server. How long can that take? An hour? Less? If they’re on servers that real people use, bots have to be banned one by one, so the spam can last a lot longer and reach more people.

It will work for a while until the guest account expires, but then you’ll need to log in with a Twitter account.

(I think)

I’m on 3.7.3

It got updated so you can log in with Twitter accounts instead of only using guest accounts. It still works as far as I can tell

If anyone needs to use Twitter but doesn’t want to use the official app/website, Squawker (F-Droid) (GitHub) still works, but you need to log in with an account now.

you can’t move that account somewhere else.

That means you can migrate between servers and keep all your friends and followers, something that’s currently not possible in the Fediverse.

It absolutely is possible to move accounts between instances on the fediverse. I’ve done it multiple times.

It does have some quirks tho. Posts aren’t migrated to your new account. (Some fedi software lets you migrate posts, but from what I hear it’s kinda jank).

It’s not seamless, but the option is there, and you won’t lose any friends or followers (unless they’re defederated or something)

Bluesky accounts seem like they’ll be more portable than fediverse accounts but I don’t know much about it

It’s a crawler that ports things from one platform to another without consent from the user. If either of them are unethical and should be blocked, then both should be blocked.

I understand blocking this bridge, but if admins do that, they should block other bridges too, like bird.makeup

Threads isn’t federated yet. It’ll be a while before fediverse accounts can be seen on threads

There are ads on the app store, which I’d consider to be part of the “primary operating system”, especially since it’s the only way to install apps.

Not to mention constant ads for icloud. In the photos app, and even notifications from the settings app. (It’s possible to turn these off, but not easy or intuitive).

After switching to Android, I haven’t seen a single ad in the operating system, (I think Play Store does have ads, I just haven’t got any for some reason). The closest thing is Google photos sometimes asking me to turn on backup.

It’s acting up, so the feed doesn’t work, but if you go to the profile of someone you already subscribed to you can kinda see their posts? It’s weird

Not actually how it works. There’s two options. One of them has the notifications in the “dead space”, but the content never gets eaten up.

(Pinging @EdibleFriend@lemmy.world , just in case you didn’t know about this!)

I wouldn’t use this myself. Most apps are designed so content fits underneath the camera hole so nothing gets eaten, and even if it does get eaten, the camera is so small that it’s not an issue for me

Edit: this is what you have to enable, by the way.

When will the results be posted? I want to see the desserts :)
