There's minds to compete with facebook and twitter

There's proton mail to compete with gmail

>>61981605
... And YouTube and Patreon etc

What's an instant messaging application that actually encrypts everything end-to-end, stores nothing?

I don't want to use (((discord))) any longer, especially since they monitor your conversations for anything they disagree with politically and then ban you if they find it

>>61981622
Bitchute and vid me can compete with youtube

There's 4chan to compete with Reddit

>>61981643
I dont know but we need more nee tech company's

>>61981644
vid me don't seem very user friendly for normal users. It's 100% for video creators... I can't find any simple way to do any searches or anything. Will likely not use it, it's unusable for anyone who want to WATCH videos and not make them.

Bitchute seems more user friendly, but it's ugly, slow and has horrible ui (pressing categories just moves you to the footer and you have to look for a while before you see that the footer has a list of categories as links)

Both are trash.

>>61981589
Mods, nazis are leaking again and they ask for tech support!

>>61981735
Google is trash too, nobody can compete with them 1:1 but they can't be allowed to control things any longer.

>>61981792

>>61981840
>Vid me has a nice layout

Not for normal users, the landing page is filled with "Make money by making videos" and a call to video creators to join, there is not a single video there, just a link to a bunch of channels. It's fast and functional, but looking like that it will never get any users. I don't have time to figure out how to join or anything like that. I just want to see videos, if I want to join then I do it later. And I don't make videos so I don't see a reason to join... Where are the videos? It's a shit website. Anyone who joins it is not going to have any traffic except people who manage to navigate that confusing mess.

It's a website made 100% to upload videos and 0% to actually watch videos.

Designers are usually women or homo/metrosexuals, if not outright trannies and genderfluidqueerspirits. It's a female-minded discipline because it's fundamentally about understanding and relating to people. To me, the typical monopoly interface is child-like, patronizing and insulting, but this is what people seem to like and I can't understand it.

SJW places are probably always going to have better interfaces.

I don't want to do work, these guys should be able to figure that out themselves when they see nobody is watching any videos. They could bring someone in and make them try to figure out how to watch a video.

I dunno how they do now... Log onto their AWS account and figure out the direct link to every video that people upload?

>We need a altTECH revolution

Yeah, I think so too... Not good to have monopolies.

>>61981943
>To me, the typical monopoly interface is child-like, patronizing and insulting, but this is what people seem to like and I can't understand it.

They do a lot of testing and see what makes people look at videos and stay looking at different videos. The interface is engineered and not really as soft as you think.

Their designers pump out tons of different designs, they try everything out with different people and record their usage statistics and iterate the design based on what works best.

>SJW places are probably always going to have better interfaces.

I know they do this. And they come up with a design that works best for the majority, don't forget women and your typical hipster faggot are a large part of that. That doesn't mean it suits everyone. Reddit is good for the majority seemingly, as is facebook

>>61982043

Could easily make the website to have designs that are perfect per user. At least google can just look up interests, software they use and so on (and who knows, maybe they already do) and then in the future you get a youtube page that looks like vim and where you can navigate using vim commands or whatever.

Interesting technology, but also suffer on the lack of user-friendly UI, and they promote themselves with technical jargon so it's not something the general public wants to touch. Looks confusing and overtly technical, but interesting tech.

>>61982073
Once something looks up your interests to customize yourself it's already irredeemable.

I would actually be fine with the typical patronizing cartoon face no sharp edges lots of happy mind-clearing white space interface as long as it respected my freedoms (as in free speech, not as in freedom or free beer).

Or it could just let you radically change the interface, or design your own.

>>61982100
what do you mean by "already"? GNU Social exists too, it is not in alpha state or something, it's usable and is funded by GNU instead of a company poppet out of nothing

>>61982121
>Once something looks up your interests to customize yourself it's already irredeemable.

Sure, for US... But the general public would love it and it's the only way to really get a broad user base. Or you could do some GUESSWORK or iteratively change the design based on how the individual uses the website and just have tons of designs laying around or construct a css file for each user..

These moronic "alt"fucks wouldn't have to grapple with corporations all the time if they'd use FLOSS. It consistently blows my mind how technologically illiterate /pol/ is, and I say this as someone trying to help.
GNU/Social is a decentralized microblogging service (Twitter-type functionality). A good server is https://shitposter.club. The admin's name is Moonman, so, there you go.
Mastadon is a normalfag-friendly frontend reimplimentation with literal trigger warnings and the lead developer is a lolcow who unironically defederates with GS instances for things like "oppressive shitposting." If you want to run a (((friendly))) interface you can use Masto but you'll have to restart it every hour because Ruby on Rails, guize.

Remember: Without the threat to fork, you have no leverage. Only software and services with user rights baked in architecturally can be a solution to monopoly.

Except Mastodon instances are largely inhabited and developed by people who break that guarantee (which they still lie about on the front page of every instance) by willingly issuing instance-level blocks against any other instances (typically GS ones) that don't whip out the rug and praise intl. afro-jewry on the hour.
GS has also been around for a long time with its own metaculture, and Gargles, disliking that culture, consistently tells the soymale technoprole media that he invented the "Mastodon Network," a "decentralized alternative to Twitter".

For this reason, along with its various technical inadequacies, Mastodon use is generally discouraged by users of Gnu/Social.

It's notable that this was never, ever a problem before Mastodon -- there are communist, socialist, anarchist, and authoritarian GS instances of all flavors that never resorted to instance blocking in all of their long history.

Please stop. That list is written from a very shallow perspective. It says not to dismiss browsers using unfair comparisons after having done that for the whole list. It lists projects without saying anything about the purpose of the project, just the implicating that it isn't something the author is interested. And has just wrong info in it, ranger uses w3mimage to display pictures in the terminal, not the other way around.
And the noisy design to presumably make it seem like there is more going on hundreds readability, especially the ridiculous yellow highlights. The C in Cliqz hasn't even rendered properly.

You would have been better of copying some fsf interjection then following up with a plain list to those projects without any vapid commentary.

Everyone involved in that raid was a fucktarded HN user. Their being "SJWs" does, as a matter of fact, impact the security work, because it means they get off on intellectual masturbation and delight in SHUTting IT DOWN small projects that are legitimately challenging the incumbent botnets, because if these people weren't limpwristed male (soy) antmen , they would be outside crushing birds with their hands for the texture.
Here's the GH link for the uninitiated:
https://github.com/TokTok/c-toxcore/issues/426
Watch for yourself. They flood in, ignore that it's a known issue, ignore iphy's posts, and scream and whine until they badger their way to getting a DANGER DANGER STAY AWAY banner plastered on the README, because that's all they wanted in the first place. They made up a target and needed to score some points. High-fives all around, see you tomorrow.

Completely ignoring the hilariously incorrect assertion that this is a critical issue in the first place, their behavior reveals everything you need to know. It's suspicious as fuck how much crapflooding and raiding this project is subject to.

Stick around and watch for yourself. I'm not one to call shill lightly, but...

There's no such thing as altTech. The reason why all of these platforms even work is because they're funded by retards who think one of them will be profitable but in reality are just wasting money on a bunch of beta cucks who couldn't make actual profit to save their lives.

In other words they're false products, they're things that shouldn't exist and "alt" versions of them will never take off without the same sort of investment and money wasting by third parties to support them. It's time to simply kill social media and make sure the goons in charge can't find work anywhere.

The debate between zx2c4, lvh and iphydf was civil enough and informative for whoever reads it, and to put a warning in the README was an adequate resolution on the maintainers' part. irungentoo didn't get what the problem was (more proof that iphydf >>> irungentoo), just like you don't seem to. There is a difference between
>if your private key is stolen, someone can impersonate you
and
>if your private key is stolen, someone can impersonate you and impersonate anyone you've talked to to you
The user only expects the former to happen when his key gets stolen, not the latter. It isn't the end of the world, but Tox's design violates the user's expectations and puts him at unnecessary risk of being fished.

Just because the cryptographers work for the pro-SJW establishment (I don't know if they personally are SJWs) and the Tox developers don't does not make the cryptographers wrong about protocol design. Tox really should have used CurveCP. Social justice has not yet corrupted the math part of the cryptographers' brains. You don't have to defend a protocol that isn't as good as it should be to say it was arrogant and stupid of them to demand that Tox shut down.

Can you elaborate on that? Looks like it's a replacement at the TCP layer.

With no threat to fork, the users have no rights. It only exists as a right wing shitposting platform. You can be censored just the same there.
GNU/Social is a microblogging system that's federated, like email. Policies are only enforceable at an instance level. Thus, the users can migrate as they please, or even spread themselves over multiple instances. Work is being done to allow account data to seamlessly move between instances as well.

Except the network got along with all manner of political dissidents and degenerates from all walks of life for over a decade without them.
You can unfollow, you can block, you can choose your instance, you have a plethora of tools at your disposal to avoid content you just can't stand.
Mastodong added explicit trigger warnings because the userbase is tumblr and can't conceive of existing without them, because the content they can't stand is unilaterally mundane everyday content, because they are infants.

No such option. Any solution you choose may end up throttled and whole protocols like IPFS or Tor may be blocked by a government-level actor. The best solution is to not have "a place", but to put your writing in many places (pastebin, web hosts) located in different countries, preferably geopolitically hostile to each other, and Tor wikis on top of that. You can IPFS and Bit Torrent, but those are not private; peers will know your IP.

Alternatives I know of are bitchute and vidme. They're both essentially voat and have no interesting content whatsoever.

Dedicated apps are just plain better than using a mobile site. I don't know why anybody would want to use their browser when an app could just work with an api in a much faster, cleaner way

It could simply have themes - official ones and allow for custommade ones too.

Why would I want a thousand apps if I could use one web browser app to browse a thousand sites? Seems like a waste of space tbqh.

Most mobile sites work fine anyway. I imagine the push for everyone to have their own snowflake app is for better paying ad deals.

Go away styx.

I decided to give Gab a try. Can't really tell you what I think of it since it can't stay up long enough for me to actually do anything on it.

>>61996970
gab will be shut down because its not decentralized like GNU Social

>>61990060
what happened to nntpchan? does it still exist?

What about decentralized services like bitchute? What about using distributed networks like ipfs?

You're as bad as mass media and SJWs. I guess I'm "literally Hitler" because I don't agree with you. :^)

>The foremost problem is that federation is a lie. Well, it’s partially a lie. The benefits described above do work; if you send a message to anyone at @[email protected], it will be delivered to them. But if @custom.website is a domain that mastodon.social deems inappropriate, replies from that users on that domain don’t show up in your notifications or on your feed, unless you explicitly follow them.
Huh, this is actually pretty awful, funny how this seems to be swept under the rug

Apparently pawoo (pixiv's instance) is already banned from federation?

Thanks~ the front end is react and back end is firebase.
>Did you write the whole thing from scratch?
Yeah, more or less. But I did use an icon set and a few pre-made components like react-textarea-autoresize and react-motion-ui-pack. Pic related are the dependencies.

>If your private key is stolen, you are fucked. All bets are off.
That's a really shitty excuse.

First, victim can never immediately tell when their private key has been compromised. It's not a physical item that gets stolen. So there is some time between action being taken and attacker using the key to do harm.

Second, good crypto is not only supposed to protect you when everything works fine, it's also supposed to minimize damage in situations when things go awry. After all, Tox supposedly cares about perfect secrecy, but who needs that in a magical world when keys are never compromised?

Also, the bug you've linked just shows current pitiful state of Tox. Toxcore is a mess, development slowed to a crawl when irungentoo left, all other original devs are slowly leaving too. Even iphydf admitted that he has poor understanding of how toxcore is structured, and he barely works on the project now. Hell, Tox devs still use IRC for their dev chat instead of Tox, what happened to good old dogfooding?

Face it, Tox is pretty much dead.

>>61998585
*perfect forward secrecy
*where keys are never compromised

But you get that from context

Keep it that way.

They are adding and updating the server's it was on a small budget before it got a milluon invested into it.

If you had first-grade reading comp you'd see that it's a known issue, and will be fixed.
>development slowed to a crawl when irungentoo left
Literally the opposite of what actually happened.
Keep making shit up and talking over centralized plaintext :^)

Are you a regular d* user? How's the federation between it and GNU Social? Have you found an active pod?

>>62000719
It's not gonna get fixed, the same way devs can't fix groupchats or multidevice
Again, tox is so terrible that even devs use IRC instead of tox

>I don't know what I'm talking about because I get all of my information from HF tweens on 4chan instead of git and chatlogs
all of your posts
stay loud and proud

Federation is shit. Am I to trust some random schmuck to handle my data instead of a centralized server?
>hurr durr single point of failure
And your solution is to increase the number of points of failure? Yeah, perhaps that has its benefits, but don't pretend it's some holy grail compared to the alternative. And yeah, you can host your own server. Now you're spending money and have to maintain a server which ideally should be on 24/7. And you trust yourself on this? Fuck off sweet innocent summer child.

Don't get full of yourselves.

I see someone recommending Minds. They're not too bad, but they're on the road to suicide with their own plans to decentralize their platform (which means shitty federation bullshit).

Why don't you all do a favor and kys. Howboutdat?

What's the recommended mastodon android client?

>>62002004
Read the thread. Mastodon is bluearmpit harpie appropriation of an existing shitposter network called GNU Social. The soymales just made a meme client in Ruby and run an instance where they ban nazis and called it their own.

The reason no one here knows where c-toxcore featuredev is done is because we got tired of you.
The population of 4chan is largely code-illiterate streetshitters who enjoy spreading nonsensical FUD because that's lulzy, I guess.
This became sharply, sharply worse after the exodus, and you'll notice that's when we really started tapering off on making announcements here.
Anyone who can grow two brain cells and elevate themselves a little is perfectly capable of finding out where all development and discussion is done. But I'm not surprised that none of you have.


Just thought I would let you all know.
