Here to clarify!

Revanced patches the official YT music app! It makes it more convenient by removing stuff like ads, among with other tweaks you can see in the app. You’ll still technically use their app (a modified version of it) but they won’t get any revenue. The artists also won’t, so be sure to donate to them or buy their albums if you like their stuff!

Also, apparently the app can’t open on my phone. I checked the logcat and it’t trying to make a division by 0 which instantly crashes the app, and I can’t tell them because you need to contact support through the app to be in contact with someone.

Thankfully, my bank apps supports it so I can do it this way (even with root) but it’s a bit dangerous if you can’t access the app for any reason and can’t talk to a human at all, that would lock you out of your money

Le pire, c’est que si ils avaient utilisé Copilot pour traduire, ils n’auraient sûrement pas fait cette erreur haha!

Thanks for the list! Although most of the time it’s advised to not use multiple adblocker in tandem, because they might conflict with each other and get detected by the website. For example, uBlock origin has, in its settings, an option to disable JavaScript and in the filter list, an option to block cookie banners “Cookie notices”. But if all of these work for you that’s great!

Ca ne concerne pas vraiment les ebooks mais il y a l’initiative citoyenne européenne Stop Killing Games qui demande aux éditeurs de jeux de rendre les jeux jouables même après la fin de support sans nécessiter de connexion à des serveurs gérés par les éditeurs. Vous pouvez la signer si vous voulez car c’est un premier pas vers le fait de pouvoir garder nos achats dématerialisés!

Well, thanks for sharing the app, the most alternatives, the better!

No better time than the present to switch to OpenStreetMap

For Android, I use OsmAnd~ which uses OpenStreetMap data and allows you to download maps to calculate routes offline, something Google Maps couldn’t do for routes by foot and by bike last time I tried.

It also has better coverage for some small paths in natural areas like forests. Give it a try!

D’accord 😊

I have no idea about this, but as of now anyone can register.

For reference, CSAM is Belgium’s government portal and a system of login, as far as I know, so I assume it would be used to check if someone is a minor at the time of registration

Child safety is important but implementing this would kind of defeat the purpose of a privacy focused app.

I agree that just gatekeeping children and therefore verifying everyone with a government platform, but then it raises the question on how to improve child safety on an app that’s self-hostable with not even user IDs to identify the users?

I don’t have an answer to that, but I don’t like just saying “This solution is bad”, I always try to add “So try this instead, because XXX”

The most privacy focused messaging app I know is SimpleX Chat, it has no user IDs, is FOSS, e2e encrypted with an option to use TOR, give it a try!

It’s actually not to set your account languages (like the options in your user settings) but to set your post and comment languages, instead of always being “unspecified” by default now it’ picks your prevoius language picked on your last post or comment!

I did not know about it, so I just posted it there! Thanks for the heads up!

Hey, if you want, I have made a Firefox add-on to automayically remember your last selected language in your posts and comments and auto select it next time! Give it a try! It doesn’t really improve much but it’s still something!

Hé ben, je suis content d’avoir supprimé mon compte, si c’est pour que Reddit supprime juste les commus à propos de trucs concernant lesquels la plate-forme n’est pas d’accord!

En plus ce sont des commus NSFW donc qui n’apparaissent pas dans le fil des utilisateurs (donc uniquement visible par les personnes qui les cherchent) et ils ne peuvent pas faire l’excuse de “Ce n’était pas modéré” car sur reddit un modo de ces subreddit a fait une action modo il y a 1h avant le ban

Il se peit que çe soit lié au project 2025, mais ce n’est pas sûr :

Pornography, manifested today in the omnipresent propagation of transgender ideology and sexualization of children, for instance, is not a political Gordian knot inextricably binding up disparate claims about free speech, property rights, sexual liberation, and child welfare. It has no claim to First Amendment protection. Its purveyors are child predators and misogynistic exploiters of women. Their product is as addictive as any illicit drug and as psychologically destructive as any crime. Pornography should be outlawed. The people who produce and distribute it should be imprisoned. Educators and public librarians who purvey it should be classed as registered sex offenders. And telecommunications and technology firms that facilitate its spread should be shuttered.

@tapdattl@lemmy.world Hey, I’m late but I may have found something you like! It’s not for S/MIME but for OpenPGP keys, another method of email signing and encryption which does not require the certification by an authority (Actalis)

It’s a website to list all OpenPGP public keys, and I know thunderbird (for desktop at least) automatically looks there whenever you write an email to an address to see if it has a public key.

As far as I understand, there are some advantages and disadvantages on OpenPGP, mainly :

• Actalis generates your private key, so if you follow the S/MIME tutorial they’ll be able to decrypt your messages. With OpenPGP it’s done locally on your computer so you don’t need to send your private key to anyone.
• However, there is no way to easily revocate an OpenPGP key, so if yours leak, you can’t just go on your Actalis dashboard and revocate it.

It’s up to you to pick a method based on your needs!

Well, Google takes 15 to 30% off the in-app purchases made through Google Play, so you would probably be giving back Google their own money anyways, plus it would fool many people who might think they’re giving 10€ when actually they’re only giving 8,50€ or 7€ to Wikipedia and the rest to Google.

Maybe because your community only allowed Mandarin? There can also be a community-wide scope that only allow certain languages, so if the community you post in mandarin-speaking only, that’s why you might not have needed to select anything.

You’re very welcome!
