You can also host your own instance so only you would have any transmitted data. Transparency with users of your service would be a good move in building trust in you and your product.

I'm out by a tent enjoying the full moon so can't read the whole article, but I would be very surprised if it turned out the mute function didn't stops sending audio packets to their servers.

@GC_and_Tech I don't think it's called paranoia when you're right about it. 🤷‍♂️

Linix smartphone products like the Librem 5 and pinephone sport hardware kill switches, a trend I'm hoping Apple might pick up so high end android manufacturers copy them.

Been getting into @Blender. Grabbed a @Raspberry_Pi model, stuck a transparent material on it, highlighted the edges to add a stroke and added a simple rotation animation to it. Pretty pleased with it. #raspberrypi #blender

@Peter4PRnow @NadiaWhittomeMP People could still choose other service providers. I support the idea of national net but I for one would go with a service provider of my choice that I would pay for.

It's not like you can't have both. 🤷‍♂️

@frankieelois @delilahlahlah @Fago712 Imagine studying dance and sociology and then voting for conservatives. I can not even begin to fathom that blatant disconnect.

[Caddy Web Server @caddyserver]

Self-hosted servers are not down today 😁
