  • Horrific read!

    Yet another reason why I use F-Droid and RethinkDNS with "Block newly installed apps by default" in the universal firewall rules enabled.

    Only the absolute neccessary apps that I can't live without (like my Swedish bank's app) will be installed from Play Store.

  • I have my own personal finance tracker, Keizai. I found mainly Firefly III as bloated and since I wanted a simple, straight-forward finance tracker, I created my own.

    Please bare in mind that Keizai is not yet finished. The development is still on-going, but it's a slow process. I have multiple projects in hand and with autism and other plans for a better, more healthier life, the development for all my projects tend to be slow.

    And yes, you can self-host Keizai.

  • XMPP. Oh, wait, company based.

    • Signal if you want phone number based signups.
    • SimpleX Chat if you want to experience full privacy.
    • Threema if you want basically the same as SimpleX Chat, but want to give them money first.

    But XMPP would be the best option. Snikket is recommended for easy setup.

  • I use EndeavourOS Xfce because it's Arch with pacman and not Flathub or Snap. Plus, I love the simplicity and the performance boost you get with Xfce (even if it's a small boost with a modern gaming PC).

  • They force you to give them your phone number. No phone number = not allowed to use Signal. Plus, Signal uses servers from Big Tech (just search for it on reddit).

    XMPP (mainly Snikket) is the best lightweight option.

  • It is very important to mention that you mean end-to-end encryption. The data is stored encrypted when using cloud chat. Nothing (besides phone number what I know) is stored in plain text on Telegram's servers.

    I am not defending Telegram. I am just stating facts.
