What's the point though? Cash is anonymous anyways and you are not taking away power from fiat currency at all with such an awkward and non-mass-adoption friendly method
There are several ways to obtain Monero anonymously.
Simplest and most well-known:
Buy Bitcoin (non-anonymously), then exchange Bitcoin for Monero. Never touch this Monero receive address again and use your other Monero addresses for spending (u have infinite).
Other method:
Use localmonero.co and directly exchange cash for Monero with a well-reputed stranger. Anonymous cash-by-mail possible.
(Tiling) window managers like i3, dwm or sway open apps instantly. If not, then this is mostly because the app you want to open is bloated/ too complex.
I really like the idea of Celluloid. However, last time I tried, it somehow felt less performant than pure mpv. Colors a bit washed out and not perfectly smooth playback. Should try it again soon.
Not necessarily. You can use any server/pidgeon to send your message while your contact uses a different server to send. Also you can at any time change which servers you use and it is planned that the servers get rotated automatically in the future. There is no point in time where one pidgeon is responsible for multiple connections, you are using a bunch of pidgeons and swap them out all the time.
That's why I'm using SimpleX Chat, there is no network-wide identity so no data can be collected. It's a very clever architecture, actually exactly the carrier pidgeon scenario you describe, but in digital form. https://simplex.chat/#how-simplex-works
I've found my solution.
Okay, I get where you're coming from. Signal is private enough for you, while I would feel more private if there is also no metadata about me.
For the toilet example, it's more like that a foreign, unrelated person (like the Signal Foundation and by extension the government with a national security letter) knows about your shit-taking, not just family at home or colleagues who happen to be there. This would be a concern for me.
Considering that anything you post here should be public, the only real privacy concern is your identity. So yes, Lemmy respects your privacy because you are anonymous.
WhatsApp is fundamentally bad and anti-consumer because it is proprietary. When people are not allowed to understand, change and redistribute the source code, the people will ALWAYS be milked and abused in some way. Trust me. LINE is also closed source and unfree, so it would only be a matter of time until that company fucks you up and you want to switch to another messenger.
The most popular open source/ free messenger would be Signal. Conceptually the most promising one in my opinion is SimpleX Chat, if you want to be a bit more adventurous
Anonymity guarantees that many aspects (all?) of privacy can't be violated. When e.g. Signal doesn't know who you are (anonymous), metadata about you doesn't violate your privacy either. What else do you need?
Signal does nothing more than hiding message content, which by your own words is "of course not" privacy. Signal could be a lot more private, but it is not and it doesn't want to be. I'm done talking to you, I can't get much clearer than that..
