Do you have any info on Viber being a bad service privacy-wise? It’s a lesser-known messenger that prides itself on its privacy policy but I can’t find any info on it being the case or not.

I just simply sent a message to everyone I kept in touch on Telegram to switch to Matrix/Element and guided them through the registration to a local homeserver thanks to one of my friends’ blog posts.
The easiest way to convince your friends to switch is to just make the switch and help them sign up and use the service.
It’s completely open and it’s just another fee you can pay. Switch to KeePass if you want restriction-free password management.
This site covers the social cooling effect of these services and how the data you give out may be used against you by banks, insurance companies etc. It’s worth reading through (4 minutes). https://www.socialcooling.com/
Which TED talk are you talking about? Can you post a link?

Your comment made me crave for a cuppa. I’ll make something green.
Be sure to also check out dontkillmyapp.com to see if your device has unorthodox battery saving techniques that hinder your notifications’ behaviour.
You can migrate your account using this tool from Element: https://ems.element.io/tools/matrix-migration
Yes, it does make your DMs be under the rooms section, but you and your friends can input the command /converttodm
into Element’s web/desktop client (on mobile, it doesn’t work as far as I know), and you’re back to normal.
Because of its federated nature, Matrix shares tremendously large amounts of metadata between instances, even though the messages (and I believe the usernames you send to, but someone correct me on this) themselves are encrypted.
On the flip side, Signal requires you to sign up using your phone number. Some Matrix instances only require you to choose a username and be done with it.
I don’t know why, but my instance seems to not index them for some reason. Some communities had some posts when visiting from my instance but after a few hours, all the posts disappeared and some NSFW communities have become empty. What could be the reason for this?

I recommend checking out mLauncher which is a fork of Olauncher with additional features like changing font size or removed internet permission.
I use mLauncher, a fork of OLauncher. I like how simple and clean my screen is.
Speaking about notifications, did you check out your phone’s battery conserving settings? My friends having a Samsung or Xiaomi also have this issue due to aggressive restrictions on less-used apps. You can find more info and workarounds here: https://dontkillmyapp.com
Renoise is an excellent tracker-based DAW with Linux support (you still have to find Linux-compatible VSTs though). It changed the way I write music.
EDIT: I know there are FOSS trackers like MilkyTracker. If you want an alternative, I can recommend it, even though it doesn’t offer the same amount of features as Renoise (e.g. VST or effect support).
I tried editing my
config.yml
as the guide suggests but the problem persists. The problem seems to be that I’m using MariaDB instead of MySQL (pdo_mysql
is compatible with MariaDB). Is there anything more I can do or should I try installing MySQL?EDIT: Purging MariaDB (Debian repo ships this instead of MySQL) and reinstalling it with
sudo apt install default-mysql-server
fixed the problem. Thank you.
