A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Proton up people. And get your people on Signal or WIRE.

We’re probably the most boring people day to day and we’ve dove it for a while on general principle. Now, it feels important to have already made that shift.

also XMPP and Matrix/Element.

Also your choices should be impacted by your threat model. Not everyone needs to lock up like they're James Bond.

I managed to get my entire family onto this service and even some friends. That said, they are almost all also using at least WhatsApp, because they are only using Signal to stay in touch with me (since I'm not on WhatsApp).
