That sounds awful. What are some of your best posts?

Have you noticed that these johnny-come-lately websites constantly have these conversations in every lemmy.ml community reply section? Well, it turns out they are also constantly haranguing the main developers in their Matrix chatroom. This place is a hoot it turns out I should have come earlier

Get a grip. So, assuming you realize that you just admitted Canada has a double standard for banning subsidized electric vehicles, why not force the US to offer you a better deal? Tesla has no issue operating in China. Where is your spine?

Is that a yes or no?

Nice, I'm gonna try that. I use SingleFile.

Question, would you say that Teslas are artificially cheap?

Never cared for the way this fellow tries to argue that everything is too difficult to be useful. I've gotten plenty of friends and family on XMPP and the clients that don't have encryption on by default are easy to remember. Really blowing it out of proportion.

Honestly, what do security researchers like this even know about normal people? They sit through all kinds of inconveniences to use Facebook. This is a thought experiment.

Some of these are valid criticisms, of course, a lot of XMPP stuff feels like it from the 2010s. It's still the only real option. Matrix client or server is bloated garbage, theu moved server fixes into a walled garden, its development is dependent on funding from the USA National Endowment for Democracy technology fund. Signal has similar funding issues and is very shady with its centralization, trust issues, demanding phone numbers. Sets users up to leak all kinds of stuff in notifications like Matrix.

The strange insistence that only Signal meets their requirements makes me skeptical, as does the way they have operated in Github threads. They seem like an emotional nightmare to work with.

You will cure the chlamydia I worked hard to give my daughter over my cold dead body! 😡

The entire US economy has been running off of an asset megabubble that demands global dollar recycling via Wall St. and property for decades now. This is much worse than 2008 as there is no cushioning. We will see what 20+ of doubling down looks like in the end.

Yeah and most of the DNA tests are fake but ppl can't pay to prove it

Well, that's kind of like asking me to present both sides of it, which I can do, but not on the bus, I'll circle back. In the meantime though, consider that is why most people believe he did it, along with leaked documents the public should not even had. Would that be at the forefront if there were solid evidence against him?
