I think microsoft makes file sharing programs to crash (except torrents) Soulseek is constantly crashing, airdc++ also. I think it will be the final push for me to move to linux mint, tried already to do that couple of times always had problems, to that extent that i needed to remove all but one ram and reset bios, but now after a recent windows crash, I had to load bios from usb to make it work again. Maybe someone can give me a helping hand moving all of 8TB music, programs to linux.

@TheGnuMaster Not in any special way. But I think it may be on the horizon soon in a new version. Let me check if its on the gameplan.

@freemo Is it possible to run voting polls on QOTO's instance of Mastodon like on Twitter?

@protonvpn Sans dec'... Je ne suis pas votre compte pour subir de la retape sur le plus grand évènement de compétition musicale... non, ça ne fait pas rêver. Surtout quand ça doit se tenir dans un pays qui bafoue les libertés les plus fondamentales...

"Tant que les Palestiniens ne pourront pas jouir de la liberté, de la justice et de l'égalité des droits, il ne devrait pas y avoir d'affaire avec l'État qui leur refuse leurs droits fondamentaux"

@protonvpn
"To Best Serve the Community" is laughable. We are not stupid.
It is only about making money.

If this is truly your goal you may want to consider a massive boycott coming your way.

What makes you different from Google?

If you know they are "high risk" enough said.

@kirschner Can we please use "Free Software"?
They are not interchangeable terms.
We can all have simple Libre/Freie in there if it helps, but we need to drop the Open Source labels.
The Free Software foundation Europe has become far to comfortable with the term "Open" which is making it very hard to bring the ethics of Free Software into discussion with those who have never heard of it.

@Tutanota I will take this on faith recognizing the concerted efforts to defending our privacy and freedom.
I appreciate your reply.

@TheGnuMaster nothing new. Nothing to be excited about in 2019. Using startpage

@Tutanota
It would be amazing if you actually said something about Julian Assange's situation.
Press Freedom is not selective, it means that everyone including those who we don't like are protected.
For the record I am behind Julian 100%. He has my full support.

Hey ! Fuck you!

Spying, Complicity, Censorship and Political Interference are not only wrong, I won't accept it any more!

I am not allowing my self to be used by you!

Here are 5 alternatives to google (search)

1. searx
2. duckduckgo
3. startpage
4. qwant
5. yandex

The above are just some alternatives I know of. As they also have high levels of censorship we as a society should push for better privacy respecting and protecting, censorship free, decentralized and Free/Libre alternatives to Google Search and other things relating to google here.


BKA und FBI nehmen Darknet-Marktplatz-Betreiber fest - ganz ohne ein Verbotsgesetz, das Anonymität und Verschlüsselung im Netz bedroht. Stoppt das "#Ermöglichungsgesetz"! ("Ermöglichung" von Straftaten)
