The problem isnt gmail, the problem is using an email for this purpose. Switching to protonmail wont make a difference. If you want privacy, use a different communications protocol. For example, use signal, and if anyone wants baby updates, they better install it too, cause thats the only way you’ll send them.


Whats the easiest way to contribute to the simplex communication network? When I run a relay node, how do I notify the network that my instance exists


That’s right, “text-generation-webui”. At least its unambiguous lol. Thanks for sharing.


What GPU are you using to run it? And what UI are you using to interface with it? (I know of gpt4all and the generic sounding ui-text-generation program or something)


I think a bigger concern is if someone managed to access bitwarden on a logged in instance. Think, leaving your laptop open, or someone steals it from you. If theres two apps for logging then both apps need to be accessible/compromised.


Best service for filing taxes?
I'm sure doing it manually is the safest, but perhaps there's a least poison for software/services for filing US taxes. What do you recommend? (or, atleast, what do you recommend steering clear of)

What’s the best strategy for changing to GrapheneOS?
I have a google pixel, and I know I could install grapheneOS on it. But I'm very, very hesitant, since I depend so much on my phone. This isn't like distro hopping, where I feel more comfortable hot swapping ssds, or making partitions, or using my desktop while I tinker with my laptop. My phone has a SIM and the service I depend on can't be emulated off this phone. So what do you recommend I do? Should I move my SIM (my phone service, really) to a new phone while I tinker with this one? Can I just blow up the current OS and wing it? Or maybe theres another option that would allow me to bail back to stock android in case something goes wrong. What do you think? EDIT: how I use my phone: about everything I use is from fdroid, with the occassional app from aurora. I do use my banking app to cash checks, but I don't use whatsapp, google pay, which I know arent compatible. So as far as app compatibility I dont think it'll be a problem, Im mostly worried about my phone number not working. I dont know how SIMs work like I should, I just know Ive had the strangest issues in the past with it, so Im hesitant. Thanks for the replies so far.

I don’t know how much content there is to share, so you might be overflowing with things to talk about every week. But I fear that doing so much effort weekly could be unsustainable. I would suggest, or hope you consider, a less freqent blog/podcast, like every other week. I think this would be more modest, and easier to maintain. You wouldn’t need to change to title of the blog, either.

Anyway, this is an exciting project and I’m thankful for your work.


I have the same complaint and I dont know either. You can add at least 5 favorite/bookmarked folders that show underneath, but thats all I know of.


If you need just the id you can always screenshot that barcode or store it in an app like Catima. I dont have any advice for if you need other functionality, sorry.
