thats google safety net which only allows apps that use that check to be installed on google verified OS’s which graphene cant become

you can do a puppet bridge for your discord account so it bridges all the guilds your in to matrix without needing discord guild admins to add the bridge to it

did you host your own matrix homeserver or use matrix.org? that can change how fast it feels massively and yeah built in moderation tools are pretty much nonexistant https://github.com/the-draupnir-project/Draupnir is the only moderation bot that you can run to ban users from all rooms at once if they break your rules and lets you subscribe to banlists so if a user spams in other rooms that have write access and gets added they’ll be banned from your rooms as well

cinny.in is much closer to discord then element

I use the android app quick novel which uses a bunch of sources

I read this as fat 💀

isnt signal a nonprofit? not a corporation

From what I saw it was quite left leaning when I used it

There’s a beta you can try using a test branch app on their staging servers, you’ll need to make a new account with your number again and there has been issues where its leaked your number

I love how literal devs had to come in and ask them to stop lmao

Ntfy for apps that support it

Graphene community isn’t toxic at all, there’s some people who you really shouldn’t listen to seriously for advice but other then that it’s like all community’s with some good eggs and bad eggs

I’ll be very shocked if Ragnarok doesnt come to PC eventually

not all games on steam use the DRM

Not yet but it’s being worked on and it’s close now

Use a different homeserver for matrix and it’s way faster then the default matrix.org one for the element clients servers joinmatrix.org is a good list

Everyone doesn’t use the main HS sure it is alot of people but alot also don’t use it

Some bridges support encryption and even if they don’t there’s a tool to make it so they do pantalaimon

That would be nice yeah, maybe have a list of trackers in the options the user can control to add to torrents automatically

I’ve seeded clearnet torrents to I2P peers many times with BiglyBT without those torrents having I2P trackers, so it’s definitely possible
