Zash (zash@social.umeahackerspace.se)'s status on Saturday, 26-May-2018 14:05:24 UTC Zash Why did browsers remove the option to be asked per site whether to allow cookies? Now, in Firefox, it's way worse than bypassing a self-signed cert. -
pettter ✅ (pettter@social.umeahackerspace.se)'s status on Thursday, 24-May-2018 09:35:15 UTC pettter ✅ Chat protocols are Fun Things to Hack Together, and have some thorny issues that are interesting problems in their own right. However, if your goal is to be The New Thing, don't. You will run into all the same issues that other protocols (notably XMPP) have already had to tackle several times with the current status being An Acceptable Tradeoff. If we want a global communication standard, we should focus on XMPP, as the most general, well-defined and decentralised alternative available, with many different implementation both of servers and clients, not to mention a broad range of small, medium, and large servers. -

Rysiekúr (old account) (rysiek@mastodon.social)'s status on Wednesday, 23-May-2018 17:33:38 UTC Rysiekúr (old account) With all my gripes with# Signal (centralized, non-federated, server-based, Electron-based desktop app), the fact that in my circle of contacts it's not longer the "pretty good solution we should be using" but the "pretty good solution we are using but looking for something better" is such a win.
I just wanted to stop for a second and appreciate that.
If we're talking about the need to move to something better than Signal, we are in a pretty decent place.

MMN-o ✅⃠ (mmn@social.umeahackerspace.se)'s status on Wednesday, 23-May-2018 06:18:47 UTC MMN-o ✅⃠ One of the giant shoulders in that aspect, the federated Instagram style, is https://quit.im (!gnusocial based) by #EnKompisKompis - which is primarily @hannes (also @hannes2peer@quitter.se ) and @3mp0@quitter.se -
MMN-o ✅⃠ (mmn@social.umeahackerspace.se)'s status on Tuesday, 22-May-2018 23:44:43 UTC MMN-o ✅⃠ You mean how !OStatus is kind of exactly that, because it just extends ordinary blogs with some social metadata but in the end it's technically the same thing as a blog's feed beefed up with a push-callback-service instead of reinventing the wheel entirely with ActivityPub? .P

Rysiekúr (old account) (rysiek@mastodon.social)'s status on Saturday, 12-May-2018 12:56:59 UTC Rysiekúr (old account) Oh boy. https://github.com/signalapp/Signal-Desktop/issues/1635
tl;dr Signal Desktop is based on Electron, which in turn is based on Chromium 58-59, and it seems to be affected by bugs that have been fixed in Chrome/Chromium 60-62.
Gotta love #Electron. As somebody said "now everyone is running 5 different instances of old insecure versions of the most scrutinized and attacked application on Earth."
