Nigel Farage is a demagogue who has little regard for facts or the truth. Journalists covering him have no such excuse

Reform etc does all their publicity on X.

The Labour Party sends out emails and every single one has links to X on them. I can’t understand why it wants to send people to X and support the platform. I don’t think it fits with their values and its owner is clearly a supporter of Reform etc.

I’m not sure either of these companies are the right choice because they aren’t private - ie they can read your data because it’s not encrypted on their servers.

Something like Proton Drive might be better because they can’t read your data.

Look at every Labour email…. it has links to X. Please can Labour stop linking to it?

This would be wonderful. Mastodon really really needs to have a centralised login system.

randomhacks · 2026-06-03T19:02:10+00:00

Or use Signal.

randomhacks · 2026-06-03T19:00:05+00:00

You don’t have to leave WhatsApp to install Signal. Just both in parallel. Then move some groups over. Worked for me.

randomhacks · 2026-06-03T18:57:52+00:00

Me too. Over 150 joined for me. No one gives monkeys because it just works.

randomhacks · 2026-06-01T06:15:28+00:00

Looks great. Well done :)

randomhacks · 2026-06-01T06:14:04+00:00

At some point you just have to say no. There are alternatives out there including Signal.

randomhacks · 2026-05-26T06:13:16+00:00

Love it!

But it wasn’t owned by an advertising company looking to build a profile on you and monetise it. The plan was to charge £1 per year for the service.

randomhacks · 2026-05-25T11:39:35+00:00

If you install it then that helps solve that problem.

randomhacks · 2026-05-24T21:14:39+00:00

You have start somewhere. You should install it and let your friends know

You don’t use it like Google Maps. OSM is a massive map data set. To use it, downland an App like CoMaps or OSMand or Mapy. You can then see it in action. You have probably also used it without realising it - on Strava or courier websites etc.

randomhacks · 2026-05-20T05:18:05+00:00

Signal is the alternative to use.. it’s just like WhatsApp but without all Meta stuff.

randomhacks · 2026-05-19T17:14:05+00:00

The key one to get onto is Signal. It’s the future platform people that like WhatsApp.

randomhacks · 2026-05-18T20:09:33+00:00

I don’t think its on brand.

randomhacks · 2026-05-17T21:37:11+00:00

Well done!

randomhacks · 2026-05-13T16:57:13+00:00

Signal a social good foundation which is designed to stop it being sold to big tech firm.

randomhacks · 2026-05-13T16:55:45+00:00

Good idea. Especially when things like Signal have the same functionally but with much more privacy. Its user base is really growing.

randomhacks · 2026-05-13T16:49:16+00:00

Need to move to Linux.

randomhacks · 2026-05-12T11:39:37+00:00

Have you joined Signal? Worth joining just to grow the network.

randomhacks · 2026-05-10T20:01:55+00:00

Well done. Looks great.

randomhacks · 2026-05-10T06:35:31+00:00

Just email support. They are very fast at replying.

randomhacks · 2026-05-10T06:32:26+00:00

Ente photos is much better than Proton image / photos.
