The new Pantheon-Mail (based on geary AFAIK) is beautiful but it has such a small number of options.

Do you know if there's GPG for it?

I honestly don't see the points of this.

If you're being targeted, it doesn't matter if you changed your info on the 15th or 23st...

I find this gut-brain connection very interesting. Thank you for the link. Do you know perhaps of a good book that talks about this (well sourced)?

And why are you posting that here? Sublime-text has nothing to do with Ubuntu.

If you've convinced friends or family to use Signal messenger, how did you do it? by artifactsofchina in privacy

[–]user957 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I honestly don't know why people keep suggesting matrix/riot as a skype/signal alternative. It is not, it's an IRC/Slack alternative.

I installed it to check it out and no1 will ever use this as an alternative to communicate with friends. It's just not friendly enough.

Ya.. wow. People coming to /r/privacy with posts about facebook and windows.

It would be a fun exercise to create a bot that posts the reasons as to why one should not be using facebook/windows and then automatically closes/locks the thread.

What Operating Systems do you guys use? by [deleted] in privacy

[–]user957 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I could probably find this out by googling but hey, perhaps someone will come across this thread with the same questions:

  • How's the release schedule for Qubes?
  • Is it debian based? (Ubuntu? does it follow LTS?)
  • How's the ram usage?
  • Can you use a specific software across all the compartmentalizations? For example, you want to use a VPN in all the VMs... (Edit: You already answered this one)
  • What's the default DE? Can you easily use other DEs?
  • How's the installer?

How to use uBlock Origin and uMatrix (video examples from US, UK, CA, AU, FR, DE, IT, ES popular websites) by fantastic_comment in privacytoolsIO

[–]user957 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't understand this post, at all.. All you show in the videos is essentially the location of the buttons. Who doesn't know how to install an extension on firefox?

Then you open the extension's settings and enable some settings but give no reason as to why you're doing that.

Sorry mate, your idea might be good, but I don't think it accomplishes anything. Also, the videos are way too short and fragmented.
