Thats messed up if u can do this without consent of whoever you are tracking.

If you are gonna do this the right way, with consent, there's probably free apps that can do this (not sure if there are any privacy friendly ones though, but I believe iphones have a tracking feature that's free).

$10/month is scammy, but they know their target audience ig (abusers probably, like you say).

I had go look up mixue and I now crave ice cream and tea. The hot and cold combo must be amazing. Possibly the cure to brain freeze.

The recent duckduckgo ad campaign will surely help rescue googlers and so does my mission to ensure everyone I know doesn't use google search.

I believe in the underlying message (use linux), but doesn't practically every big company change their privacy policy or tos every 10 minutes.

I don't trust any governmental body, probably for the best.

I like to link to https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crony_capitalism because without the people who abuse the system, it would be a lot better. We need to close these loopholes, but of course rich people have the money to keep them open or find new ones.

Removing loopholes that the cronies exploit and removing tax havens, etc (other tax loopholes) would (in my opinion) make leave us in a much better state that we currently are in.

We hate crony capitalism not just capitalism on its own I believe.

Edit: hope this isnt recycled

I believe their license (GPLv3) doesn't permit modifying the source code without releasing it to anyone who asks for it, but realistically, if it's only code they have written, they won't sue themself over it.

I'm no licensing expert, but that's how I see it.

I didn't mean to say that it's (still) trash, I think it's useable, but there are still a lot of improvements to come.

Element as a client seems to want to do everything, which is probably great for a lot of people, but it (in my experience) has led to a poor user experience (which with more time, will likely improve, they seem to have a lot of backing).

With Element completing voice/video implementation, I imagine it'll be easier for other clients to reference their work when implementing their own support.

Once the other clients get voice support, I will definitely be trying them out again, I'm sure they will make a much simpler experience that works out the box.

The lost keys problem has luckily never happened to me, it usually boils down the user error I believe, but yeah, if it is a user error that happens often, they should figure out some way to fix that (probably a hard problem, which is sort of fixed (i believe) if you use the client on multiple devices, so if you get logged out of your account you can easily authorize your access from another logged in device, eg desktop/mobile).

I agree, I don't think it's trash. From my experience, chatting is very good, voice/video are just the next thing they are tackling.

Better UX will probably come after important features are done.
