Signal. Privacy.
Signal. Privacy.
Link to article from main Lemmy❤️ developer about Signal privacy. Mostly fair points. I kinda distrust so centralized services but basically we have no other options (Matrix is buggy in many aspects). What can you say about this article?
You're viewing a single thread.
If someone wants to use Sigbal without Google dependancies, have a look at Molly.
Does anybody know what's happening about Signal creating usernames to add people instead of numbers?
How does s person install that from F-Droid? Molly has an F-Doid repository.
No way through F-Droid. Only GitHub (or Obtainium app)
I'm a big fan of the concept of Obtainum, but to insure anonymity with apps, Obtainum is not an option due to not knowing if apps use GCM or Firebase, that's why F-Droid is safer because of removing any dependencies or not allowing an app like native Signal, because of it's dependencies, that's why I suggested Molly app as a safer modified version of Signal.
Signal FOSS removes all proprietary bits from builds. It has open builds process through GitHub Actions. So builds are good and clean. Why not to use Obtainium then?)
@FarLine99 @lengsel you can get Signal Foss from it's repo !!!
Oh, I am stupid🤣 Here is the link - knil. It has F-Droid repo.
It's seem abandoned, no ?
This branch is 2951 commits behind signalapp:main
It's latest release matches with latest release from GPlay so it is not abandoned in any way. Look at version-FOSS branches, not main (it was not updated a year already).
