Everything is better than Twitter I guess.

Is this running on a modified version of Mastodon?

Money.

AI will improve and this will be a multi trillion dollar market. Big tech is in a race to be the biggest.

We don’t need it and should be focussing on important things but yay capitalism right?

You can find some more if you do a quick search on netherlands drug violence. Politicians are ignoring this problem completely. It’s a growing problem in other European countries as well, Sweden for example.

This article draws a very colorful picture of our country lol.

Fact of the matter is it is turning into a narco state quickly with drug related shootings and bombings happening almost daily.

Police and the justice system in general is understaffed.

So please do not learn from us, we’re far from a role model.

Yes, this is what spoilt brats do. There is no masterplan here.

Also no way to block people that are not on your contact list. I get a lot of spam lately by scammers and the likes.

Deranged people attract one another.

They probably still have usernames, phone numbers and access logs with IP adresses even though the chats are encrypted.

Telegram never or rarely cooperates with authorities in investigations into terrorism, child abuse, drug trafficking, weapons marketplaces, etc. This is probably the main reason they arrested the guy.

Yeah that’s not going to happen.

I have it firewalled so my vault is not accessible from the internet, only from home or vpn to home.

Technically yes if my vault gets compromised I would be fucked. I have it firewalled tho and only accessible from home (or VPN to home). So should be pretty secure. I used google authenticator but found it a major pita (can’t even search entries on Android, wtf?). If they make this more user friendly I’ll gladly switch back to a seperate OTP store.

Recently started using Bitwarden and it works really well. You can even ditch authenticator because it has OTP built in too.

I selfhost it though because I trust nobody with this type of sensitive data, encrypted or not.
