I often wonder if yours is an automated account, but did you read the comments?

because most of us know this is bullshit

I agree with the depicted actual developers, but this is still funny

that’s bullshit. spaces are not valid in URLs. they always need to be URL encoded. I see you complaining about such manual work, but that does not make sense, as it just shouldn’t happen!

where are you getting that URL? ddg has been inserting a + sign in place of any spaces for a very, very long time. this is not even a solved problem, it’s not a problem at all!

it’s enabled, what isn’t is offering to save your passwords

the launcher might become a very similar but stripped down version.

if you liked to have more features, try the lawnchair launcher from f-droid. its a fork with readded features. you need to have the izzydroid repo activated to find it

I was preparing my verbal pitchforks, but it seems they have chosen a middle ground. they will only require verification for adult content, and only in the EU and UK.

which means that if you don’t need adult content or you can use a VPN, then it seems it won’t affect you. so they are probably doing the bare minimum required by law

why not codeberg? kind of lightweight on JS, but especially compared to gitlab.

and that’s good for who? who are “they” to begin with?

that would probably work. I think the IP does not need to be static, but there can be problems if your IP changes often, and it’s not updated quickly in DNS.

the only hard requirement for a local headscale (for usage over the internet) is that you are not behind a CG-NAT, and you can forward a port to your server in your router

but for the love of god and your own benefit, put a name constraint directly on the root cert

you don’t strictly need a VPS, what you need is a (mostly?) static IP address, that is especially not behind CG-NAT. if your ISP won’t give that to you, you get a VPS, because one of the most important jobs of headscale is NAT hole punching and patching your devices in

the first paragraph is not like in the post. did they rephrase it because of the “as it does” part?

this is the current version:

Tailscale recently announced our Series C fundraise. We were grateful for all the community support, but the Internet also raised a few of its collective eyebrows, wondering whether this meant the dreaded “enshittification” was coming next.

the internet archive does not show your version either: https://web.archive.org/web/20250702140430/https://tailscale.com/blog/evitability-of-enshittification

where did you get that quote from?

as I heard that’s pretty common at oracle, but it’s good to spread the word

it would not be a trusted service, but at most legally. just like centralized chat scanning systems.

It doesn’t even have to store the verification result, if you don’t want to

“if you don’t want to” lol. you won’t decide whether they will store anything, silly. the control is theirs, cemented, the law is on their side, the political narrative will be on their side (think of the children!!), they’ll do whatever the fuck they want.

that does not seem to be right. 21 is way too high, and also this would effectively be a universal restraining order kids and not-so-kids, and adults. I don’t want to go to jail just because of walking by a kid or a young adult, let alone converse with them, only sick people would actually endorse this.

but also pagers only do one way communication, don’t they? that is worthless here. the goal is not to just put a GPS tracker to kids, but to give them a simple communication device.

a heavy handed approach, but I don’t see one that is not heavy handed, private, and effective enough.

slight modification: mobile phone is ok if it only has a small screen like on old feature phones, no capabilities for mobile data but only calls (that’s probably a software limitation), and no social media apps (or any installable apps).
perhaps wifi capability with a weak antenna, or a wifi interface that only supports low speeds.

private communications is a question though, because phone calls and SMS are anything but private.

hey people, this could work!

and its not like we need to ban kids from the internet, but to only allow them with the active supervision of a parent.

how would you ensure that this stays private? not just from facebook, but completely. as I see it, this would require some form of biometric authentication

the config and databases or the media, you mean?

if so, the former, but I mount the meadia with a read only docker volume just to be sure, because chances are I would never notice it

that’s good to know. when I signed last year I think it was enough to type in my id card’s number and my name and location.
