@dangoodin quickly skimmed, the "CSE" seems to just be storing keys on their server. you grab the keys from their server and decrypt the message. it's not E2EE.

@dangoodin They explicitly say they are stored on their servers AFAICT. From that link:

The search feature is really bad in #Pleroma. Doesn't exist (last time I checked) in #Mitra.
Search is really important for bringing people to the #Fediverse.

This is crazy:
Sorry, we do not know the proper place to report a problem with misskey.io.
https://github.com/misskey-dev/misskey/issues/15713#issuecomment-2756181286
There goes any possibility of my recommending #Misskey.

@aliceif The creator of Misskey doesn't run Misskey and doesn't know how I can report an issue with the biggest Misskey-but-actually-not-Misskey server? Yeah, to me, that's a huge red flag. -

@aliceif If you were the creator of Pleroma and you did that then yeah I'd think the same thing.
It's not a good sign if the creator and lead dev of a piece of software isn't using said software, and on top of that is confusing others by mucking up their own brand in this way. -

I'd like to see the #Fediverse win.
I think #Pleroma and other efficient alternative implementations can help it do this.
But they are missing critical features:
• Real account migration (posts and all)
• Algorithmic feeds
• Better search (with filters similar to X)
• Monetization features using cryptocurrency. And it must be cryptocurrency. Either #LightningNetwork or #Monero / #XMR -

What do I mean by "the ban situation"?
I mean a few things:
• One instance banning another. This is horrible UX. Nobody wants another person deciding who they are or aren't allowed to follow. But that's how the #Fediverse works with public instances. Each public instance has a moderator and sometimes they ban entire instances. This is a real problem if that entire instance has many legitimate users on it.
• An admin banning a user on their own server. This leads to real headaches for that user and makes them think that "the #fediverse " (as a whole) is broken. If migrating accounts were easier and more streamlined, this wouldn't be as big of a problem, and if they are running their own server in the first place, they wouldn't be banned to begin with. -

We need more #Fediverse servers that are run by individuals.
The ideal social network configuration / infrastructure is one server per individual. This is pure-P2P and it is also what is most ideal in terms of moderation.
Large #Fediverse servers are a problem in terms of moderation and user-experience.
You just can't expect real freedom of speech from large servers. And that leads to bans, and bans lead to poor UX.
So the more efficient a server implementation is, the easier it is to run, the more individuals will be able to self-host, and the better the ban situation will be. -

The server also needs to make it simple to migrate from one domain name to another.
It should be easy, in other words, for me to change from @crib.social to something else, without losing any accounts, posts, or followers.
These are the kinds of changes that are needed for the #Fediverse to compete and win in the social network battle. -

So what is the ideal we should be aiming for?
That ideal is one server per user.
That seems like a crazy high bar, but at least we should aim for it, because in terms of UX, that in fact is the ideal for everyone involved.
This requires making self-hosting extremely inexpensive. That means #Mastodon is a big no-go. It's way too resource intensive. -

Apple has taken software developers hostage.
In order to distribute software on a Mac, developers must pay a ransom fee to #Apple of $99/year.
And then Apple can still decide to block their app.
The world needs to figure a way out of this quagmire. -

There is a global conspiracy to connect new vehicles to the Internet.
The reason is not to offer you features. It is to track and control you and your vehicles.
We need an "Internet/Surveillance - free" label for vehicles, like "Organic" for food. -

@bot @vic Don't ask me for evidence if you aren't interested in it. Really annoying when people do that. I usually end up blocking such people.

"If you think chemtrails are a conspiracy… [proceeds to give evidence of chemtrails]"
Chemtrails are a conspiracy. A genuine conspiracy.
Nowhere in the definition of "conspiracy" does it say "wrong thing" or "nonsense", yet many use the word this way. 🤕
