The only correct answer lmao.

There really should be a law where the EU gets fined everytime they waste time bringing up the same proposal that has already been shut down multiple times.

let's make encryption illegal*

*for the peasantry, of course.

They really love the idea of giving the political class an exception.

Why are you guys so obsessed with the latest packages? A lot of new stuff doesn't work on older PCs which is also Linux's target market.

I don't know the details, but I hope they will at least remove the VPN and crypto wallet integrations from the default installed version.

You still have to double check for mistakes. But even that takes less time than writing a 3-4 sentences semi-formal email from scratch.

In any case, your emails aren't safe either, mate. Even if you don't use AI, the person on the other side most likely will and your emails will be scanned just the same. Nobody is safe. Which is why this Thunderbird feature doesn't excite me in the least.

We probably never sent as many emails as we do today, and there are bigger priorities. Wanna blame someone, blame the overly pompous corporate world.

I mean, have you seen how effective Tik Toks one is?

I mean, I disagree, but thanks. Good dialogue.

Did you just read "Data minimization" and assume it means that data collection should be minimized at all times?

There's a reason why when you fill the GDPR consent popup all advertising companies have the "legitimate interest" on by default, because it falls under the "data that is necessary for their specified purposes", which in their case means the purpose of displaying relevant ads and paying the app developer some money for it. And even then, you're allowed to turn that legitimate interest OFF.

I'm the one who's not sure if you're trolling or just a shill. How many rubles are they paying you?

Disable DMs? (lemm.ee)

Is there a way to disable DMs? I keep being spammed by users from an instance called sh.itjust.works promoting some weird out-of-platform personal profiles.

They usually send this stuff and then immediately seem to get banned, but I still see their stuff since images are displayed by default. Seems like a big oversight to allow this.

Is there a way to block receiving DMs? Or at least have some sort of Accept/Decline dm feature like on Reddit?

Pretty please. I got used to using it on the other platform that shall not be named, and now I can't live without it.

It's free, helps low vision readers and can be downloaded directly from the Braile Institute.
