Some users report that they are receiving phishing emails from other Tutanota accounts. We've implemented a very obvious design distinction so that you always know what's fake. ๐Ÿ˜ƒ๐Ÿ‘‡

My environmentalism: wearing the same t-shirt two days in a row.

Seriously!

Washing my clothes half as often, literally means using half the water and half the soap and half the electricity. And the clothes last longer, too. And the washer.

The limiting factor here is keeping my lovely man-smell in check... and social pressure. I've actually had people judge me for this! People can get aggressively dogmatic about the most insignificant things.

Companies usually work for the people that fund them in the first place. That is not an issue and it is something natural. The real issue is who fund the company?

Purism has been funded by the people.

@aral There's a possibilty it works on X11 but not Wayland.
(If it's broken in general, and then fixed, it might still not work on Wayland, as it is very restrictive on grabbing content, but I could also be wrong about how that screen reader works)

Polarisation is toxic.

Every time we force people to pick a side... they may not pick ours. Do it over and over and over again? The expected result is to push everyone away.

Making the world better needs to be an inclusive, forgiving project.

In my opinion, obviously.

By the way, I know all of this because I've been handing out custom per-use email addresses for years. Makes it easy to find when someone sells you out.

I just wrote a post that talks about user empowerment and how that influences how @purism designs its products, from hardware to software to security to services to social: puri.sm/posts/with-purism-prod

Did you know that with the Librem 5 smartphone you can remove the back and have access to :

- the battery
- a removable OpenPGP smart card
- a removable cellular modem
- and a microSD card so you can expand your storage later on

@an93lofdeath @purism on sale until end of July. But you can have a split payment.

Today we answer the age old question...

What boots faster:
- a Librem 5 smartphone running PureOS (GNU/Linux)
- or a run of the mill Android phone

@david according to @Gargron @todd said that Librem Social is not moderated, but your blog post says harassment can be flagged for moderator attention.
Is this a needless misunderstanding or am I just unable to read between the lines?

I'm new to the fediverse, so no clue if this is reasonable:
Would it be possible to exclude an instance from the global timeline but still peer with it?
As there is no timeline on Librem Social, I don't see that crap. Could that not also be a good global solution?

@Gargron @alexl@mstdn.io @purism
I don't have that in my head. (That's what the quote is for)
I hate it!
If it is illegal, the person has to be persecuted based on the law.
In Germany, Lawmakers wanted to "block" access to child porn - instead of becoming better in taking it down, in accordance with the law. Freedom activists like @Digitalcourage protested.

It does not mean they embrace abuse.

@alexl@mstdn.io @Gargron @purism Indeed!
Federation can either be a way around censorship or another way to have censorship. Not both.
