I want to start a thing, where Friday the 13th is a good-luck day (because as my high school geometry teacher used to say, all Fridays are Good Friday ) ... and instead, it's actually Monday the 13th that's the bad-luck day.

Among other things, it's an opportunity for a whole new horror-film franchise.

Tell your friends. Monday the 13th. It's gonna be a thing.

So, mark your calendars.

Friday, December 13th ... Good day.

Monday, January 13th ... Bad day.

Monday the 13th. It's gonna be a thing.

There's a very sophisticated phishing attempt going on for Tutanota users (see screenshots). Please make sure to always use the correct domain when you login to your secure mailbox: tutanota.com/ Here are some tips on how to prevent phishing: tutanota.com/blog/posts/how-to

The /e/-S7 is not yet my daily driver: waiting for some cases. also still searching for - and installing - apps.

Phone itself is good: great quality and still fast so far. The app store of /e/ is a bit of a hit and miss: have not yet put f-droid or other store on there. So far so good, beside an error with the maps app.

I'll post regular updates on the e-forum once I use it regularly

@bolvary
Thank! You too have fun exploring the /e/ phone & os. And enjoy Manjaro 🙂

My first evening checking I found that there are a lot of proprietary apps in the /e/ store. Did you notice this too?

First little steps are being made into the world: laptop is running in dual boot and setting up my S7 with /e/ os. Both not my daily drivers yet, but I hope so to be soon

Got my @e_mydata phone with /e/ is in the mail today! Unpack to see it, booted it up real quick, but had to put it aside as I was at work. Looks very nice for a refurbished phone! Going to set up up tonight 😊

Just watched #TheGreatHack on #Netflix. What I appreciated about this #documentary on #Facebook and the whole #CambridgeAnalytica scandal, is that it's one of the few #privacy #documentaries to get that protecting personal data isn't just about not seeing personalized ads for stuff you're more likely to want. It's about protecting ourselves from mass psychological manipulation and behavior modification techniques. These are techniques that actually work *best* when people believe they don't.

'Facebook-boete verlaagd omdat waakhond juridische strijd niet aandurfde' nu.nl/tech/5969317/facebook-bo
This news gives my chills: FB is so big, that the government doesn't want to charge on the fine. Due the fear of a legal battle...
I'm still deciding on scrapping my accounts on FB, Google & Insta: loads of people I know are still on there (with no chance of convincing them to leave). An extra reason to leave..

I just posted a detailed review of my new /e/Phone. community.e.foundation/t/i-bou

I was a supporter from the start, back when it was called eelo, when it was just a guy named @gael, a blog post, and a sketchy-looking Kickstarter.

18 months later, they've built a solid, privacy-focused, Google-less Android running on 80+ phones, a consumer-friendly environment, a bucketful of default apps, their own App Store, a Personal Cloud, and now they're selling phones.

The /e/ refurbished phones (e.foundation/e-pre-installed-s) have been launched: but until now I haven't seen any reviews yet. Still to early? As I'm interested in this system but still a bit hesitant to take the plunge... 😲

@gael : are you guys at eFoundation going to put up some reviews on the site?

@purism het guys, great initiative! Looking into getting on a paid plan: however, I can't see any calender support? Any plans / roadmap for this? As this is an essential part of a service to me (and I guess a lot of others).
Kind regards, Rik
