Unfortunately, I accidentally deleted the video clips for my next video so there will be no new video on my LBRY channel this week. πŸ˜”

Many Linux distributions and even the Tor Project uses Firefox. It's fast, simple and follows industry standards. Make it even more awesome by watching this video. 😎

An Open Letter To Open-Source Devs & Software Companies

We are currently seeing interest in and rise both commercially and from a user's standpoint. However, this has resulted in some negative consequences where large corporations are attempting to control the infrastructure that holds FOSS projects together. (Eg: itsfoss.com/microsoft-npm-acqu ) As a community that has strongly supported your work, we request that you consider the future of our community when making vital decisions.

How often have you heard someone say that they can't leave Google because it will impact their productivity? With these tips and hidden features in DuckDuckGo, you can show them that protecting your privacy is just as productive. Leave a comment & subscribe.

Just finished editing my next video for my new LBRY channel. Follow me to keep up with all my latest content.

I've created a channel on LBRY to help promote the platform. Join me there if you want to support FOSS and privacy.

COVID-19 is causing many of us to stay at home and practice 'social distancing'. Use Jitsi Meet to keep in touch with friends and family as well as to hold company/team meetings and webinars. Check it out here: meet.jit.si.

@JoshStrobl Are you guys gonna collaborate with Ikey and his new company, Lispy Snake?

Then, we also have the problem of unencrypted backups on Android and server-client encrypted backups on iOS (over which we have little control) which are 'promoted'. Although, local backups are available, this is not made clearly evident and the process is not very 'streamlined' (to say the least). These issues seem to undermine our privacy despite the strength of the Signal Protocol itself. Don't you think it's time to change? (thinkprivacy.io/choosing-the-r)

'Messages that Stay with You'. Are WhatsApp messages really encrypted? True. WhatsApp does use one of the best end-to-end encryption protocols (Signal protocol). However, due to the way WhatsApp works, your messages may not be as private as you think. Firstly, we have the problem of metadata. WhatsApp can seemingly identify the types of files you send, how long you chat with someone and who you chat with.

@torproject It would be nice if you provided an AppImage for Linux downloads. It makes things much easier and cleaner. Please consider it.

@Tutanota @protonvpn @protonmail The Librem 5 is a new platform by @purism that aims to provide their users with a surveillance-free smartphone. While it still has a long way to go, many would agree that it has potential. As privacy and security oriented services, it would be invaluable for your users and the entire and community if you officially supported it. We await your response. πŸ˜€

What is your most favourite universal packaging format?

@Tutanota My system tray icon disappeared after updating to v3.67.4. I am on Linux Mint 19.3.

AppCentre for Everyone is off to a great start. With 25 days still left for the deadline, it has already more than covered its intended campaign goal. This just highlights the existing need in Linux. Consumers need high quality software and developers need a method to effectively monetize their work. A round of applause to the @elementary team. Well done! πŸ‘ πŸ‘

We all know that is not always the prettiest solution to our daily needs. What if we could change that? What if we could motivate the developers to put more time and energy into building better, sleeker and more functional software that adheres to everything we love about FOSS? That is exactly what the Elementary OS team plan on doing. Support their cause and become a backer: indiegogo.com/projects/appcent. Please share this with others.
