Can someone explain what the value prop of Proton Mail actually is?
So you get an email account that can only do encrypted emails to other ProtonMail users so you can only safely email the other people you know that also use it and most people you know are probably not going to be using it because they also don't see the value/network effects benefit to make it worth their time?
So, why?
It still allows plaintext emails so Proton can still read those as they come in before they get encrypted with your key?
Who the hell thought this was a good idea? Who is gullible enough to use this crap? PGP is free if you really want it

@nprofile…tsag @nprofile…h0ux as long as your communication protocol is decoupled from the network/transit so it could come over any medium without the other end needing anything more than just access to the same communication medium you can be pretty safe from censorship
if your protocol can validate providence of the data and prove nobody's lying because of math, you can trust it
as long as users are decoupled from a specific server (probably because they directly control a private key), users can be nomadic
if anyone can join the network, you're permissionless and the decentralization is not just technical but also social
at this point you probably have the basis for a protocol that properly fits the definition of "decentralized"
the overhead of this limits the use cases today, but maybe some day we'll look at all of this like a simple operation

@nprofile…y6jc fake it, and then update the post when the backend broadcasts the final version. or just don't expect to show the post you just made I guess and let the FE fetch it when the BE has completely processed it
expecting a submission to wait for expensive backend things to complete is really silly, I wish this wasn't the design

2026-03-23 22:14:50 UTC

on Pleroma if you make a post and mention a remote account of a user that does not exist it will make the submission hang for 5 seconds.
Mastodon likely has a similar problem because it's the same API implementation -- POST /api/v1/statuses has to return the status object you just posted (why?) and if there's a user you're mentioning that doesn't exist or isn't known in the local database it has to do the whole webfinger dance to look it up... which is SLOWWWWWW
you can validate this by trying to mention e.g., @[email protected] and click the Post button
This is retarded and bad design, so much processing could be involved in submitting a post. Returning the status should have been optional; posting should have been completely async

> Look, Pleroma is in no position to bake a feature, and say "take it, or leave it" and expect everyone interested to take it, or pull a Mastodon and force it on everyone through, the shear number of users. If you want to do groups properly, for which there is interest in the FEP community and also in the Mastodon community which used guppe quite a lot. I think it would best not to half-ass it and deal with the consequences later.
oh yes the FEPs, that's much better. Where cooperation == "discuss things to death, and then Mastodon ends up controlling the outcome anyway".
Before: Mastodon forces it on everyone through shear number of users
Now: Mastodon pretends to cooperate with the FEP process, and then essentially has veto power so they force it on everyone through shear number of users.
Like their Quote Posts. Do you think if Pleroma, Akkoma, and Honk showed up in the FEP process and said "this is terrible, you shouldn't do quote posts this way and you especially should not be trying to design features at the federation level that limit/restrict interactions to posts because it's an honor system and won't work anyway", that they'd have listened? Three votes from three stakeholders in the fediverse mean nothing when we don't have the userbase size of Mastodon.
At this point we either seize our own destiny or accept our fate as shit on the boots of Mastodon.

The only good that may come from the massive artificial computer hardware parts shortage that is it might kill a lot of unnecessary "smart" products as a side effect
One can argue that the only reason this junk exists is because we were in a glut

@nprofile…tsag when the PQC and the Perfect Forward Secrecy implementations go live later this year there will be near zero excuses. You can't say it has inferior cryptography anymore. The new PFS implementation is kinda superior in some ways imho

@nprofile…tsag there already are both, though
Server stuff:
- relay deployed via cmdeploy by the project
- my relay implementation done with Chef
- a completely independent implementation written in Go forked off Maddy mail server
Client stuff:
- Arcanechat
- one for Ubuntu touch
- multiple TUI implementations
- python cmsend for cli message sending

Getting to be something like 150 known independently operated DeltaChat Chatmail servers up and running, federating just fine. Many are completely private.
Moxie said this wasn't possible or something, idk what he was on about probably tripping on too much salvia or something.
Anyway, look up the publicly documented Simplex servers on places like https://simplex-directory.asriyan.me/#/servers?filterStatus=true
Currently showing only 93 servers. Filter out Tor because it's blocked in a lot of places and you're down to about 40 servers
DeltaChat ecosystem keeps growing. Others seem to be stagnating.
