@unfa was this what you were looking for? https://sneak.berlin/20200220/discord-is-not-an-acceptable-choice-for-free-software-projects/

@unfa I read their ToS before, it was the usual BS and more.
1st they define what words mean, that they are bound by this and that countries laws; then some branding; no warranty etc; then comes what they allow you to do; then some user data logged and sometimes recorded but only in order to improve the product (promise!); then list of partners this data is shared with (not counting companies owned by them or the government); and finally something on how ToS still valid even one term is void

@unfa for things like these, I usually go to RMS' site first, usually there is a good collection of reasons on why not to use a specific service.
For discord, here is a link https://stallman.org/discord.html

New Carla release!
https://kx.studio/News/?action=view&url=carla-22-rc1-is-here

It is a release candidate, sure, but now tagged and will receive bug-fixes only. Try it out and let me know how it works for you.
I always include pre-built binaries for Linux, macOS and Windows.

@unfa haha that would be cool. some of the changes were made because of you ;)

@unfa carla is coming with some nice surprises, but I got stuck with the macos builds :( later on then...

@zrythm being P2P is a big problem, at least for me. You cannot focus on privacy while going P2P. afaik peertube does not have the means to pay artists that want to make a living out of it, so having it never "deplatform" users does not mean much until that happens.

@zrythm that looks confusing but fun indeed! my view is much simpler in comparison.

Proud moment when Benn and Gear talks about your product https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CFWWy3d5tww 😊

@unfa @sexybiggetje@mastodon.social I also cannot recommend Brave, I actually recommend *not* to use Brave.
some info on what @sexybiggetje@mastodon.social mentioned https://github.com/brave/brave-core/commit/e8fdde70a3ac2c25e6ccc567bc93c6d4059c2d72

@unfa I heavily disagree. IRC is working quite fine for ardour

@unfa yes, as using a midi sequencer without being able to record notes is quite the killer

@unfa I setup a dedicated mailbox.org account to use for kx.studio related things. I was already using them for my falktx@falktx.com mail, so this was easy to setup.

mostly you just need to put a custom DNS TXT entry so that they (mailbox) can verify you own the domain, then you can have your mailbox.org act as unfa.xyz.
I think you can have up to 5 accounts like this

of course, other email services work too. except google/gmail, they require business account for that

helio-fm (a brand-new MIDI sequencer) just got MIDI recording!

@unfa you might like this :)

It could not get more obvious than this... shitty mobile applications that keep reading the clipboard every couple of seconds or keystrokes.
Trying to grab some extra user data behind the scenes...?

@nurinoas chat is TELEports (telegram ubports). It works but very WIP, some clear issues can be seen. bottom text is not visible when opening keyboard. so I have to type while not seeing what I am typing haha.

oh and my nextcloud is running on a hetzner server, no complains at all about them.
even uses disks, not ssds, so it could be made faster.
it just has lots of ram so it caches a lot of stuff.

@nurinoas resposive the device is most of the time, I had to type a few commands on the terminal to get ssh working. after some minutes I was getting used to it. still locks up sometimes for a few seconds though, software issue for sure...
I also only tried ubuntu touch, so not much experience yet.
pinephone is releasing postmarketos edition next, so in some weeks I can try those builds.

@unfa Isn't that being replaced by "Google Meets"? or was it "Google Hangout Meets"... their naming is so confusing.

I have a PinePhone now! 🚀
A couple of things don't work yet (camera and gps), but I might just be able to help out perhaps.
SSH'ing into your phone to run regular linux stuff is just so awesome. Damn it took long to get here..

A few pics here if you want to see it. 😃
