Amazing

sounds nice, I’ll believe it when I see it

Yes but also we can stop turning food into fuel or into less efficient luxuries like meat etc

Not let the government have 100% viewability of every financial transaction you ever made

That’s explicitly not the case with gnu taler though.

Edit: I checked their website https://taler.net/en/features.html and I don’t even know if sending person to person is possible. So you might have a point. I would never advocate to get rid of cash though, cash is good. Maybe in a distant future once we really have a digital equivalent working reliably.

How does you comment relate to my post?

They don’t even want to bust them. They just want to intercept

Gnu taler doesn’t enable tax evasion if I am not mistaken. Vendors income is public I think.

Oh it’s definitely dying.

Unfortunately the feddit.de server has been broken for quite a while and we have trouble contacting the admin.

In contrast, most other social media platforms allow you to limit your feed visibility to just friends or followers.

Yes but they will sell all of it plus where your mouse pointer was and how long you viewed what topic happily.

Mastodon I think has a built in feature to delete posts after x days. But I wouldn’t use it since people who want to stalk or surveil you will find the hdd space to save your posts within these days but friends and people interested in your posts will not find it after 6 months. So I don’t think that’s a solution to your problem.

What could be of interest to you is the mastodon feature to only post to followers. That means that you will also have to approve followers as well, since it’s pointless to post to a limited amount of people if that’s potentially everyone.

You would still have to trust their server administrators somewhat but since most servers aren’t run with profit in mind you won’t find that many sell the user data.

Imagine using telegram… It’s worse than whatsapp

GPS coordinates in metadata isn’t common

I wish they went with XMPP. Still cool though.

yup

It’s not like that here. Most accept cash and I think gyms are still “normal”

That’s cool but also a bit dystopian in a way.

They’re not a government institution providing necessary services, so I think it’s legal pretty much everywhere. Same with places accepting payment by card only.

Omg finally I can see comments again!

yup and it’s great! Unfortunately there are not good iphone apps that work with omemo encryption.

It’s really lightweight and that’s such a great feeling.

Ah yes US-american prudes
