We really need more people working on tech that both has great privacy but also simplicity. Currently you always have to pick between convenience or privacy. Everybody that keeps pushing self hosting doesn’t get that not everybody has the skills or time to set that up.

I work in IT, I do QA, I write test automation code, I setup CI/CD pipelines but the moment you put me on networking stuff I’m done, gg well played. It’s a whole new skillset so if I as someone who grew up and work in a technical job has a hard time with it don’t even think its going mainstream.

Omg the 5 pixel wide character BR? What a flop that was

Good to hear they’re protecting our food quality

I’m not a technical person, can’t be bothered for that. In the end for tools like this its important non-tech people can also use it

I’ve never quit using teamspeak but I’d never see it as an alternative for the chatting functions of discord (neither private or server wide). Calling and screensharing on it is superior for sure, chatting is garbage.

I haven’t tried it yet but opening Element in browser it does have a call option

I just checked and indeed it does! Didn’t know that before, although I do think Revolt is more user friendly to non-tech people so will probably be a better choice for people to migrate to.

Teamspeak 6 released a month or so ago and has Peer2Peer screenshare, it works great!

I’m concerned but also interested

Reminder that we have a european alternative called Revolt we can always switch to!

Another alternative is Element for chatting and Teamspeak for Calls/Screenshare!

4k in 8 years, my old steam account probably has about the same amount in 4 years depending on how they count buying and selling CSGO skins

Saving this one to use when this eventually happens again

That’s what we’re for in the end

I work in QA, even devs who’ve worked for 10+ years make dumb mistakes every so often. I wouldn’t want to do QA when AI is writing the software, it’s just gonna give me even more work 🫠

I absolutely hate this, thanks

That’s amazing

It feels like that’d be a cold bath 🥶

Is it really becoming time we encrypt the messages we send ourselves? 🫠

I used ik.me before going to my own email and no issues with any site, its a valid email if they have issues with it honestly just take your business elsewhere cause if they can’t get an email validation figured out what else can’t they do well 😂

You’re telling me the US will have proper train infrastructure? That’s a great joke
