Share a story, ask a question, or start a conversation about (almost) anything you desire. Maybe you'll make some friends in the process.


RULES

  1. Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling.
  2. Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including all information that can initiate conversations when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible.
  3. Avoid controversial topics (e.g. politics or societal debates).
  4. Stay calm: Don’t post angry or to vent or complain. We are a place where everyone can forget about their everyday or not so everyday worries for a moment. Venting, complaining, or posting from a place of anger or resentment doesn't fit the atmosphere we try to foster at all. Feel free to post those on !goodoffmychest@lemmy.world
  5. Keep it clean and SFW
  6. No solicitation such as ads, promotional content, spam, surveys etc.
  7. No support questions. See !techsupport@lemmy.world

I thought we had a "no support question" in the rules, but seems like not. I'm probably going to add one tomorrow, except if people comment here that they prefer not to.

Well, if it’s truly end-to-end encrypted, then your client device needs to do the encryption/decryption with its own CPU. It seems the application checks for minimum specs for that requirement and they are either too low, or your specs can’t be determined.

IMO that’s kind of a dumb requirement because it would still work, it would just perform really slowly.

I've used Ente on my phone (S23), and it's definitely demanding. I could see why they would prefer to avoid running this things in browsers, and ask for native apps performance.

So better not to download the app ??πŸ€”πŸ€”πŸ€”

[–] Blaze@piefed.zip 1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

No: better to download the app, as the performance will be better. That's basically what the message is saying.

The performance was fantastic even two days ago. And all of a sudden all of my browsers grew powerless to encrypt my photos ??

A novel marketing strategy or what ???

[–] Blaze@piefed.zip 3 points 2 weeks ago

Reach out to Ente, at this point.

Try setting it to desktop site in your browser and see if it gives you the same shit. It could be legit, but a lot of web apps like to pull shit like this to force mobile users onto their mobile app

[–] MastKalandar@feddit.online 2 points 2 weeks ago

I'm of the same opinion. Because l do all my work on my mobile phone, they want to make my phone their permanent client.

your photos are encrypted on your device for obvious privacy reasons. that text says that your phone is not powerful enough to encrypt them.
