LibreWolf is great btw, if you're to lazy to manually harden Firefox. It also comes with uBlock Origin pre-installed. Also check out their community: !librewolf@lemmy.ml

But thankfully Manifest V3 is only relevant to Chromium browsers, and there are other options. The proposed web environment integrity API would be much worse, as they could simply blacklist any browsers they don't like, and deny them access to the most popular websites.

Time to switch to ~~uBlock Lite or~~ another ~~ad blocker~~ browser. Firefox fully supports ad blockers like uBlock Origin. LibreWolf removes all the Mozilla nonsense like Pocket, their new advertising crap, sponsored sites, etc. and comes with uBO preinstalled. There's also an official Lemmy community for it: !librewolf@lemmy.ml

Cellebrite is developed in Israel, a country that legally shouldn't even exist, and is known for genocide, crime, espionage, manipulation and propaganda, more war crimes, illegal settlements, using their intelligence agency to assassinate political opponents abroad, etc.

The so-called "only democracy in the middle east"

Although lockdown mode is a good step and helps defend against biometric warrents, it does not wipe the encryption keys from RAM. This can only be achieved by using a secondary (non-default) user profile on GrapheneOS, and triggering the End session feature. This fully removes the cryptographic secrets from memory, and requires the PIN or password to unlock, which is enforced through the StrongBox and Weaver API of the Titan M2 secure element in Pixel devices.

You can use GrapheneOS, a security-focused version of Android which includes auto-reboot, timers that automatically turn off Wi-Fi and Bluetooth after you don't use them for a certain period of time, a duress PIN/Password that wipes all the data from your device after it's entered, as well as many other incredibly useful features.

It's fully hardened from the ground up, including the Linux kernel, C library, memory allocator, SELinux policies, default firewall rules, and other vital system components.

Calyx just copied the code from GrapheneOS, and I believe they still use the old GrapheneOS default of 72 hours

It's even worse nowadays, because we have good alternatives, unlike 20 years ago.

Where's Plume? It's better than WriteFrreely IMO

Violentmonkey > Tampermonkey, it's fully open source

They probably pay lots of money for it

 

hydroxide-push is a fork of hydroxide for receiving Proton Mail push notifications for via UnifiedPush created by @oranki@lemmy.world
Thanks a lot for creating this awesome project!

This is going to be very useful, until Proton finally implements native UP support in their Android apps. (They currently only support Google's proprietary FCM). Make sure to upvote this feature request: https://protonmail.uservoice.com/forums/284483-proton-mail/suggestions/47423924-support-unifiedpush-for-android-notifications

Consider contributing to the project and make sure to report any bugs that you find.

 

UnifiedPush is receiving a grant from NLnet (Fediverse profile):

This is now official, UnifiedPush is receiving a grant from @nlnet ! Thanks a lot for their support. Expect some improvements on the protocol and new applications supporting #UnifiedPush in some time !

Make sure to follow @nlnet@nlnet.nl, @unifiedpush@fosstodon.org and the #UnifiedPush hashtag on Mastodon (or your preferred ActivityPub-based microblog platform)

 

Hey guys,
I created this community to promote and talk about the UnifiedPush project. It aims to create a free and open source alternative to Google's proprietary Firebase Cloud Messaging (FCM). Quite a few apps have already adopted the UP protocol, but there are still many FOSS apps lacking support for it. I will post GitHub issue threads where UP integration in FOSS apps is being discussed. I will also post about new apps that gained UnifiedPush support, and other useful tools that help with using UP. If you want to stay up-to-date about ongoing developments in the Android FOSS ecosystem in regards to push notifications, consider subscribing to !unifiedpush@lemmy.dbzer0.com

I also recommend following the official Mastodon account, joining the Matrix room and donating to support development!

This service is still in Alpha release but is already deployable and usable, and federates with other Fediverse servers.

However, there is no "main" instance you go to join. The intention really is that you host your own instance for yourself and a few friends and family. To this end, it is designed to be very lightweight and will happily run on a Raspberry Pi or even a $5/pm VPS.

This is taking a very different approach from say Mastodon which has one main instance everyone could join, but then it sits with the issue that everyone joins there, and it becomes a bit "centralised". GoToSocial has been designed as lightweight for self-hosting, and also has a Docker image installation, so it makes it really easy for (and encourages) most people to host their own instance.

It seems to also be focussed very much around privacy (defaults to unlisted posts) and permission controls (for example, you have an option to post to mutual-only where both people follow each other). Also, by hosting your own service you set the rules, and you are also your own admin. You can choose to turn off likes, replies, boosts, etc as well. Being your own admin also means you can easily adjust the post length as well.

It does conform to the Mastodon API so apparently some Mastodon clients will also work fine with it.

I couldn't find any announcement on the Proton VPN blog or Mastodon?
