WhatsApp has a zero day code execution exploit and that is probably the reason for using WhatsApp, I got a similarly odd text a couple days ago

He was able to buy a laptop after 5 days of selling stuff on the internet… How was he using the internet?
If you have a pixel you can turn on call screening for unknown numbers. Ive been using it for a couple years now on my pixel and my phone hardly ever rings now, its fantastic
Phone > settings > call screen > automatically screen calls + maximum protection.
Woah any type looks awesome
The primary reason I want federation is, if I self host it and let other people join then I ultimately control their data and they are locked in, so it could eventually turn into the same centralized authoritarian bs that notion / todoist has and probably most other proprietary stuff.
Activity pub is the only current answer to centralization I’ve seen so far
I could host but I also want people to be able to use it if they don’t want to, I feel like requiring people to host mastadon or Lemmy would really raise the bar to entry
I run nextcloud in a docker container and its super unstable, and I haven’t found a good way of using it on mobile
I do support those who host stuff but I’d much rather donate to a community run solution like Lemmy.world than do it myself, I know there are people who enjoy doing it and are much better at managing infra than I am.
Edit: also I think Lemmy / mastadon having servers that anyone can join has really lowered the bar to entry and helped drive engagement.
I do currently host the backend
I was trying to find something with sync too, ended up working on building my own, federation doesn’t work yet but tell me what you think. https://github.com/odama626/tasks
