Hello! I have not been in action for a good while, and feel a lot of guilt for this.
The Lemmy community is quite dead, as I have ignored this place, and I feel even more guilt for it. I am sorry.
No excuses, I just am not able to find good topics to write about. And I do NOT want to write tabloid journalism tier fodder. One could call me lazy too, but I have been on a constant lookout and I am still unsure.
There had been a lot of chaos in the privacy community until recently and the dust has settled, so addressing that has been important. I am looking into writing some stuff again.
Just to give a heads up, I am indeed active and not gone anywhere, but want to keep this place open for anyone seeking help, and want to keep it a great resourceful decluttered space for privacy, security and freedom, the ideals for this community.
I am grateful to every single one of you ~2K people, who have considered this place to be of value, and want it to grow even further.
Please give me a little boost, I feel a little dead (not tired) and want to seriously write on something that could help flourish true privacy. Any topic suggestions, any case studies…
I do not provide help for iPhones as they cannot be controlled at all. The only protections you get are what Apple decides for you, and their decisions are quite the antithesis of privacy, let alone anonymity.
I do not want to rant about Apple devices, which I am sure you know well, since you are surrounded by them, but the 3 key factors would be no sideloading of apps, no third party app stores, and only one browser engine with no PWA (web apps) functionality. These make it nearly impossible to help user gain control over privacy, security and anonymity.
So true. :( RIP my dreams. Thanks for that though :)
