Yes, that's part of the joke. The obituary he was looking for was something that would be frontpage news, implying it's an important political person.

FYI, droid-ify is an F-droid app
signal runs on amazon servers. Anything that can't self host and isn't federate isn't worth it. Matrix (and element) fill this requirement. But IMHO, the best is XMPP where you can self-host or use federated servers located in other countries.
Why would you prefer XMPP? Last time I checked most features (like E2EE) weren't part of the base protocol.
Delta chat is basically email.
It supports mail, but also has an encrypted normal chat backend AFAIK
Why? Because it's torrents?
Yes, it's not really a good alternative since it's illegal. I'm not judging but it's not a good option for most people.
Aurora is just a front-end for google playstore. You should add f-droid
Droid-ify is F-droid
Yes, if I create my own version I will add something to differentiate.
Why should Element be removed?
Nice, if you have any questions about Lemmy feel free to ask
Gnome's browser uses it afaik
I'm on mobile too, but I've added some changes to the post description for now
Lemmy proxies access to embedded images
...
But do the other frontends also do this?
EDIT:
I checked and the embedded image points to an uploaded image, however it's hosted on another known instance (https://lemmings.world/pictrs/image/1936a27f-ff82-4ec9-9da4-2942c21ad54a.png
). This means that they can't get people's IP's using it unless they control the instance. The other links don't include any identifiers either.
Droid-ify is an alternative frontend for f-droid
And IMO it's better
What was the response?
Good try, but already outdated
