Do we have any information if there will be a version without google drm? Would love to use it on my devices that don't have google play installed.
@hardypart I have no inside info obviously but why would he join? He is making bank with photopea, why support potential competition?
@TheYang Exactly! Came here to say this. Everybody actively using chromium based browsers is a part of the problem.
It's different. From a software standpoint much more mature since it's older and doesn't have to manage the technical depth that comes with the fediverse, since it's not a part of that.
The culture is also different. Not sure how to describe it but if I had to I would also call it "more mature". Deeper conversations and the different structure of the sites makes it different. There are also no moderators or freely created "magazines" (for now).
Have a look at it and feel free to message me if you are interested in creating an account.
It's not wired at all. I am active on both and the culture on both sites is completely different, so I totally understand when people decide that one culture fits them better.
The RIF dev is making an app for tildes.net
@BigBlackCockroach Have you heard of https://nostr.com/ ?
Should be of interest to you.
It's censorship resistant by design and you can get 100% censorship resistance by running your own relay (server which transfers the data between the clients).
It's a protocol, so all kinds of different applications can be implemented with it. Something like mastodon already exists.
