I really don't get how this topic gets so misinterpreted by many..
If you login into a website while using TorBB and that website has your true
IP for you already logged in not using any encryption (VPN, Tor), one time is
enough, then for sure the owner of the website has a very easy job at
You can do all that on GNU social except private chat (I have to test
uploading music). Private chat only works on the same instance.
My understanding is that if you are using Tor, and then log into a normal
website, you are automatically identifying yourself, which defeats the
purpose of using Tor. If you want to log into a site while using Tor, you
need to find their .onion address and login there (other forum members
I looked at the jonkman site, it's described as a microblogging service.
In fact I saw an anti-google group, looked tempting to join but I think the
last message is 3 months old; I'll peek at it again sometime.
>Also, there is an API with desktop and mobile clients, which is of course
JS-free
I'd like to check that out.
Thanks for the link. It looks like if I wanna use D, I have to deal with js.
LOL about that ps and pic. :)Comment
warrior, aye? hehheheh you. :D Yea maybe I reacted over the top, but I want
you to know I appreciate your honesty.
When I had winblows, I saw the hosts file, but haven't seen that anyplace
else.
I may have to go back to IceCat because their fonts are better for me. A few
days ago I
>In another thread I saw you say HexChat is more secure than Pidgin, and less
bloated
Well, if we are talking about IRC alone, sure, hexchat is a way less bloated
option and also a more secure one. If Pidgin just make sure it is the latest
version.
thanks for explaining. Now I just have to pick one to try.
I had Ublock Origin on other browsers, but I'm not sure how to use it- but I
did play with it a little though. If I'm using Tor, I know they don't
recommend extra add-ons, so maybe I should go back to IceCat? but .onion is a
Tor thing, right? I'll go read some stuff at Tor's site.
In
Misty, use ublock origin in advanced mode to selectively block scripts and
hosts, or block hosts via /etc/hosts.
But honestly, your reaction seems exaggerated, to say the least, again you
worry too much. Btw you can use several pods in onionland, .onion address,
so, if you in a warrior mood
On GNU social, by default you do not need javascript. For the Twitter-like
"Qvitter" interface, it needs to be disabled manually. Some sites will detect
automatically if you have javascript disabled, and show you the JS-free site.
Also, there is an API with desktop and mobile clients, which
I'm so sorry I had to leave. Here's the reasons: #1, they use javascript, I
always have to temporarily allow it. I did post a message about that and the
exact wording. Then I saw something called newrelic, that lurks there, I
could block that and usually the site would run ok, they have some
>I just quit diaspora, so I'll have to find a new place. D was a wonderful
place, till I accidentally found sneaky sites lurking there
whaat? why? w00t? Elaborate please.
I just quit diaspora, so I'll have to find a new place.
Amazon corp? how horrible! the members of that forum need to know. I didn't
know how evil amazon is till recently.

I just joined Diaspora on diasp.org as Mappack, feel free to add me.
Which pods do you use?
I'm in Diaspora* too:
flam3boy at joindiaspora dot com
diaspora ftw :)
alimiracle, want me to mention you on GNU social? I think a lot of my
followers would mutually follow you.
I'm on Diaspora too, I just haven't been feeling very social lately.
I used to use the Joindiaspora pod until I found out it was a subsidiary of
the Amazon corporation, but if you find that one you should be able to rabbit
trail your way to the pod I actually use now.
Is Diaspora more active than GNUsocial? If so, I'll register to that as well.
its seme I will remove my gnu social
i'm Feel I'm alone there
BTW, I'm in Diaspora
I'm bitcoin on loadaverage dot org
I don't believe either is "official" per se. I would join the one with more
members.
yw, misty!
p.S: I have no tech skills, I only read a lot on the subjects I am interested
in. This forum was a blessing when I started. It still is. As I already told
you in another thread, you just need to persist, read, read, read, tinker,
read, read, tinker, repeat * 10. :)
if there are 2, I wonder which one is the official one. Maybe I saw one of
them awhile ago; it didn't seem very active.
you know I've been consistent on my rants about goo. :)
Wow I am so glad to see friends from D. You've been so helpful to me, thank
you so much. I wish I had your tech skills. Thanks for all you share. :D
Aha!! So you are the misty that complains all the time about google. I used
to do that too, now I just changed subject, I now constantly complain about
javascript. I wonder if the next one will be the bad weather or the low
pensions! x_X
I am "gargamello" on dias-por-a, add me, I lv cats
I'm using Diaspora, and now thanks to you, I'm curious to see GNU social :)
I use GNU social. I am taknamay at quitter dot se. I also use Diaspora* very
occasionally, but I prefer GNU social because it has non-web clients.
Something I noticed about kmag, I had it running and tried to open Synaptic,
but it wouldn't load till I restarted and ran it without kmag running.
Considering my computer's low disk space and RAM, that's why.
I'd like to tweak it like arielenter says, but I need more guidance on it
first.
It's great to see another person from Diaspora, it's a wonderful place. I
learned a lot about the FSF from there. :D
I like diaspora more for the variety of content, I rarely go on gnusocial
too, mine is gargamel...@quitter.se
hi
I try gnu social
It looks beautiful
and easy to use
Do you use it??
this my name you can add me

If it is GNU, it should rather follow GNU coding standards:

I really hate to split hairs, but maybe it's a good idea to check the
spelling of the English translation first. ;-D It could, for example, rather
look like:

and has been released as free software (i.e. it respects
A desktop client for GNU Social has been released for GNU/Linux:

When might we see this become available in the Trisquel repos?
I suspect many are unaware, but there has been a bit of a wave of users in
the GNU social network lately. There were two big waves of users: anime
people and then conservatives. Some of the new users are learning about free
software and interested in the idea which is great. I just wanted to
I just realized the network status site requires Javascript which some may
not wish to enable. If you are looking for an instance yourself, this link
has a ton:
