@DC7IA also left/right is a quite simple scala… just saying…

@mondstern empfohlen: http://computefreely.org/ https://librehunt.org/

@mondstern vergiss nicht #GNOME gnome grau 😉

@DC7IA 🇪🇺 (as you do 😉)

@thomas yep

@DashEquals well… "required for chat"?

@jeybe @thomas ehm… yes, you should? 😜

@DashEquals well… whether sth. is a dark pattern depends on whether you judge it's intend as "bad".

Otherwise it can be a good thing to nudge a user into the "right direction", i.e. mostly into a secure direction.
E.g. blocking access to sites with broken TLS certs or so.

@DashEquals to be fair: they some cryptographical arguments for that, i.e. they then have another device key for your account (generated locally) and use it to… dunno… sign some more stuff or so(?)
also for account recovery and such features. (and uhm… required for chat)

(but it also annoys me)

@DashEquals well… only for those very very bad vulnerabilities. AFAIK two were provided since support end.

It's still totally insecure. And should not be used.

@thomas it works with GNOME Tweaks when selecting the dark Adwaita theme here. (I guess this is dark GTK mode)

It is unrelated to the Firefox dark theme.

BTW, if you still struggle or want an easy in-browser toggle, I've got you covered with an add-on anyway 😃 😊…

@Bluedepth 😆 🏡

@Bluedepth you are a gnome??

@static @DashEquals boah, f** off…

@Dee @DashEquals also i should say: don't use gmail 😉

@Dee @DashEquals BTW, it's also worse in #gmail case, because dots don't matter for their mail addresses. https://jameshfisher.com/2018/04/07/the-dots-do-matter-how-to-scam-a-gmail-user/

@sid @frommMoritz A:???

B: Na eben, wenn du Yalp Store nutzt, mnusst du keine Google Play Services installiert haben.

@static @DashEquals would be curious to know _which_ fallacy you mean. (srsly, I dunno…)

@DashEquals and 2. what those people then *feel* is something totally different that you cannot judge from any counting. And you just cannot fake being "a … person with …" .

Also BTW: You can likely also easily fake the social media profile of a wheelchair user…

@DashEquals obviously, all of these things are different and I also have to mind my privilege now so…

My main point was: You can superficially "fake" a social media profile and possibly even measure nazi interactions or whatever…

But I said two things:
1. technically, you need to get popular etc./be exposed to the same communities/people/tweets/… . So have fun maintaining that account for 5 years to get a realistic impression…
