A lot of the solutions are based on standards that already include E2E. The French and German platforms for example are just rebranded Matrix.
the platforms are not intended for civilian communication. The video is a bit misleading when it talks about WhatsApp alternatives. A more accurate description would be "Slack alternative": A communications platform for government workers to message each other, so that potentially sensitive data isn't stored on 3rd party servers.

The right man in the wrong place can make all the difference in the world.

You might want to keep an eye on Plasma Bigscreen, KDEs UI for TVs. Combine it with Waydoid and you get a system that allows you to sideload anything you want.

Nice to see (some of) my taxes going to improving the Fediverse.

The Sovereign Tech Agency (previously Sovereign Tech Fund) is an organisation set up by the German government to fund critical open source projects. Mastodon receiving funds therefore means that the German government considers the Fediverse critical infrastructure.

Keep in mind that this will only work with apps that support the appropriate xdg-portal (eg flatpaks) other apps might not show up there, despite running in the background.

Nice to see that my translations made it into the latest update. One thing I noticed while translating: I couldn't properly translate time related strings into German without running into grammar issues. The correct translation for "5 min ago" would be "vor 5 Min". The number moves from the beginning into the center of the string, which isn't possible in your current setup.

Now for some more general feedback: I have been thinking about how to structure the UI of the app. Currently you're just throwing every menu option into the pulley menu. That means this one menu contains both navigation items and actions for the current view which I generally consider suboptimal UX. I'm sure this is just temporary while you are working on features and you have ideas how to restructure the central navigation. But I want to give one option of how you could possibly restructure the UI to clean up the UX nonetheless. I'm aware that this is a big change to the app, so see it as merely an impulse.

SFOS has generally speaking two forms of main navigation menu: The menu page, which is what quickddit for example uses, and tabs. I have chosen the latter option for this concept:

The pulley would contain the options to change the feed between subscription, local and all, as well as the already existing options to refresh. But all options should relate to the feed.

The search tab could double as the list of your subscribed to communities:

As soon as you tap on the search field the list would disappear and make way for the search results.

Again just a couple of ideas of how to guide the user a bit more.

Except the provision in question was copy pasted from an old law where it existed for decades without any change.

I find the tendency on Lemmy to see a conspiracy in every law concerning.

Criticise the law for what it does (there is enough here for it) and be wary of potential abuse. But sometimes warm water is just warm water.

Two reasons: Someone else already owns the trademark for Asiavision and Eurovision is an established brand that they are not willing to give up on for the spin off

The government is obliged to grant your request to leave the country unless there actually is a war.
There is no penalty if you leave the country without government approval.

Some Matrix clients such as comment also support screen sharing (for a more discord like experience). But I haven't used it myself, so I can't speak to its quality or reliability: https://commet.chat/

Some mobile clients such as Thunder support it. But if you don't use a client that supports the feature, then you're generally expected to put the transcript into the post body.

While the law requires men to request the permit, the [army] spokesperson clarified, it also obliges the military career center to issue it, if "no specific military service is expected during the period in question.”
"Since military service under current law is based exclusively on voluntary participation, such permissions must generally be granted,” the official added. (...)
When asked, the ministry spokesperson pointed out that "the regulation was already in place during the Cold War and had no practical relevance; in particular, there are no penalties for violating it.”
