  • Which email providers have built-in encryption at rest ?

  • What are the actual privacy implications of using a fitness tracker with mostly pseudonymous information?

  • How much does it bother you that OpenAI is trained on your data? What can we do about it?

    Jump

  • The biggest problem to me is what I just saw you post in another reply, that these models built upon our knowledge exist almost solely within proprietary ecosystems.

    and maybe even our Mastodon or Lemmy posts!

    The Washington Post published a great piece which allows you to search which websites were included in the "C4" dataset published in 2019. I searched for my personal blog jonaharagon.com and sure enough it was included, and the C4 dataset is practically minuscule compared to what is being compiled for larger models like ChatGPT. If my tiny website was included, Mastodon and Lemmy posts (which are actually very visible and SEO optimized tbh) are 100% being scraped as well, there's no maybe about it.

  • If the current mods of r/atheism on Reddit want to create a new community here on lemmy.one, they can message me as described here: https://lemmy.one/post/41

    If people are just looking for an existing atheism community here on the Lemmy network, there are atheism communities already on other servers, such as !atheism@lemmy.ml.

  • It's fine to register here, I mostly just don't want to create a misunderstanding that you have to register on lemmy.one to join local communities here, which can be joined from any instance. And I'm telling Subreddit moderators to link people to join-lemmy.org instead of lemmy.one in announcement posts in the spirit of decentralization.

  • So, what do you think about Lemmy/kbin so far?

    Jump

  • Lots of people here with the opposite opinion of me, which is that I like the website and not the mobile apps, but overall yeah I'm pretty convinced this format is probably the best poised alternative to replace Reddit for a lot of people. Maybe not everybody, but I am willing to "settle" for quality over quantity ;)

  • Reddit now says it will allow free API access for developers of accessibility apps

    Jump

  • I would describe Apollo as an accessibility app in the sense that the regular Reddit app is unusable.

  • PSA: How to link users & communities so it doesn't break for other instances

    Jump

  • The only problem is that if your instance doesn't know about that community yet, it'll just 404, you still have to search for it first because visiting the link doesn't make your instance fetch the community yet.

    This should still be the default behavior when it autofills a community link though, I hope they make this change 👍

  • lemmy.ml is overloaded, use other instances instead

    Jump

  • How/which URL should we link to then?

    My (somewhat) hot take is that large migrating subreddits should probably host their own communities, which is what we did when we told people on r/PrivacyGuides to move to Lemmy. Or at the very least, actually coordinate with instance admins beforehand about all of this, clearly lemmy.ml isn't the ideal choice for this situation.

  • Developer of RedReader (a reddit app with 100k downloads on play store) is considering porting it to Lemmy or Mastodon

    Jump

  • My guess is that Reddit is alluding to the stupid suggestion of "just make your app more efficient with requests bro" (paraphrasing) that I saw an admin make. Reddit's already said they're not open to negotiations.

  • Let's Encrypt privacy concerns for private networks

    Jump

  • I don't see why you couldn't just get a wildcard certificate that doesn't include any hostnames, if you handle your traffic on a single Caddy reverse proxy anyways.

  • Can I transfer my account to a different instance?

    Jump

  • "The content" on all Lemmy instances is the same. There is no account migration, but you can just sign up on lemmy.ml. If you already had an account there and you want it back... I don't know if it's possible for an admin there to restore it, you might have to get in touch with them.

  • Yep, for things you host absolutely. However, P2P applications (e.g. torrent clients) are still going to be negatively affected by this.

  • Find and Share Communities Thread!

    Jump

  • I'm trying to understand this community and posts there like "how to disprove the lies about the DPRK?" To me, the most telling thing about these pro-North Korea communities is that there are no North Koreans within them 🙃

  • Why Gen Z are so motivated by pay

    Jump

  • “At Gen Z’s age, older people worked 40 hours a week, and made enough money to buy a house and have barbecues on the weekend,” says Corey Seemiller, an educator, researcher and TEDx speaker on Gen Z. “Gen Z works 50 hours a week at their jobs, and another 20 hours a week side hustling, yet still make barely enough to cover rent.”

    Not sure how they wrote a whole article that basically just says this same idea they quoted at the beginning with a lot more words. Gen Z's money troubles are very easy to comprehend lol

  • We're giving Lemmy a try: Welcome to !privacyguides@lemmy.one

    Jump

  • It's not a configurable option. Maybe with a custom interface change, but I'm not convinced that making changes to Lemmy.one that remote users don't experience is the best move.

  • What browser / extensions do you make use of?

    Jump

  • Just my password manager and uBlock Origin :)
