Alas Poor Erinaceus@lemmy.mlto Firefox@lemmy.ml•Mozilla is shutting down Pocket, their read-it-later and content discovery app, and Fakespot, their browser extension that analyzes the authenticity of online product reviews.English82·1 month agoI kind of liked visiting https://getpocket.com/explore just to read some of the stories they had posted there, but oh well.
Is Mozilla on its last legs?
EDIT: a more highbrow alternative to the pocket explore articles is Arts & Letters Daily.
Alas Poor Erinaceus@lemmy.mlOPto Open Source@lemmy.ml•Has libremdb been blocked by amazon?English2·1 month agoYeah, I might do the same. Unfortunately, IMDb has been around for quite a long time and has much more information than TMDb does (at least since the last time I checked). TMDb also (I think?) isn’t open source.

Could you explain/elaborate to a know-nothing (me) on the following from your link?:
Caveats of federation: Metadata leaking
When using federation, Matrix’s room states (containing a lot of Metadata) get replicated and stored indefinitely on every homeserver any user connects with or connects to. While this is a feature for enabling distributed chat rooms, it comes at a serious privacy cost.
To avoid this, you can either disable federation, or make sure that your users signed up with no linkable identifiers other than their user names.
Last time I tried SimpleX, you had to scan a QR code to go from Desktop to mobile and vice versa, any chance of them changing that? Otherwise it did look promising.
If I set up Filen to sync my home folder to the cloud and I change VPN countries while it’s syncing, is that likely to cause any technical or security problems?
EDIT: My tests would seem to indicate not, but what does everyone else think? Best practices?
Is that still in development? The desktop client at least looks like it hasn’t been updated in quite some time.
