Fair enough.
When I read it, it sounded like popular groups would be listed.... sort of like the 'trending' feeatures on social networks and stuff...

If I was wrong, I stand corrected... Thanks

That's what I read after installing the app (on a trash device).

Not that I'm using it for anything nefarious, but if you're going to claim 100% privacy, I think offering 'discovery' services for popular groups goes very much against that.

In all fairness, I removed it shortly after discovering that... so maybe other users who have stuck around can clarify... I dont mind admitting I read that incorrectly.

I looked at SimpleX a little while ago... and it was looking fine... until I read that they list 'groups' in some kind of directory... like chat rooms I imagine. Deal breaker for me.

ahhh... the network effect....

I wouldn't use it on anything, but if you have to... i'd start by looking if it's possible to use it from a web browser instead of using an app. This way, the browser app will isolate it from having access to your entire device.

@stifle867 @iamtuna

Damn!.... looks like mine failed to block partner.ads.js ... how do I block that?

 

@selfhosted I self-host a few services on my box, but I'm looking for a 'dashboard' like solution to use as a portal to click to each of those. I've seen this before, but can't for the life of me remember what it's called... suggestions? :debian: :linux:
