I'm not sure what point you're trying to make here. You start by agreeing that telegram is simply not private. Then you move on to implying that it must be, because the CEO got arrested?
How does that change the fact that it is, by your own assessment, not private?
To answer your question, the answer from my perspective is quite simple. Noncompliance. If telegram had complied to local laws, like the others have and continue to do, he would not have gotten in trouble.
I'm still confused about people who consider telegram a private chat.
It's easy to verify for yourself that it isn't, so how is this still going around?
Unpopular opinion: he's pretty decent at it.
I'm not an asshole, so I don't even think of committing the crimes he's done, but I'm sure if I tried, I'd be in jail faster than a blink of an eye.
The fact that he's managed to do this repeatedly over the course of decades, out in the open where everyone is aware of it, and still only getting a slap on the wrist?
I'd say he's a pretty good crime guy
My gf used that when she migrated from Spotify to tidal. Worked quite well for that, but I'm not sure how it can work for recommendations though
Sure!
I used the integration to fill in the gaps I have in my personal collection. With tidal, I could start playing my own music and plexamp would just drop in some new songs for me.
It would create some playlists based on what I listened to, which again helped to discover new music.
I could just start using tidal, but that means turning my back on my personal collection. Or I could give up tidal, but that means losing the recommendations.
I'm asking here for help with the latter
This looks like a decent option. Do you know if they have an api? I can't find any info on the website
I already know what my friends listen to... Thats why I want computer recommendations!
Funkwhale would be good, but from my experience with it, it's a bit dead
I've also had some decent luck when using a new/unfamiliar language by asking it to make the code I wrote more idiomatic.
It's been a nice way to learn some tricks I probably wouldn't have bothered with before
Is there a way to follow mastodon accounts through Lemmy?
Obama famously used twitter in his first election campaign to create effect. In the brief moment when I had an account, he was my only follower
Not much of this makes sense. Maybe we don't have an equal understanding of private. If thats the case, this discussion is going nowhere.
I will point out, though, that this is particularly nonsensical
Telegram doesn't use encryption. Everything is in clear text. Nobody needs a back door to get access. Not even governments. It's all just out in the open
