What’s Emacs? Is it as good as Vim?

iOS feedback is anonymous, but if your feedback was the one about adding a gesture, the screenshot somehow didn’t get attached. If you can submit it again, I’m happy to take a look!

Can someone check my math? I’m estimating Trumps first term tax cuts saved the top 1% at least $100b durning his first term. Trump is complaining about less than $9m being spent here. $9m is 0.009% of $100b. Did I get that all right?

Alright, guess I’m launching the iOS beta. You can join the TestFlight here.

You have no idea how much that means. I’ve spent hours and hours fighting virtualized lists on one platform, only to have to solve it again on another platform. iOS currently has a bug where there are random gaps in the feed. But overall it’s also pretty usable.

I’ve spend a lot of hours on this. I’m at the point where I mainly need to know at least a few people will use this. Then some feedback from those people. But if I get those, I’m happy to keep working on the project!

Right now:

• Uses a native key value store instead of IndexDB. So in theory you shouldn’t get the Voyager database error (if you use Voyager)
• Ability to bypass some borwser things like CORS, allowing me to embed Loops videos. Fetching from loops.video from 3rd party domains is blocked in the browser.

But you raise a good question. Maybe I’m better off focusing on a PWA, as that will simplify cross platform deployment.

My goal is really to provide the best expierence cross patforms as I can. I’ve built the app in a way that will allow me to deploy it to a lot of paces. I’m mostly decided on the UI, but not nessesarily how I distribute the app (natve or PWA).

I will need to have better handling of both error and loading states. Thanks for letting me know about this issue!

I found tor did a very good job of blending you into other tor traffic. But you are only as unique as 1 out of the total number of tor users.

I don’t really know what I’m talking about tbh, but my understanding is the more unique you make yourself, the easier you are to identify. For example, as soon as you use an ad blocker, your browser fingerprint becomes more unique because your average person doesn’t use an ad blocker. Even fewer people use Tor. So if someone knows you are using Tor, then they know you are 1 of maybe 100,000 people instead of millions (idk if those numbers are accurate, but you get the point).

That being said, Tor does do a pretty good job of making you blend into all the other Tor users.

But what I was talking about initially was mostly your ISP identifying your Tor traffic. So you use a VPN, but again you are now more unique than someone not using a VPN, even if your traffic is more encrypted.

Yo chat, we’re cooked
