Yeah, it’s only an aggregator that then points you to the original content. For legal reasons, I don’t think OpenSourcely would be able to host the original content natively.

I started a website called OpenSourcely to do exactly this.

It aggregates news, projects, and announcements related to open source.

I’m always on the lookout for new RSS feeds and outlets to add to it, so if anyone has any, feel free to send them my way.

Sounds like it. It happens with other Google services too. Someone could share a GDoc to your non-Gmail email, but if that non-Gmail email isn’t a Google account, then you won’t be able to access the doc/comments/whatever else (depending on the doc permissions, of course).

I suppose “harm” can be subjective in this context, and there are already some good replies here.

One more thing to add to the list that I’d consider harmful in creating a Gmail account is all of the privacy issues that come with having a Gmail account.

Out of respect for my recipients and myself, I wouldn’t want all of our emails being read.

We can go down the rabbit hole of “Email is inherently insecure anyways,” but that’s a separate discussion.

Nice to see this as a standard, thanks. Edited to reflect this.

Cases like these are why this extension exists: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/don-t-fuck-with-paste/

Don’t worry, it’s not complicated at all. A little inconvenient maybe, but that’s always the trade-off when it comes to privacy and security.

Here are the two most convenient ways that I can think of on each OS.

iOS: Bookmark the frontend URL. When you get sent a link, pop open the page and paste the TikTok URL.

Android: Get Firefox and set it as your default browser. Install the LibRedirect add-on (browser extension). Whenever you get sent a URL, just tap it and it’ll automatically get redirected to the privacy-friendly frontend.

Only time will tell.

I know this one also went down recently for Instagram: proxigram.privacyfrontends.repl.co

But I’m not sure if it was an Instagram change that did it, or Replit took it down or what.

See my comment above

Most of my friends know better than to send me TikTok links. But for the few who still do, I use this open source frontend called ProxiTok.

To get TikTok links to redirect automatically on click, use the LibRedirect extension.

This is why enshittification might be a good thing ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Canva.

Their feature set and functionality is great, but their vendor lock-in is really off-putting. Even just within their platform, it’s really difficult to move assets around within workspaces.

Let alone edit graphics that you made on Canva and edit them elsewhere, say Penpot, for example.

At least you can say the experience was lit

Selena - No Me Queda Más

Arctic Monkeys - 505

Eminem - Headlights

GnR - November Rain

Privacy is a fundamental human right. Plain and simple.

Online, offline, doesn’t matter. No one should ever have to pay for it. Especially not to a surveillance company.

uBlock Origin filter lists is what seems to work best. You get nothing but the raw URL.

Not at the moment. You’ll have to use ClearURLs or uBlock Origin filter lists if you don’t wanna have to right click.

Nope. I suppose in theory it could, but not necessarily—it’d be up to Apple/Google to make the color decisions regarding that.

The important thing here is that it’s not about the colors themselves, but about what the colors signify.

Apple chose blue to denote that the message you’re sending is to another Apple device. By default, this Apple-to-Apple message uses the iMessage protocol. If it uses iMessage, then that implies a certain security standard.

Apple also made the deliberate choice to denote non-iMessage texts with green. If it’s green, then it’s SMS/MMS, you lose iMessage encryption, and other features like reactions.

The colors are not gonna change by default—it’s up to them to coordinate what colors are used for what. Apple’s not gonna open up iMessage (at least not voluntarily, and we saw how far they’ll go with Beeper), so Google can’t do anything about that. Which is also why they’re pushing so hard to get Apple to adopt RCS.

If Apple does adopt RCS, maybe they’ll denote it with purple bubbles, who knows. Then you’d have iMessage as blue, RCS as purple, and SMS/MMS as green.

But again, this is all about what each color signifies in terms of privacy and security.
