I reduced my account usage by 99% in 2019 and then fully deleted it in 2023 after having used it very very little probably like one time a year after 2019. If that
Welcome to the dark side.
I’m not sure because I’m on a OnePlus device running a lineage OS.
What you are describing is the tor network.
Now, if you are going to a hidden service and not out to the standard internet, it does this process twice and so you get six hops in between yourself and the hidden service instead of the three to the standard internet.
The SimpleX battery drain issue does not affect everyone. At least for me, it has been perfectly fine.
We really don’t have to advocate or evangelize for it much considering the fact that it’s completely used on the dark net for drug purchases. Love them or hate them. Criminals are the first ones to adapt. New better technology. And then everybody else follows on after that. That video is a lot of guesswork and most of it is completely solvable either today or in the very near future. The idea that they can trace Monero depends on compromised nodes which is fixed by running your own node or using somebody you trust as a node provider trading with a centralized exchange which is easily solved by not trading with a centralized exchange, and ring signature weaknesses that are well-known and in the process of being fixed.
Monero is intensely focused on being the world’s best private digital cash system for making purchases on a day-to-day basis, such as your coffee from Starbucks, your items on Amazon, etc. It is uniquely positioned because governments absolutely cannot stand it, but it provides privacy for those who use it, and so the government cannot stop it, even though they absolutely wish they could.
Monero People are actually working very hard to build a circular economy and use Monero as a daily currency. I am also extremely glad that Lady Bird exists because while it is not ready yet, I think it’s going to end up being an escape hatch for when Mozilla finally kicks the bucket.
Oh, I know Monero uses proof of work and therefore uses power. However, my thought is that Monero can replace the banks and so you’ve got to consider how much power it takes to run bank buildings and bank employees cars and armored trucks etc. Also, since Monero is mined with CPUs instead of application-specific integrated circuits, you don’t get a bunch of miners in one place. They are much more distributed throughout the entire power grid. So like we don’t have giant mining farms located in Texas that is causing noise pollution to the nearby towns and stuff like that. We also don’t have big mining companies causing drama in the news.
Edit: Proof of work is truly required because it literally backs the value of your currency with energy. And proof of stake has no physical backing.
I wonder if there’s been any further information on this. Donating Monero seems like a great idea for them. However, if they want to insist that the entire crypto community is energy-wasting shit bags, then that makes me want to have a lot less to do with them.
I don’t text people because texting is not secure. I use the default AOSP app that comes with lineage OS to receive text message codes like those six digit codes but otherwise I only use messengers such as signal
Edit: To stop anybody from saying it, yes, I’m quite aware that getting OTP codes via SMS is not secure, and I do not use it for any account that will let me turn it off entirely. But some, unfortunately, will not. And so I do not trust those accounts very much.
HTTPS doesn’t stop them from knowing what you visited. It just stops them from knowing what you did while you were there. VVPN provider can still see that you visited Google, but they cannot see what you asked for Google to do for you.
If it truly keeps no logs, then it cannot tell what you are doing. But otherwise, a VPN provider can indeed tell what you’re doing because you are only shifting the trust from your internet service provider to your VPN provider. I would highly recommend something like IVPN or Mullvad and only pay for it in Monero. That way, even if logs are kept, you are just a number account to them and they do not have a name for you.
I’m confused. What are you on about? My comment has no screenshots at all.
I have not used Neo Store though i have heard good things. I like droid-ify and have used it in the past.
It will recognize your apps once they get one update and then they will begin auto-updating again like they were. But fdroid itself is increasing its Android versions to catch up. I think it’s targeting Android 10 or 11 now when it was targeting like Android 6.
Oh dear Lord! SO BAD!!!
I don’t even know what mine is set to. I guess whatever the default is, because I don’t remember changing it.
