@keenworld I agree. They started with email a decade ago and even though it was unfinished they tacked on calendar, storage, vpn and so on. I would have wished that they finish one thing before starting another.

My biggest gripe is that they are incredibly distracting to use while driving. The safety implications are huge. I hate on-screen buttons. On top of that most are poorly coded and run slowly.
Extra oversight for powers to scan encrypted messages for child abuse images passed by peers.

@rideranton Fantastic news, thank you very much for your work!
If you use Signal a lot, you might want to change your PIN number. Maybe you’ve been the victim of hacking recently, or maybe you just want to keep one step ahead of the game and change your credentials.

Personally, I created two communities here that I frequented on /r, /m/Amex and /m/Signal because I wanted to help build kbin up overall, and give a home to those that migrated. Full disclosure, I will eventually step back from moderating once those communities grow and become self-sufficient with additional moderators joining in.

The Signal president spoke with CyberScoop about AI, encryption and the growing threat to privacy.
I am aware that upvoted posts make it to [https://kbin.social/fav](https://kbin.social/fav) however that just doesn't work well as I already have 1,000+ pages in there. Moreover, that only registers upvoted posts and not comments. A workaround would be to just use boost, and only upvote when you want to "save" but that is just not conventional imho. The ability on /r to simply save a comment or a post is truly basic but effective.

I was airdropping some recent vacation pictures to my MBP from my wife's iPhone 13 Pro and noticed that most files ended up being around 2MB in size which I thought was very small. Started doing some experimenting and discovered the following: When selecting a set of pictures in Photos on Mac or an iPhone and selecting Share - Airdrop to another Mac or iPhone, the pictures are compressed 5-fold. (they go from 10MB to 2MB). When selecting the same set of pictures in Photos on Mac or an iPhone, exporting them to a folder, and then selecting that folder and using Share - Airdrop to another Mac or iPhone, the pictures are not compressed. (file size unchanged). After doing some research, I found out that two settings need to be adjusted on your iPhone. One, you need to go to Settings \> Photos, and under Transfer to Mac and PC, select Keep Originals (that's a permanent setting). Two, and that is not a permanent setting, you have to do it every single time (totally stupid imo), when you are tapping the Share icon, before you tap AirDrop, look for the Options button at the top of the Share sheet, select that, and toggle on All Photos Data (that option does not exist in Photos on a Mac or at least I can't find it). Doing the two will result in full-sized pictures via AirDrop. Pretty annoying that this is so convoluted and now I finally know why we sent low-quality photos to friends in the past.
Meredith Whittaker, president of secure messaging service Signal, said a provision in the Bill focused on encryption had “significant issues” around the mass surveillance of private information.

Although I never used sms via Signal I agree on both points. The Stories venture was such a flop.
In this Signal review, we’ll look at the capabilities, usability, and security that Signal offers. We’ll also talk about how the design of the service provides extremely strong protection for your privacy. Signal is truly impressive, so let’s cut the chatter and dig in to the review.
It seems that any Lemmy.world and Lemmy.ml hosted communities aren't any longer federating properly via kbin as I started getting 404 errors on all of them. Examples: [https://lemmy.world/c/personalfinance](https://lemmy.world/c/personalfinance): ok [https://kbin.social/m/personalfinance@lemmy.world](https://kbin.social/m/personalfinance@lemmy.world): 404 [https://lemmy.ml/c/fire](https://lemmy.ml/c/fire): ok [https://kbin.social/m/finance@lemmy.ml](https://kbin.social/m/finance@lemmy.ml): 404 [https://beehaw.org/c/finance](https://beehaw.org/c/finance): ok [https://kbin.social/m/finance@beehaw.org](https://kbin.social/m/finance@beehaw.org): ok
You can now use Lemmy Explorer to easily look up Communities and generate kbin-friendly links! 1. Go to [https://lemmyverse.net/](https://lemmyverse.net/) 2. Click on "Communities" on top center 3. Click on the house button on top right, and enter "kbin.social" as your instance (or any other kbin instance you may be using) 4. Toggle switch below on for "Instance links use /m/" (yellow) 5. Browse, search, and sort as you wish 6. All links will be in the in the [https://kbin.social/m/community@instance.tld](https://kbin.social/m/community@instance.tld) format :)
