#WhatsApp notified roughly 200 users, mostly in Italy, that they installed a fake app containing “Spyrtacus” spyware made by Italian firm ASIGINT, a subsidiary of SIO Spa. Proving my theory that the best way to stay safe on the Internet is to avoid #Meta. There are so many better messaging platforms like #Sigal and #Threema. You don’t need Meta garbage on your devices

Thanks to #Sigal for a quick and easy way to share photos with visitors (using #FOSS). It creates a static website from a dir of photos, that's it.
People on your home network can easily browse through your holiday snaps and when you're finished just shut the whole thing down. A lot of other photo software has other bells and whistles but when you just need something simple in a hurry try Sigal!

I am having a problem with figuring out the ignore_directories configuration with the sigal gallery maker. I can't seem to get the form correct because the directories (and sub-directories) keep getting into the build.

I have also looked at the docs and for examples, but haven't come across anything. #googlesucks

Very happy with the quick and easy static image gallery I was able to generate with #sigal

Great for sharing photos and videos with the family!
