I'd not be pissed if I had actually violated some ToS or something.

- I didn't use any #bots or #tools.
- I merely used the provided #LinkGenerator on https://partner.ebay.com
- I didn't use #Messengers or #eMail to advertise or spread #AffiliateLinks.

All that seemingly happened was someone following a link on this post, but buying some other item in the €250+ range and that got me flagged or something...

- Are there even Humans at the #eBayPartnerProgram?

Die Entwickler von #WhatsApp gestalten die App für #iOS weiter im Liquid-Glass-Design. Halbtransparente Leisten und schwebende Elemente sollen jetzt auch das Chat-Fenster des #Messengers modernisieren. https://winfuture.de/news,158490.html?utm_source=Mastodon&utm_medium=ManualStatus&utm_campaign=SocialMedia
WhatsApp mit Liquid Glass: Design der iOS-App wird noch transparenter

WhatsApp überarbeitet seine iOS-Benutzeroberfläche grundlegend. Mit einem neuen Design passen die Entwickler den Messenger immer weiter an die aktuelle Liquid-Glass-Optik von Apple an. Jetzt ist auch der Chat-Bildschirm an der Reihe.

@leanderlindahl Imagine all the people sharin' all the world, no national and regional #messengers, there is one communication standard, #XMPP?

Have you taken a look at #Jitsi? #Conferencing

I know for certain that Element is functional over #tor and is being developed with security enhancements via webcat (https://github.com/freedomofpress/webcat) that remind me of the cell authentication innovations in #rustlang #Arti http://i3xi5qxvbrngh3g6o7czwjfxwjzigook7zxzjmgwg5b7xnjcn5hzciad.onion/tor-spec/negotiating-channels.html#AUTHENTICATE-cells

Title: P0: I found a book about using messangers. [2025-01-18 Sat]

And made
a little research with AI.
Here is my principles for messanger:
1 Short, bite-sized chunks.
2 Time and context awarness.
3 Visual structured.
4 Treat the sender's name with care.
5 Always replay if sender is online.
6 First think what, then think why - what sender
expect. For example, he can tell you about his plans #dailyreport #messaging #messengers

Quite a strange situation in Russia: on the one hand, almost all foreign #messengers that deserve attention are blocked, on the other hand, the #Signal #messenger creates obstacles for users in #Russia and not only.

Any piece of Software that lets you share Media with others, be it #messengers like #signal or SMPs like #mastodon or #bluesky, should prompt you to decide, whether you want to keep, change or delete the #metadata of the media file.

The same goes imo for any application, that lets you insert media files into larger documents, like #zettlr, #joplin, #LibreOffice, etc.

All these applications should offer both, a default setting AND a per-file prompt/switch that allows to make this decision.

This is BETTER than stripping metadata silently by default because:

* it creates awareness for the issue with the user base.
* I do not have to remember for each application I work with, how it handles the problem. (I should not have to read through the docs for this!)
* thus I will not have to use third party tools to remove metadata each time i share a pic, when it is actually done by the main application anyway.
* last but not least, there are cases where it is better or even important to preserve metadata.

Title: P1: Messangers the Matrix, IRC, Telegram ꙮ [2024-04-14 Sun]
Very sad. :'(

There are many old folks in IRC still. IRC is very healthy.
▬▬ι══════════ﺤ
But there are proprietary Slack and open the Matrix that can be
turned to IRC group. Telegram have lack of this ability.

IRC folks says: we all know censorship only works when messages
are recorded, not just forwarded.

PS. What is learning? Searching for new latent spaces.

There are two approaches for messengers: "phonetube" ♂ and
"blogging" ♁.
- phonetube: IRC - don't allow to edit previous messages
- blogging: Telegram, the Matrix, Slack, web forums

I installed "Irssi" IRC client, terminal based. ⧂
You edit message and can not undo change that was not sent yet.
It is like to have a perfect mighty sword and you are limited to use it. #Irssi #irc #messaging #messengers #communication #censorship
