Wait.
You also #despise #Discord ?

@alcea I despise all #centralized, #proprietary #SingleVendor & #SingleProvider Solutions without exemption!

@kkarhan How do I encrypt my email?

kkarhan, 5 months ago

@eatyourglory use a good eMail client like @thunderbird that makes it trivial or consider some easy-to-use tools like #enc to do so manually.

Pretty shure @cryptoparty and other #CryptoParty accounts still have slides and #documentation available.

I'm currently on the go, so I have none of those available...

@kkarhan @thunderbird @cryptoparty Is Thunderbird available on iOS?

kkarhan, 5 months ago

@eatyourglory no, but that's due to #Apple and them being shitty to devs.
There are #OpenPGP / #PGP/MIME implementations for #iOS tho...

@kkarhan @eatyourglory Apple Mail supports S/MIME and for encrypt/decrypt using GnuPG there are apps like iPGMail … https://apps.apple.com/at/app/ipgmail/id430780873

@me_the_fl00f @eatyourglory

OFC...

Personally, I'm disappointed that #Apple's own #AppleMail doesn't do #PGP/MIME, because that's some very basic feature...

@eatyourglory @kkarhan @cryptoparty We begin development on an iOS version this year.

@thunderbird @kkarhan @cryptoparty Will it have support for encryption?

Protonmail claims to be encrypted

kkarhan, 5 months ago (edited 5 months ago)

@alcea @eatyourglory @thunderbird @cryptoparty

Don't believe @protonmail 's #ads and remember that the only secure #encryption is real #E2EE with #SelfCustody of #Keys!

Because when push comes to shove, noone will save your ass if that means risking jail...

@eatyourglory @thunderbird @cryptoparty That's a aseriously good question, because unless #Thunderbird has #FeatureParity on #mobile and #desktop, #ThunderbirdMobile will be a #downgrade.

And Inot talking aboit the #calendar but #PGP/MIME #encryption as well!

@kkarhan how does this approach work in practice?

kkarhan, 6 months ago

@hllizi very well.

It keeps spam to zero because Spammers can't be bothered to properly sign & encrypt their shit.

In fact, if there was an #eMail provider that were to do that to all incoming and outgoing eMails I'd migrate to them instantly!

hllizi, 6 months ago

@kkarhan I believe that, but whom you keep out is only one side of the story, the other is who will still (want to) get in.

kkarhan, 6 months ago

@hllizi It's 2023 and @thunderbird has #PGP/MIME built in.

There's no excuse for having #unencrypted #eMails except (catering to) lazyness (of others) to properly configure their setup.

hllizi, 6 months ago

@kkarhan @thunderbird I am aware of that, but also of the fact that almost nobody I know actually uses encryption. Their reasons are not for me to judge, I can only say that, were I to move to an encrypted-only approach to Email, I could just do away with Email altogether. Also wouldn't be the worst idea, maybe.

kkarhan, 5 months ago

@hllizi @thunderbird Again: It's so trivial I could give #TechIlliterates a rundown on how to setup that shit in like 5 mins like 15 years ago and back then you'd had to configire basically everything by hand.

Whereas nowadays it's even simpler...

In fact, I encourage you to teach others by doing a #CryptoParty...
