Discord is trying to sneak in unannounced privacy changes again.

A new beta feature called "Clips" allows voice chat to be recorded. You have to dig up the new setting and manually opt-out.

kkarhan,

@Dandelion This shit should be illegal!

#YetAnotherReason to never use #Discord and/or any other #centralized #SingleVendor / #SingleProvider "Solution"!

#MicrosoftTeams and anything else are just like Dicsord, but worse!

Consider #IRC, #XMPP, #Zulip, #JitsiMeet or #WebCall depending on your workflows instead...

You're welcome!

Every time Microsoft buys an online service, they destroy it. Microsoft github is progressing along approximately the same timeline as the others:

Microsoft bought Hotmail when it was THE webmail service, now there's a bunch:

Microsoft bought Skype when it was THE voip+video service, now there's a bunch:

Microsoft bought github when it was THE git hosting platform...

kkarhan,

@skribe @landley also and espechally -based tools like and put the final nails in the coffin for .

Cuz why use their service when others provide a better service?

kkarhan,

@anedroid @joeo10 @retr0id @signalapp @element So kinda like #WebCall?
http://webcall.timur.mobi/

Cuz I'm used to #JitsiMeet for that as it flawlessly integrates in #Zulip and I've deployed both several times in production...

Tbh phone calls would be much more useful if you could set a nickname and call topic

Like, I'm just gonna ignore any and all calls from unknown numbers unless I expect one.

Nach Ausbruch der Coronapandemie beschlossen die EU-Staaten, ein Videokonferenzsystem für Top-Secret-Treffen anzuschaffen. Doch auch ein Jahr nach dem geplanten Start lässt das System weiter auf sich warten. Zu den Gründen schweigt der Rat.

kkarhan,

@fantafanta vielleicht weil man mit #TVöD E9 keine gescheiten IT'ler*innen bekommt die wissen wie memsch nen #OpenVPn oder gar #WireGuard & #JitsiMeet oder auch nur #WebCall installiert?

Uhm ... Frage: Gibt es legale Wege, um an alte Briefkästen der Deutschen Post zu kommen? Also, die großen gelben, die überall rumhängen und regelmäßig geleert werden. (also: gibt es sowas wie "dp-gebrauchtbriefkasten dot de"?)

Frage für eine schlechte Idee.

kkarhan,

@ClipHead @konfusionsmatrix

Was ich gern mal sehen würde, wären anonyme Kommunikationszellen mit Schalldämmung und Sichtschutz Quasi wie nen [#Datenklo] wo Mensch anonym per #WebCall & #JitsiMeet oder #Cryptofon & #PocketCrypto kommunizieren kann...

kkarhan,

@ClipHead @konfusionsmatrix

#WebCall ist zumindest nen interessanter Ansatz, weils's wie #JitsiMeet ne #WebRTC-Verbindung aufbaut, aber auf #E2EE setzt und direkt Peer-to-Peer läuft, die Server nur für NAT-Punching dienen...

j0, to random

oh to be a discord user with infinite energy to complain about the new feature but zero energy to switch platform

kkarhan,

@j0 I call that #StockholmSyndrome, since there are better options longer than the dumpsterfire that is #discord.

Need a #public chat?
#IRC does that.

Need #voicechat?
#Mumble got you covered.

Want to have an organization chat?
Check out #Zulip.

Need #Videocalls in a Group?
#JitsiMeet does that excellent.

Want private 1:1 chats? #XMPP - #OMEMO to the rescue!

Or do you need some private #VideoCalling / #VoiceCalling? Consider #WebCall!

There is no good reason to use #Discord!
