@gamingonlinux welcome to germany. it started at 6h and thats the max my connection can handle

@bison @gamingonlinux where are you stuck?

#EDGEland??

@kkarhan @gamingonlinux DSL

kkarhan, 10 months ago

@bison @gamingonlinux Yeah, 6Mbit/s #ADSL is bad.

Need something better?
Maybe I can get you setup with something??

bison, 10 months ago

@kkarhan i don't know how and what but i am open for suggestions.
the fact that the wires coming out of the wall up here have a different color than the ones down in the basement is also not a good sign for anything

kkarhan, 10 months ago

@bison Yeah...

But depending on the exact location there may be some options that don't break the bank...

@kkarhan still all ears, any preferred chat client for more privacy?
discord, telegram, matrix, keybase?

kkarhan, 10 months ago

@bison #XMPP-#OMEMO (#MonoclesChat & #Gajim) would be my decison since there are a shitload of accessible servers AND it's fully #E2EE since you're doing #SelfCustody of the #PrivateKeys!

So even if the maintainers of said servers and/or FLOSS'd clients get held at gunpoint, they can't do #Govware #Backdoors...

@kkarhan the only word i understand is XMPP and privatekeys and i currently don't have the brain capacity to get into that UX nightmare again ^^"

so maybe then when it gets better

kkarhan, 10 months ago

@bison #MonoclesChat does make it a breeze tho.

1. Just choose a Server and register on it
2. Login within #MonoclesChat
3. Congratulations, you're all setup...

Take your time...

Self-Care and Helth is always valid - wishing you a swift recovery...

@bison @kkarhan Matrix is ideally the best for privacy. Discord is every bit as proprietary and invasive as Microsoft.

kkarhan, 10 months ago

@mmmgaming @bison I disagree, but only slightly.
I'd put #XMPP first and thirectly then #Matrix.

But I've to agree that all #SingleVemdor / #SingleProvider "solutions" regardless if #Signal or #WhatsApp are bad due to #centralization.

@gamingonlinux slow? Lol,

@gamingonlinux I'm not sure if it is the game or Steam. I have noticed that Steam has been downloading slowly lately, despite having a fast CPU, SSD, and internet speed.

mmmgaming, 10 months ago

@gamingonlinux oh that's why my downloads are so slow! I'm trying to put God if War on my freshly built Steam Machine 😂

jarmer, 10 months ago

@gamingonlinux LOL all gamers everywhere downloading the same thing all at once! And 100mb is speedy!
