#Security#Nerds and #Experts of #Mastodon, I have a #Question for you.
.
.
I am attempting to de-#Google my digital life (as much as is possible at the moment). I got myself an #Android#MobilePhone that does not have Google services installed on it, and I am using #FDroid, #AuroraStore, #APKPure, etc. to get the apps, and using the #AppBrain#AdDetector and #DuckDuckGo's #App#Tracking#Protection (#Beta built into their mobile browser).
.
I am doing my best to use #minimal apps, and only getting ones that are not security focused when necessary. I am not logging into Google, or any other #BigSocial/ #BigData services except when necessary.
.
My question is, are there any #SMS / #Texting apps that allow you to login on the #Web and #sync messages to your phone (even if only on the same network), and a #keyboard that has #VoiceToText that does not use Google or #Microsoft? I am currently using #SwiftKey, but only until I figure out the #T9 app I am using with the KB (HYBRID phone running Android 11).
Zugriff auf die Daten Fremder, durch das »hochzählen« von Patienten-IDs. Solche leichtsinnigen Anfängerfehler dürfen einfach nicht mehr passieren - schon gar nicht bei sensiblen Gesundheitsdaten. Wer sowas verbockt - am besten gleich den Laden dicht machen. Echt jetzt, unfassbar. Und welcher Pentester das übersieht, hat ebenfalls den falschen Beruf. 🙈
Gerade mal von @ivory zu @MonaApp gewechselt. Gebe der App mal außerhalb der Beta eine Chance. 14 Tage kostenlos alle Funktionen. Und derzeitig noch rabattiert und #KeinAbo sondern #Einmalkauf
PSA: From today the Dublin Bus real time information app will no longer work, you'll need to switch to the "TFI Live" app.
It's less intuitive than the Dublin Bus one so you might want to familiarise yourself with it before it's your only option. #Dublin#Bus#app
Is there a dead-simple Android #app that just hides a scratch pad in the notifications drawer? If I need to remember to "call Joe", I don't necessarily want to wade into a todo app or a document database. (In a saner time, we used Post-It notes or just wrote on our damn hands ... sometimes using apps increases our cognitive load.)
Been testing @MonaApp for a while now and just bought a license for it. It’s a one-time activation (which I hope will be able to sustain its independent developer). Check it out if some of your devices are still stuck in Apple’s walled garden.
Die Apps der Deutschen Bahn (DB Navigator) sind nicht nur datenschutzunfreundlich, sondern auch rechtswidrig. Dank des Deutschlandtickets kann der ein oder andere aber vermutlich auf die App(s) verzichten und benötigt eine reine Angabe der Fahrzeiten. Das bietet Transportr - und zwar vollkommen datenschutzfreundlich! 👏👇
Unsere Analyse zeigt wie sich die Booking.com-App deiner persönlichen Daten bedient und damit deine Urlaubsträume in einen Datenschutz-Albtraum verwandelt. 👇🌴
Heute Abend zur Mastodon-Prime-Time (20:30 Uhr) erscheint der App-Check zur Booking.com-App. Rechtlich bewertet von @peterhense. Teaser aus dem Fazit: "Die Datenschutzverletzungen von Booking.com sind vergleichbar mit einem verheerenden Verkehrsunfall, der so erschütternd ist, dass man einfach nicht wegsehen kann."
I know I'm far from the first person to point this out but it blows my mind how people are going bonkers over AI and how it's going to change everything when every time I use it it just plagiarizes a pre-existing website
Everyone says "don't use the official #MastodonApp", though I have no idea why.
Heard good things about #Metatext but I also heard it's no longer maintained?
So I tried #Ivory@ivory but I have to sign up for a subscription just to find out what benefits a subscription gives (aside from the ability to post). Nope, sorry.
App must: have no ads, obviously, and absolutely must handle posting & reading threads in a sane and sensible way (unlike the web)
