Ah the donation goal, good point

Where did you get to that 60 cents number? They mention they need 65k for 90 days of critical infrastructure so I calculate:

65000 / 90 * 365 = 263611,11 euro per year for critical infrastructure

263611,11 / 1700000 claimed users = 0,155 euro per user per year

15,5 cents per user per year is still huge though, compared to delta chat's 0,1 cent per user per year. (which should be comparable since they are both encrypted decentralized messengers)

Then it should be fine even without the org?

Edit: It will not be fine without the org, so the "decentralized" claim is a bit of a stretch. From their FAQ:

[...] the lack of funding would mean the foundation is not able to support Session in any capacity and will need to be shut down. As a result, Session would be removed from the app stores, and critical infrastructure like the Session file server, push notification server and seed nodes will go offline.

They are referencing the sticker in the image, but I’ve never heard of halal milk as you need to take away a mother’s baby which is inherently cruel and therefore haram so not sure what that’s about.

Yes halal certification only confirms that they are killed without stunning or anesthesia while speaking a specific phrase. However keeping them in small cages or hurting them in any other way during their life is also haram so basically all meat, milk and eggs are haram while at the same time some meat is halal certified.

Generally these kind of websites turn into companies that take hush money to delete bad reviews, eg glassdoor/yelp

Around 99% of all chat reports sent to police in Europe come from a single US corporation: Meta. US tech giants are acting as private auxiliary police forces—without any effective European oversight.

Curious coincidence that when it seems to become illegal to scan private chats they make their chats less private

The comic (and you) are pretending veganism is just a silly diet instead of a social justice movement. You may not be doing this intentionally but the OP posts this same misuse day after day.

Similarly if someone repeatedly posted jokes about another social justice movement, eg feminism, that would get pretty annoying too.

This user regularly posts intentional misuse of the term vegan either as misinfo or ragebait.

Kbin went down so I choose the biggest one to not have to deal with it going down

Joined by XMPP-messengers Cheogram and Monocles, and supported by many contributing experts in the background, we are playfully addressing the no-billionaire-platforms challenge with webxdc, a container format and API for “chat-shared web apps”. Technically, webxdc apps are network-sandboxed HTML5 apps and instead of the HTTP protocol they use Peer-to-Peer send/receive APIs implemented by webxdc-capable messengers, rebasing relations between developers and users by saying

  • Bye Bye to surveillance capitalism: Users have both the code and the data of their web apps in their hands and benefit from end-to-end encrypted messaging not only during regular chat messaging but also during their private web app usage.

  • Bye Bye to user policing (logins, passwords, OAUTH, TOS and privacy policies etc.): Web app developers never obtain or touch any user data or user identities, and can have peace of mind of not being responsible for any data, and not having to program identity management and social discovery UIs. Messengers already provide it through arranging chat groups or rooms.

  • Bye Bye to depending on a corp or org that enshittifies: Messengers, as decentralized runners of webxdc apps in chat groups, can not hold web app developers, their users or data hostage. Consult Cory Doctorow’s “Ulysses Pact” for why this is a good idea.

This all sounds too good to be true, right? But what if another reality is possible by just stretching out our hands and grabbing it?
