Well HomeAssistant launched one just recently


I’m starting to wish I had an account on Lemmy.ML you guys are based & badasses (But that’s a topic for another day)

I still wish they didn’t check for Unique usernames, the DHT should be enough & the username should be a supplement that can be edited later


But isn’t UnifiedPush libre & privacy-respecting enough ?


Why the fascination with GNU ?


The only issue I have with GNU-Jami <u>is them checking for Unique Usernames</u> it’s annoying & problematic<br> You have the DHT (“Distributed Hash-Table” based on Ethereum) & that should be enough<br> why even check for the uniqueness of the attached username ?<br> The DHT should be the ID & names need to be detachable from it<br> & we can’t even edit the username once registered

Otherwise it’s high-quality Libre/Free-Software but with room for improvements


How about Movim ?? It’s an XMPP-Based Social-Media/Microblogging platform


Well then here are some alternatives:

  1. Proton
  2. Disroot
  3. Tuta (Formerly Tutanota)
  4. Posteo
  5. Mailbox


Isn’t that technically Source-Available ?


I mean there’s GNU-Taler but it hasn’t acheived mass-adoption Unless your stores has a cryptocurrency option, you’re better off with cash
