🚀 Oh joy, another app to protect the tinfoil-hat-wearing Linux crowd from the dreaded automatic updates, the horror! 😂 Because, clearly, nothing screams security like trusting a random third-party app instead of "foreign-controlled" software. 🙄 Linux users, rejoice in your newfound paranoia! 🛡️

If a third party can see your screen, what's keeping you safe from third party leaks of sensitive data?

Apparently not much, as 21 million screen shots were leaked.

Hey y’all, how’s it going? Quick question for those on Bluesky: I just started trying it out this morning, and it’s pretty cool so far. Are there any third-party apps you’d recommend that are more accessible? The official app is good, but I’m curious about other options out there. Let me know!

Reddit admits more moderator protests could hurt its business https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2024/02/reddit-failing-to-support-third-party-apps-could-hurt-business-ipo-filing-says/

Reddit acknowledges in its recent filing that potential backlash from moderators could have a negative impact on its business operations. The platform's failure to adequately support third-party apps may pose a threat, especially as it gears up for its IPO.

@BrianJohnson @estebanknobl Yes, that is the great thing about Mastodon; developers can build really great third-party apps with amazing features. Tag groups in Ice Cubes has been a game-changer for me and is a feature that keeps me coming back to Mastodon. Makes it easy to find relevant conversations that I want to engage in. #Mastodon #IceCubes #TagGroups #ThirdPartyApps

so, twitter limits us to 5 accounts on the desktop website. which is kind of annoying because, in addition to the current 5 accounts i have on there, i want to also add the one that addresses exersise, but the 5 i have are the ones i more need. this is just one reason the move to ban third party twitter apps is/was annoying and even then kind of the same situation for reddit: there's little bits of features that different people will find useful and a ban on third party applications can sort of make a bit of a mess. i mean, financially, they want to consolidate a little bit i guess. and so, in a way, reddit is being *slightly* kinder? than twitter, in terms of, they're sort of still letting *a few* third party apps now like relay and redreader etc. even if they'll eventually be paid only, at least they'll still exist so that they can be used by *some* people.

#RedditBlackout #Reddit Hundreds of communities on Reddit went dark on Monday to protest upcoming changes to the platform that would charge #ThirdPartyApps to access the site, a move third-party developers say would force them to shut down.
#CanadianSubreddits have also joined the protest.
