Found out about @delta , what a clever concept of using email as the exchange medium, even helps preventing it from getting blocked, since email is used everywhere.

I think I've missed it previously exactly because of the emphasis of the email feature, I thought it would require creating an email account to use, but if you use their servers, all you need to setup an account is a username and you will automatically get an email address in their server and be able to use the app right away.

The UI is very friendly and familiar to other chat apps.

End-to-end privacy guaranteed and audited!

Now gotta figure a way to get my people in there!

Thank you for you work @delta

We’re proud to see CryptPad technology powering the new Online Vault in Murena Workspace, part of the /e/OS 3.0 release.

It brings end-to-end encrypted file storage and real-time collaboration right into your phone. A big step for privacy that stays easy to use.

Built in Europe. Open source.

Just the way we like it.

Thanks to the Murena team for making strong encryption accessible.

I use both #Crytomator and #VeraCrypt. Yes they have different use cases, but Cryptomator's use cases are much more varied than VeraCrypt's.

I'm just concerned about a Post-Quantum world. Every product and application that implements #encryption needs to implement #PQC today for their users' sake.

Devices like the PinePhone and Librem 5 are slowly carving out space for open mobile computing. These are not sleek consumer devices built for mass market appeal. They are platforms built by and for developers, hackers, and those who demand control over their hardware. With full root access, modular apps, and support for desktop-grade Linux distros like postmarketOS, Mobian, and Arch ARM, they challenge the locked-down nature of traditional smartphones.

While performance and battery life still lag behind mainstream phones, the focus is on freedom: running your own code, replacing parts, and escaping corporate ecosystems. For privacy advocates and tinkerers alike, Linux phones represent a small but significant shift in how we think about mobile tech.

New Tool Exposes How Ads in Apps Use Network Data Tracking to Trace Your Location

Magicwormhole was created by developer Brian Warner as a response to the overly complex ways people transfer files securely. Introduced in the mid-2010s, it aimed to make file transfers between devices as simple and trustworthy as handing a USB stick to someone next to you.

At its core, magicwormhole uses a concept called PAKE, or Password Authenticated Key Exchange, which allows two computers to establish a secure, encrypted channel over the internet using a short one-time code. That code acts as both an identifier and a temporary password, ensuring the connection can’t be intercepted or spoofed.

The project gained popularity in privacy and open source circles for its ease of use and its ability to work across firewalls, NAT, and without user accounts. Unlike most tools, it requires no setup, servers, or third-party cloud services. It simply connects you to the other device, does the job, and vanishes.

It remains one of the cleanest examples of what simple, privacy-respecting software can look like.
