What? How do you derive that reading from the parent comment?


When I used `pass`, I synced the password store between all my personal devices with Syncthing (non-centralized file syncing tool) and kept the store history with git. This worked surprisingly well and was even pleasantly usable on my phone with a third-party android app I found.


Indeed, his dedication to fitness and taste in fine leather clothing is quite admirable!


It's a band-aid solution really, but I can recommend you check out the launcher Lawnchair. It looks and behaves much like the stock launcher, but is far more customizable, letting you change the things you mentioned. Thankful that Android will still let you change out the launcher, at least.


yes the fact that it CAN be fixed is a huge plus but I think for most people the frustration of having to fix unpleasant UX decisions, clearly just made to get people to use their device in a specific way, feels like enough of an FU to warrant considering other options. Android is starting to feel like the choice for people that really want to tinker with their phones, install custom roms etc. but it lacks a middle ground option between that and just going with ios to not being bothered by so much nonsense. then again I rarely use ios so maybe I'm just not aware of the equivalent annoyances


Oh ok then, I forgot that there aren't people who are further right-wing than the Republican party...


You said to read the forum, I did. Saw no comments about politics, threads of people laughing at both sides of the political spectrum (with the majority of threads being apolitical). So where's these 'far-right' people hiding?

It's more embarrassing to not provide evidence that is supposedly easily found when asked.


Nobody here is your personal librarian. Nobody owes you some carefully cited reply. The original point that was made is widely accepted by every neutral party familiar with the topic, it wasn’t some fringe theory. Then the replies started coming in that were at best ignorant and at worst bad faith demanding proof.

It’s like trying to argue with your crazy uncle at Christmas about global warming. I’m not going to play that dumb game with you and not should anyone else feel compelled to. If you had any genuine interest in getting an answer it wouldn’t be difficult but it looks much more like you just want to be some contrarian for the hell of it.


I'm not saying you owe me anything. I'm just saying if you want to convince anybody you shouldn't just say there are people who agree with me but I won't tell you who they are or the examples they point to.


The point I was trying to make is that you’re walking into a conversation that’s multiple years old and not particularly controversial and then demanding that people do the work for you in order to help catch you up.

I think if you were serious about actually wanting to know it wouldn’t be difficult to do which is why it seems like you’re just wanting to be contrarian for the sake of it.

Maybe you could expand upon what you’ve done so far to try and answer the question for yourself?

I was responding to someone who spent a grand total of several seconds on the topic before coming to a conclusion that they felt so strongly about that they thought they would come and argue with randoms on the internet about and as far as I can tell they put more effort in than you have so far.


It apparently is controversial. There are multiple people asking for proof that KiwiFarm is far right in this thread. If it was so obvious maybe there wouldn't be so many people asking.

If you don't care enough to do anything other than make statements without providing proof why should I care enough to find sources to confirm what you are saying? If you want others to put in effort maybe put in a modicum of effort yourself?

I have done some research into KiwiFarms. A few months ago, there was some drama in a certain section of the far right. I was interested in what it was about and ended up coming across a streamer on the far right involved with the drama. He was accusing members of KiwiFarms of coordinating harassment against him. I read through the posts and there was some harassment and doxing against him. (The posts are now removed). I was interested if this was common on the forum and didn't find any other doxing or harassment. I didn't deliberately google things against KiwiFarms, but did read through threads. If you go on /pol/ on 4chan you will easily find harassment in multiple threads. When you do the same on KiwiFarms you don't. Maybe there is all sorts of far right propaganda on the site, but it is not in plain site.

I am quite willing to believe they are far right, but I haven't seen any evidence. The only harassment I saw was against the far right.


The company name that runs the entire setup was until recently literally called Final Solutions LLC they aren’t subtle about any of this.


I assume you are trying to say they are Nazis? The Nazis used the phrase Final Solution (The Final Solution to the Jewish Question) with no s at the end. I don't think you can draw the conclusion that they are Nazis when the name isn't even the same phrase the Nazis used. If this company was trying to copy the Nazis why didn't they name it properly?

Also, there are multiple companies called Final Solutions LLC in the US, do you think they are all Nazis or do you think it could literally just be a name?

Your username starts with an 'm'. Hitler's book Mein Kampf starts with an m as well. Does that mean you were trying to copy the Nazis?


You are exactly the kind of moron I suspected you were multiple posts ago who is just here to be antagonistic for the sake of it.

But for what it’s worth they changed it to 1776 Solutions after which was yet another right wing reference.


You are moving the goal posts. You were claiming they were far right. Now you are just saying right wing. Unless you think everybody on the right is far right?


Do you remember a whole one comment ago where we were talking about final solutions LLC and you tried to make that ridiculous argument that nobody could possibly ever know for sure that they are far right because it had an ‘s’ in there and that Nazis will never attempt to speak in anything other than plain language.

Nobody moved any goal posts here, you just seem to be hell bent on trying to provide cover for some of the shittest people on the internet and trying to pretend you are some “neutral third party”.


I just don't like to accuse people of being Nazis with only circumstantial evidence. Maybe you don't mind, but I do. If you think that is providing cover then this conversation is a waste.


Wait, that /only/ works on MacOS?


Your website design is delightful!


I made the exact same move for the same reasons a few weeks ago. The UI is a little... dense, but plenty featureful and made working with required oauth for my school Outlook email pretty easy.


IRC bot! You just need to pull in a lua sockets library to get going.


I have been meaning to automate my spamming of random channels, doing it manually is a PITA. I like to keep things more innane and less troll/toxic though, so I might need to do some work with GPT-3 on the actual content. At least once I find a good corpus of low-effort shit posts that aren't also toxic.
