Thanks for the list! Although most of the time it’s advised to not use multiple adblocker in tandem, because they might conflict with each other and get detected by the website. For example, uBlock origin has, in its settings, an option to disable JavaScript and in the filter list, an option to block cookie banners “Cookie notices”. But if all of these work for you that’s great!

I have no idea about this, but as of now anyone can register.

For reference, CSAM is Belgium’s government portal and a system of login, as far as I know, so I assume it would be used to check if someone is a minor at the time of registration

Child safety is important but implementing this would kind of defeat the purpose of a privacy focused app.

I agree that just gatekeeping children and therefore verifying everyone with a government platform, but then it raises the question on how to improve child safety on an app that’s self-hostable with not even user IDs to identify the users?

I don’t have an answer to that, but I don’t like just saying “This solution is bad”, I always try to add “So try this instead, because XXX”

The most privacy focused messaging app I know is SimpleX Chat, it has no user IDs, is FOSS, e2e encrypted with an option to use TOR, give it a try!

@[email protected] Hey, I’m late but I may have found something you like! It’s not for S/MIME but for OpenPGP keys, another method of email signing and encryption which does not require the certification by an authority (Actalis)

It’s a website to list all OpenPGP public keys, and I know thunderbird (for desktop at least) automatically looks there whenever you write an email to an address to see if it has a public key.

As far as I understand, there are some advantages and disadvantages on OpenPGP, mainly :

• Actalis generates your private key, so if you follow the S/MIME tutorial they’ll be able to decrypt your messages. With OpenPGP it’s done locally on your computer so you don’t need to send your private key to anyone.
• However, there is no way to easily revocate an OpenPGP key, so if yours leak, you can’t just go on your Actalis dashboard and revocate it.

It’s up to you to pick a method based on your needs!

Maybe because your community only allowed Mandarin? There can also be a community-wide scope that only allow certain languages, so if the community you post in mandarin-speaking only, that’s why you might not have needed to select anything.

You’re very welcome!

Yes, it’s exactly that, I explained it in another reply

I also agree it should behave like that by default but I’m not really familiar with Lemmy’s front-end codebase to be able to do this myself, so I do what I can!

If you regularly post in multiple languages, you have to select them all in your user settings.

However, having multiple languages selected will always display the same language list in the same order, even if you don’t post in that language.

For example, I post mostly in french but sometimes in english as well. Well, the lemmy front-end always puts english at the start of the list so every time I post in french, I need to re-select it which is kind of annoying. This add-on does it for you!

I don’t think it’s possible to do that, but I have no experience on this since I don’t use my own email server so I could very well be wrong.

So as I understand :

1. Actalis is a trusted authority among others but is the only one to issue free S/MIME certificates that I found. You need to use a trusted authority to make the signature, or else your email client will say “Cannot verify signature authenticity” and show a red badge. This explains it better
2. When you sign your email, you include your public key in the signature. So just sign every email (usually an option in your client) to let anyone you email have your public key. I don’t really understand why you would need to change stuff in the email server.
