What if they gave you the files, with an easy download button ( with rate limits on downloads per user to avoid mass abuse )? Then, Netflix is basically providing a debrid service, which many people who pirate already pay more than 5$ for. Your VPN for torrenting is likely more than 5$. It’s already trivially easy to rip a movie off a website ( even with DRM ), so this is not a real content control loss for them.
I use obsidian but I wish there was an open source notes platform that could do what I want:
I have tried so many notetaking tools and the closest I ever got was using xournalpp for PDF annotation and drawing, then writing plain markdown in helix / neovim, with a live markdown rendering pane on the side. Was just too clunky though.
IMO the signal matrix bridge solves this problem. It does not do video calls to my knowledge, but it does let me have all my signal messages on all my devices, with no limitations.
And it’s not even a compellingly better alternative than the other options. Gitlab, or gitea, or forgejo are all great.
Hackberrypi CM version looks great
I’m writing documentation in obsidian. I then expose it to the web so I can access from all my devices and share to others with quartz. Everything is markdown. It’s tunneled out of my network with cloudflare tunnels, which do handle SSL for me.
This is really cool! Do you know of any existing tools doing similar stuff to this ?
Activists should not be using email for activism at all. I agree on mullvad for the VPN. This video does a good job explaining the issues with email for people who need privacy from groups like governments : https://youtu.be/iH626CXyNtE
I also question recommending signal over one of the decentralized alternatives like matrix or simplex, though really that’s probably fine.
