That looks like a great tool, but only seems to support bookmark sync currently? Not quite a drop in replacement for Firefox sync yet.

There are plenty of other interesting parts of the world to visit outside of Europe or the US.

Australia as an example has amazing national parks and wildlife. The indigenous culture goes back longer than European history, just a pity that it has been mostly wiped out.

Requiring evidence for any religious claims that are made is not "opposing religion". When religious claims can be proven using the scientific method, then opposing religion in science will be unscientific.

Currently the best explanation for evolution does not include anything religious.

Fair call. Other people have commented on issues with matrix so I won't dilute the thread by repeating that. I mentioned session as an alternative because it meet the criteria set for the poster by being decentralised. It's also E2EE and routes messages via onion so encourages anonymity.

There are a heap of comparisons available on the different encrypted messaging apps, but they all put different weight on various features which can skew perspectives. Here's one for consideration:

Personally I use signal, matrix and session, and think they all satisfy the requirements for my threat model.

If it's Australian, don't expect strong privacy. But then again, I wouldn't expect that from a US based email provider either.

Thank you for sharing that one. I had never heard of plurality before outside Hollywood, learnt something new today. So fascinating!

You may want to try Zen Browser - a Firefox fork that includes a chrome-like multi-profile UI.

Proton passkeys are stored in a password manager, which he specifically calls out.

If you have a password managed and know how to use it, you're already a lot less susceptible to the problem that passkeys are trying to solve.

Personally, I think passkeys are great for tech-savvy users, but I wouldn't dream of recommending them to non tech-savvy people. Password managers are still used by the minority, that needs to be fixed before passkeys are useful.

I don't think there is anything "militant atheist" in the post you replied to.

I also consider myself a secular humanist, but would never describe myself as religious.

I think that normalising not having a religion would help to bring tolerance for people who have differing opinions, while calling secular humanist a religious view may reinforce a bias in some people that "you can't be good without religion".

I strongly disagree. Atheism is explicit lack of faith.

For all practical purposes, an atheist thinks that without evidence, it's safe to assume that there's no god or gods.

Would you say that you're genuinely completely agnostic in relation to every single religion that has ever existed, even the joke religions (like the flying spaghetti monster, etc)?
