Well e2e encryption is never private for the entity contrilling the endpoint. Instagram could push an update which decrypts and uploads your past chat history. Of course they’d only do it for your benefit so you don’t lose any data /s
Since when did Instagram support E2E? I didn’t even know, lol.
I seriously get annoyed at the amount of work it takes to keep a PC running.
Can you elaborate more on that? In my experience unless you set up a complicated NAS or home server setup maintaining a personal computer doesn’t require much upkeep. I prefer it over a phone because of the physical keyboard and superior window / tab / organization options.
PS: Wrote this comment from my phone anyway 🥲

„we do this, because our ancestors did and because it‘s fun/ brings us joy“ is a completely valid reason however :)
I guess that only applies to paywalls that can also be bypassed by 12ft.io, right? I.e. paywalls that open themselves up for indexing by search engines like Bing or Google.
Yes, ideally you‘d want to have a few large communties on each instance and not all topics with a single userbase on one. This not only decreases the load but also prevents scenarios in which a single admin starts to capsule their instance with a large userbase away from the federation.
I really like the default active sorting keeping discussions in older threads alive for longer. The comment sorting also makes it easier to join discussions later on :)
Sounds like a good solution. To make the colors less invasive it could only activate once two different users with the same name comment in a single thread.
Just until someone starts vomiting in places other than the toilet. In many cases it‘s better to be invited than to be the host ^^

Definetly good advice! :) Thanks you for recommending discuss.tchncs.de
I think everyones experience is equally as valid. For your use case and needs a tablet+keyboard works perfectly fine.
I do think a lot of the PC annoyances you mentioned have improved drastically over the past decade. For example: I hear that back in the day getting a printer to work was stressful. Now (for me) it just works out of the box both on MacOS and Linux. Only Windows for work still has some driver problems in my case.
But the windows experience has probably become even worse since your last time on a PC anyway. I can‘t fathom why anyone would stick with Windows unless it is some very specific application or video game that doesn‘t work on other platforms.
