I like the idea of matrix, but too much is unencrypted in element ( Profile pictures, reactions, nicknames) and no PFS in element is a bit of a dealbreaker. I know that the protocol supports PFS, so there has to be a client for it. Any clients that help with most of what I would like?
We have a bunch of instances hosting basically the same images multiple times. Using IPFS we could increase the availability of images for users with almost no cost to instances. I have heard rumors that pict-rs can’t be easily scaled up due file system based storage and would need a rewrite....

However, using this backlog: lemmy.ml/modlog?page=1&userId=2461030 , lemmy.ml/post/3809854 It says that the post couldn’t be...
I’m starting to see not as many newer mobiles in the Lineage OS list as I used to. The US is a lost cause with companies not allowing their bootloader to be unlocked, but even the Chinese companies like OPPO, Vivo, OnePlus etc don’t seem to have their recent devices on the Lineage OS supported list.
