🎉 I'm really excited to announce Serenity Notes 🥳
It's an end-to-end encrypted collaborative notes app allowing you to compose private & shared notes.
Think of a simple Google Docs, but end-to-end encrypted and offline-first.

Have a great #InternationalWomensDay all the women out there
Maybe some day society has evolved far enough that we wont need this yearly reminder that, yes, gender equality should absolutely be a thing. And that even if someone doesn't have the same equipment than you between their feet, you should still treat them with respect.

Today I gave #Nheko (0.8.1) another try (on #postmarketOS edge running on the #Librem5), and with two little tweaks in the apps settings (Touchscreen mode on and Show buttons in timeline off) it's the best #matrix client I ever used on #LinuxPhones.

Hey, I want to share something with you: Today my parents (70 and 65 years old) installed #FluffyChat on their iPhones for the first time. They have never used Matrix before but they were able to register an account on matrix.org and start a chat with me by entering my mxid with no advice! My mother said it was easy like in Telegram. 😍
So... this is a bit concerning

Didn't expect to open Hacker News and see the Prosody blog post on the front page 🙂
I really hope that the growing attention to the practices of big tech will push more people to discover #XMPP and other decentralized alternatives to those large platforms.
