White House embraces Abrego Garcia fight
Brett Samuels, Staff writer - The Hill
_Stephan: The United States has come to the abyss of dictatorship. In the next three weeks we are going to learn whether Donald Trump must follow the laws as the courts decide or whether Donald Trump now defines the laws. Whether we remain a democracy or become a formal dictatorship. When Hitler took power in 1933, 53 days after coming into power he started opening concentration camps. The first one wa … ⌘ Read more

@prologic @bender @eapl.me I think opening another file is a bad idea because it adds complexity to the clients, breaks the single feed and I think keeping legacy clients will be more complex to add new features in the future. A modern approach is important.
I'll be honest, I'm a bit tired of the fight around the direct message. Perhaps, we can remove it as an extension and use the alternative @prologic . My suggestion apparently doesn't like to the community. I have no problem with remove it.

@eapl.me@eapl.me This is one of my concerns too. The moment you post publicly ciphertext, you open yourself up for future attacks on the ciphertext, which you really want to avoid if you can. If you have a read of the Salty.im Spec you’ll note we went to great lengths to protect the user’s privacy as well as their identity and make it incredibly hard to guess at inboxes. It’s still a WIP, but I’d love to see it progressed even further – I truly feel strongly about a purely decentralised messaging ecosystem 👌
