How can anyone run a Plex server on their work machine? And why doesn’t their IT dept monitor their devices?

I see episodes for all seasons on Streamio Android. For season 1 and 2, there are no streams though

Off topic question, I’m trying to learn about seedboxes: Do you have to configure your own VPN with your current seed box or is it not necessary?

I share your experience but unfortunately don’t have answers

That seems as a weird decision by Firefox considering their relatively privacy focused image.

Streamio with Torrentio add on + a Debrid service is all you need.

Why would the app installation be slow? Do they create sandbox for each app?

Yup, you have a good point with the third party advertisers not following GDPR. And I agree that the privacy policy should be as transparent as possible.

Yep, I just wish atleast the major instances outline this clearly to the users. Fediverse definitely has its merits that outweigh these pitfalls. Everyone should still be aware of this in as transparent way as possible

It is reasonable because I can have a trust basis with my followers who are my friends/family. If a malicious instance host can just use a plugin to view follower only post, that’s not going to be expected by an average user. That’s why I posted in YSK.

Yes, but there is a reasonable assumption that your pictures will only be viewed by your followers on Instagram. I can’t see myself switching to PixelFed. I’ve completely switched from Reddit and Twitter to Mastodon, Lemmy, as I don’t tend to share my personal information there anyways.

There are laws that you can enforce by suing them. It’s probably not going to be the case here

Are there any major daily driver features from Android missing here? Also are the updates usually stable?

Ofcourse, you can dox yourself in other text based sites like Twitter, Reddit.

But, ActivityPub has other applications like PixelFed. If someone doesn’t know about these privacy implications there private pictures can be exposed to even malicious accounts/instances that are not on theit followers list. It’s best for everyone to be aware of what they are getting into here.

It’s usually the water that makes people sick. When people from third world countries move to first world countries and live there for a couple of years, they will get sick too when they revisit their home country.

I understand that encryption will not be present but the software should atleast not allow the admins to view the private pictures or messages by default as part of admin tools.

I wouldn’t use this until I’m assured of that as posting pictures can lead to being doxxed or they can be found in some unpleasant places on the internet if the admin is not trustworthy

Is the instance admin able to view posts/messages of private accounts like they can do on Lemmy?

Yeah, that’s what I found too. I was hoping to find a page that shows users of that instance. That way I can read up the bios of any interesting bots.

How to find the available bots and their instructions on the botsin.space?
