Email with PGP is very far from secure. No forward secrecy (one mistake and the entire thread history is revealed) and metadata is unencrypted.
Here’s a post discussing that: https://feddit.de/post/781919
I’m sure it’s fine code, I just can’t imagine it’ll ever be as efficient as Rust.
Why not both? I think they see this as an opportunity to kill two birds with one stone.
Really hard to trust Meta. They could help advance ActivityPub. Or maybe they go full Microsoft Embrace Extend Extinguish and damage the Fediverse. Or it could be benign. Look at XMPP where it was adopted by big companies but they eventually stopped federating and down the line replaced it with their own proprietary protocols.
kbin looks good but I can’t get over the fact that its backend is written in PHP. In the long run, lemmy’s Rust backend will probably be way more resource efficient and thus better for hosters. We’ll have to see though, since tech stacks aren’t the most important thing. But for me a Rust backend is a huge plus.
It’s really fun but still kinda rough around the edges. I wish there other games like this that are fully fleshed out and complete.
