I'm getting reports from Russian users that https://pixelfed.social is unavailable, we are not blocking access on our side, is there anyone that can verify it works from Russia?
I don't believe AR filters are harmful, but a few people in my replies do.
You can record a video with the new Loops Camera, using an AR filter, then save it to your camera roll and never upload it to Loops, allowing you to share it with anyone.
This isn't that different from editing a photo in my opinion, what do you think?
@dansup I think its a good feature, and the fact you can use it without uploading is even better. I dont know why some people dont like that, i dont see any harm
We no longer have any active servers in France and are continuing the process of leaving OVH. We'll be rotating our TLS keys and Let's Encrypt account keys pinned via accounturi. DNSSEC keys may also be rotated. Our backups are encrypted and can remain on OVH for now.
@GrapheneOS is being threatened by French authorities for refusing to add backdoors and they're dealing with coordinated attacks in French media right now. They're pulling out of France entirely, moving all their servers, and fighting off a wave of bullshit one-sided reporting that makes them look like they're helping criminals.
They need us to fight back. Support them however you can, whether that's a dollar, sharing their story, pushing back on the garbage news coverage when you see it, or just telling someone you know about what's happening. All of it matters because they're drowning in attacks from governments and media and bad actors who want them gone.
This is the only Android OS that actually makes me feel like privacy isn't just marketing. They fight for us now they need us to fight for them.
The EU is allowing this, governments think they can just threaten developers into compliance, and if we stay quiet we're letting it happen. Show up for them in whatever way you're able to.

@watchfulcitizen When i first saw Olvid 1yr ago, i didnt trust it cause its made in France, and they could be pressured to track users, now i dont regret using #session when i see whats happening..
