@movq To be fair Twtxt has always been quite niche. Yarn picked up interest a bit a few years back, but then things died down a bit. I built `yarnd` for me, I continue to use it and improve it every now and again. But I guess the only uses we'll continue to see and that includes new folks are folks that give a shit about simple things, and see value in a slow, privacy focused medium? 🤔

At work, it is absolutely pointless to expect forward/backward to work. *Almost everything* breaks. Maybe some older Jira still works, but that’s about it.

(I clearly remember sitting in my car and waiting an eternity to get a fix, though. I’d regularly start the GPS device and then continue to load up my bags/stuff into the car because it took so long. 😅 Maybe it was just a shitty device, who knows …)

@movq Well I used to have a handheld GPS device, probably before I lost most of my sight. I didn't really feel that it took ~12m to get a fix, it was usually much faster. You _may_ just find that all this A-GPS thing is all just bullshit anyway and just an excuse to collect and store your GPS location on some random web server that someone else owns 🤣

The GPS satellites transmit an almanac, a (coarse) list of all satellite positions:
https://www.e-education.psu.edu/geog862/node/1739
That’s apparently crucial for a low “time to first fix” and, as I understand it, that’s where A-GPS comes into play: Downloading this information from the satellites takes about 12.5 minutes, but downloading it via the internet (A-GPS) is much faster.
So the question is: How long is this data valid for? It’s a bit hard to find information on this … It looks like it’s valid for several *weeks*:
https://flysight.ca/wiki/index.php/Almanac_and_ephemeris
If true, it would mean the situation is much less dramatic than I thought. 😅 I go on a walk every couple of days and that gives the device more than enough time to download an updated almanac. So, I *guess* I should be fine without A-GPS *if* I regularly use (standard) GPS for an hour or so. 🤔
We’ll see. This might take a couple of months to find out. 😂

If Sam Altman really wanted "AI" to be in the hands of the people, he a) Should not have made deals with multiple devils that turned OpenAI into a proprietary company. b) Sold most of the company to Microsoft.

@movq People just don't ask these questions. It's really a serious privacy issue, and I don't see it brought up very often. Not even in privacy-minded circles. If you're using a proprietary operating system on any Internet-connected device, you need to assume that the vendor can see everything you do on it and maybe even what you do on other devices as well..

This is quite bizarre. Why are we accepting this? 🤔 I guess it just doesn’t matter to people when they use Google for everything anyway (mail, Google Drive, …) … 😒 Bah.
It’s extra “funny” in my case, because I run that Matrix server myself, so I assumed that data is only sent between that server and the clients. But no, of course not, lots of things still get shoved through Google and Apple. 😂😭 How silly.

Actually, it looks like notifications using Google's service *can* be encrypted end-to-end. I don't know if this is used much in practice or if you can tell if the notifications on *your* device are encrypted. There seems to be some conflicting information out there.
Even if the content is encrypted, though, you're still giving quite a bit of metadata to Google by using their notification service.

It looks like ntfy.sh can work either through the OS's notification service or by maintaining its own connection to the server in the background. For privacy, you definitely want to use "Instant Delivery" and self-host the server.

@movq I haven't done any app development, but I know notifications on phones are indeed dependent on cloud services run by the OS vendor which talk to servers run by the app vendor on your behalf. This is supposedly better on battery life, but it conveniently lets your OS vendor read all your notifications.
Mobile XMPP clients usually implement notifications using XEP-0537 and it goes like this:
```
Your XMPP server -> Client vendor's notification server -> Client OS notification server -> User's device
```
It's not end-to-end encrypted so servers will usually just send a dummy message through (You received a message from juliet@capulet.lit!) so you have to open the app to see the (hopefully) encrypted message.
It's a similar flow on both iOS and Android and I assume Matrix clients work the same way.
