Being direct is not rude, in my opinion. I don't know why people need things so sugarcoated. Being direct, to me, is a sign of respect

It's an edited image, but you are darn right. Proper communication is great

Ahh, that is indeed a critical detail on the implementation not quite clear right away. To be honest I don't trust the end-to-end encryption most of these services offer. If I want perfect privacy, I'm sticking to self hosting stuff

ey there you go, you bothered to actually read. Your chats remain with your provider!

It's not like you were expecting privacy while sending your content through other people's platform, were you?

No, I actually read the current proposal. Maybe try that before regurgitating random stuff that matches your opinion

The proposal only does so under specific circumstances, which makes sense. Try to read more than three words before your respond

Reading it, it looks like it doesn't require invasive oversight as long as the chat apps and app stores have sufficient detection and such.

really, that's what such places already should have, considering how much profit they make off of our data

Do post some!

I'm not suggesting randomness or inconsistency, I'm saying generalizing is overkill. But you're right, "whatever works" might be taken too literal by some

You're absolutely right that depending on your autofill is not a good general approach either. Then again, you shouldn't be guessing at these either

I've worked with changing conventions in different teams. In the end people are not going to come up with some name and whether it's myOldThing or my_old_thing won't matter much. Usually I just follow whatever the team I'm working with prefers

I'll be checking that out

Some unit tests might have been lacking. But yea. I personally like to keep things simple, but a lot of tech companies seem to prefer quite the opposite sometimes
