As a Chinese person I can confirm. Monero is the way.
Stablecoins frequently get frozen by Tether and Circle for arbitrary reasons, as if an AI system is flagging
Why not just accept Monero? It acts more like cash. Do you
really want to leak every transaction you've ever done, every time you buy something?
Bitcoin is surveillance capitalism dream!
Monero is even cheaper and more useful as cadh because it's private. Anyone can see Bitcoin history and where the user got their coins.
You really never know with these people
Catching a few criminals is not worth taking everyone's privacy by force.
I wonder if this is because the chips are meaningfully better or if there's an ulterior motive
I make fun of all races, religions, and ethnicities equally. No hate, just memes.
They just give the LLM a free flight to the jhosen peoples land funded by Kars4Kids and out comes a compliant LLM!
It absolutely was about Israel. Stop lying.
soon
https://nonogra.ph will get a fully open-source archiver function and be capable of advanced paywall bypassing techniques, which will also be open source
Quick! Release UFO so they forget about the trafficking!
What an awful UI.
- Microsoft Teams icons. Really???
- Padding everywhere
- Feels like a machine control panel, not a chat app
- Double sidebars? Why?
This feels like a uTox clone. Not good in 2026. Even Teams has a significantly better interface.
Adding friends, shopping, logging in on PC, binding accounts for after-the-fact SSO, etc..
This is all done with QR codes here.
I took a look at it and am considering copying some of the features I like to implement into Nonograph.
Funnily enough, I was sitting about 30 meters up in an old church bell tower late at night and wanted something that made the "Have Idea > Write Idea > Publish Idea" workflow super simple but also better than a pastebin and I've always hated how underscores in markdown result in italicized text, not underscored text.
Yes every social media platform solves the workflow problems, but I don't want everything I write tied to a central identity; I want to be able to share single thoughts as links with people.
Nonograph doesn't have any tracking. Everything coming into the host is through two hops of reverse proxies or Tor before the request reaches me. That's also why its 300ms to load a plain html page until I find a better solution to hide the server location. The most tracking I'm doing is looking at `top` to make sure the resource usage is low. Avg. 3% CPU, 210mb MEM.
I think part of the problem is there's too much collectivism, which makes dissent harder to do and deal with. This collectivism and excessive capitalism means Guy A sees Guy B making money by taking away features and charging for them, so Guy A does the same thing... on a massive scale. Then there's the people who come into open-source with the expectation of profit, get depressed when there is none, then feel vindicated when they sell out to VC or enshittify their projects and see more returns than their FOSS stuff.
Also, I like your comment so much I immortalized it in a Nonograph: https://nonogra.ph/na-ymlu-05-06-2026
Thanks for the long read!
It's from October 2025, lots of issues have been fixed since then. At least you're more informed and can decide whether you'd like to use it accordingly. Compare that to most projects which are complete unknowns.
Not at all. As a KDE Plasma user, I love and donate to open source.
I'm arguing that the current climate of "vibe code a startup a day" is unsustainable, terrible, and should NOT be the thing people strive for. Instead of appeasing VC firms, that energy can be better spent on passion projects or contributing to other open-source projects like KDE / Linux / GrapheneOS / etc..
The VPS costs a few dollars and is holding up just fine against roughly 11k proxied requests per minute. 0.19% CPU and 148mb MEM usage.
A RasPi would be an upgrade!
Also, Nonograph doesn't store or serve any media, just html and markdown.
> Sure, make money from software. I did. But when you have enough and it's time to give back, open source it.
This is where I'm at. I'm one of the few Gen-Z with enough to live on comfortably + safety net, so I give back.
Edit: took a look, neat stuff you're doing!
Well then I better up my OPSEC
