> But from watching that statement I do both agree with him and believe he is being honest in that specific case. Yes, and the linked paper shows that this is a reflection of your existing bias about him, and not…
I see nothing combative here, and nobody is forcing you to write replies you don’t want to. I disagree that simply making a naked claim is ‘reasoning’. “The moon is made of cheese.” is a statement, but isn’t reasoning.…
More likely, the EU will demand that alternative stores be regulated and that override controls exist, precisely so that they can outlaw E2EE and block other apps they want to restrict. The EU isn’t doing any of this to…
> What makes a business have government approval is two things I see no evidence that you have the expertise to make this claim. It’s just an opinion you are stating as fact. > We all have the ability to judge tonality…
Actually you didn't provide any reasoning. You just made a statement without any supporting logic.
> No. He can keep silent and still have access to the market. Can he? Are you an expert on what it takes to gain the Chinese government's approval, or the continuing goodwill needed for massive capital projects?
> If Europe demands that SMS apps have a backdoor (fancy that), Apple users would have options that aren't provided by Apple. This makes no sense. If Europe makes rules about backdoors or outlawing E2E, they will apply…
Have you considered that they might have a reason for that? You act as if control has no value to their mission. Controlling the platform allows them to continue to evolve it while maintaining the convenient and…

Then is seems like you do understand why Signal isn’t as open as you’d like.
> To become something attainable in practice we would have to start supporting the companies that are focused on the more important things first until they are mature enough to be able to dedicate time and resources to…
> "someone else in the OSS space to put in the work" to make it as convenient as the leading closed alternatives, which is a fool's errand. I don’t think I got you wrong at all - you’ve just reiterated that it isn’t as…
With all due respect, it seems that you have conceded that a convenient, spam free, open option not only doesn’t exist in practice, but can’t in principle. That’s more than even I believe. I just think nobody in the OSS…
> They should have been drafting absurd standards centered around their own servers, and taunting Google into adopting it. It's hard to imaging you sincerely think this would have been better. It seems like you want…
> open it up to let other people run their own servers instead of trying to control everything. If you know of a good open architecture that solves the problems of spam and impersonation while maintaining the…
The British people who did that are dead now.
Good point about the co-worker reading HN. Honestly, if the poster is serious about being a professional manager and wants good advice on this, they should reach out to a professional organization that provides…
That seems absurdly onerous for indie devs. I hope Apple doesn’t do anything as extreme.
You need to give more info about what the actual problems are. Without knowing that, people can only offer advice based on stereotypes, which are often innaccurate.
I do.
