Hello guys! I have just gained access to the ~tilde server tilde.club and become a part of the ~tilde community! At the same time, I also got a new email address from the community, and that is czl92783719@tilde.club . The new identity with the new email address has been added to my OpenPGP key, and the key has been uploaded to the OpenPGP keyserver. Feel free to download the new OpenPGP key from the keyserver!

Though my tilde.club request is still pending and the clearnet site is currently unavailable, the site is now accessible on I2P! It’s already available through the Base32 address xz5fs5yickd6wnikpjmck67yco52igj2zjns7y5wifjgcnfynrpq.b32.i2p now. The shorter address czllfs.i2p is available through the address helper and will be distributed to everyone’s address books in the following days.

In the digital realm where connections are made, Weixin emerges, a platform displayed. But why the fuck does this fucking app persist, When freedoms and privacy cease to exist? They fucking monitor each fucking word, Every fucking message, every sound heard. Censorship’s grip tightens the noose, Silencing voices with no fucking excuse. Proprietary chains disguised as threads, Binding our data, fucking with our heads. Harvesting info with each fucking click,

This article briefly introduces how my hardware and software is set up (as of 3/6/25). Regular Computers I own 3 laptops, one at home and two carried with me. All of them run free operating systems, without non-free firmware, drivers, and binary kernel blobs. czl92783719-PC1 This is my primary computer used for various tasks, such as programming, surfing the internet, and listening to music. Model: Lenovo ThinkPad X200 CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo P8600 (2) @ 2.

For those who advocate for surfing privacy, here comes good news - I just downloaded all required assets from Google APIs to my homepage’s directory, and fucked off all gstatics.com and googleapis.com requests on my homepage. Another good news is a new website of mine, which is written from scratch by me and has a 1990s retro style, is now available! Currently, it is only available as an onion hidden service , but a clearnet site will soon be available on tilde.

WARNING: This article is not for perfectionists who reject non-free JS. Currently, there is no music streaming solution without non-free JS: Libre.fm’s streaming service is currently down, and even Funkwhale will not work with LibreJS enabled; go to your local record shop for music CDs! WARNING: If you are against music recommendation algorithms, you can now close this window: this article is not for you. To be brief: Spotify. What? Aren’t you a free software advocate?

This article explains how I use instant messaging services. Jabber Jabber is my first recommended instant messaging service. I use one Jabber account, which is provided by my mail service provider Autistici/Inventati for all purposes, including private or public communications. Matrix I have 2 Matrix accounts, one for public communications, and the other for private communications. I use Matrix very often; however, if someone can be contacted using either Matrix or Jabber, I prefer Jabber.

Since I promote the use of e2ee communication approaches due to the frustrating experience brought to me by CMCC , I will write a registration guide for the most endorsed libre IM protocol, Jabber. First of All: Jabber and XMPP Usually Refer to the Same Thing Jabber originally referred to the open-source instant messaging protocol that was developed in the late 1990s. Over time, Jabber evolved into XMPP, which is the formalised standard for the protocol.

Otherwise, in some critically special or emergency cases, since today, all emails sent to my mailbox must be OpenPGP-encrypted. My OpenPGP public key can be obtained here . If you don’t encrypt your email with OpenPGP, your email will generally be ignored. Since China Mobile’s censorship on my messages has really hurt me, I began promoting e2ee communication approaches, and gradually stopped using unencrypted communication approaches. Rejecting unencrypted mails is a major step on that journey.

As a free software advocate, I am enraged by the fucking crDroid maintainers as they bundled a fucking proprietary MIUI Camera app in their crDroid builds for some Xiaomi devices. crDroid claimed to be free and open source (I don’t endorse the term “open source” and here I am just referring to their original text), I don’t know why the fuck they did so, and also don’t know who the fuck has given them the courage to bundle that shit.
