______mail.com, just come up with something available to fill the blank.

Then, use unique addresses for all services you sign up for, and they look like individual accounts created at some mail service.

You can even make a boilerplate static site at the domain to look like a genuine mail service.

Why not Actual Budget, which is also self-hosted, open-source bucket budgeting based off YNAB, however it appears to be a lot more mature.

They also transparently run the project on Open Collective which I like: https://opencollective.com/actual

🙄 Sounds a lot like this classic example where residents complained about headaches, rashes, nausea, tinnitus, etc from a cell tower, only for it to be revealed that it was not powered up:

https://mybroadband.co.za/...

"Headaches, nausea, tinnitus, dry burning itchy skins, gastric imbalances and totally disrupted sleep patterns..."

At the meeting Van Zyl agreed to turn off the tower with immediate effect to assess whether the health problems described by some of the residents subsided. What Craigavon residents were unaware of is that the tower had already been switched off in early October – six weeks before the November meeting where residents confirmed the continued ailments they experienced.

Luckily for you this already exists, and it's effectively SteamOS:

You can even put this on a Steam Deck as a drop-in replacement.

Looks like a contributor was in a sanctioned region?

Not according to that thread - it looks like they don't yet know what caused it:

https://mastodon.social/...

No any details from GitHub yet. One contributor mentioned a temporary visit to disputed areas a long time ago — GitHub probably just flagged the account, and their bots messed up after that.

Who out there is actually saying “children shouldn’t be fed”, for example? Fucking nobody, lol.

I'm not even American and I know that plenty of people are saying this 🙄

Here's one example:

Congress ended the free-lunch-for-all program in June

Here's another example:

The Republican Study Committee (of which some three-quarters of House Republicans are members) on Wednesday released its desired 2024 budget, in which the party boldly declares its priority to eliminate the Community Eligibility Provision, or CEP, from the School Lunch Program. Why? Because “CEP allows certain schools to provide free school lunches regardless of the individual eligibility of each student.”

Children who had access to food now don't have the same access, thus "children shouldn't be fed".

Fucking nobody, lol.

You're fucking callous.

The standalone Google Pay app will be shut down.

Google Wallet (which is almost certainly what you're using) will still be functioning as normal.

I got your exact same answer, but then I tried again prefacing the question with:

Can you help me with a puzzle?

This changed the answer drastically:

Great! Let's solve this river crossing puzzle step by step. The key is to find a sequence of actions that gets the man and the goat safely across the river without leaving the goat unattended with something it might eat.

Given:

  • A man and a goat are on one side of a river.
  • They have a boat.

Step-by-step solution:

  1. The man takes the goat in the boat and crosses the river.
  2. The man leaves the goat on the other side of the river and returns alone in the boat.
  3. The man gets out of the boat on the original side of the river.
  4. The man gets back into the boat alone and crosses the river again.
  5. The man and the goat are now together on the other side of the river.

Therefore, the man and the goat have successfully crossed the river using the boat, without leaving the goat unattended on either side of the river.

You neglected to quote the most relevant part of the article which answers your own question regarding Monero:

Proton Wallet is in a strange position. I've spoken to a few sources who suggest that privacy features like CoinJoin, which can mix Bitcoin in order to better anonymize transactions, were intended to be included at launch. The crackdown on the ill-fated Samouri Wallet project by U.S. authorities last April certainly put a damper on privacy in the Bitcoin space, and likely made Proton wary of introducing such features to the public.

Proton suggests this themselves, stating on their website:

"Coinjoin is considered the best solution for improving blockchain privacy. It works by mixing your BTC with other users’ BTC in a collaborative self-custodial transaction where you get back the same amount of BTC that you put in but on a different address that cannot be easily linked to your previous address. However, in 2024, in what many consider to be a regulatory overreach and attack on privacy, some of these Coinjoin services have been declared illegal in the US and EU. The future of financial privacy may therefore be decided by ongoing litigation in the next decade and privacy advocates should support these efforts."

This situation likely soured Proton on other privacy-friendly cryptocurrencies like Monero as well. I get it, financial privacy is an extremely challenging task for any company to take on. We can't expect Proton to take on the risk of offering a completely anonymous payment service in the current legal climate, but it begs the question: why enter the financial space at all?

While not particularly revolutionary, the fact that they provide a unique HD wallet address every time you receive funds through your same email address does provide additional privacy as no one can see your previous transactions. Even when those are rolled up together later it does make it harder to associate an exact total balance with you. If you used your wallet for smaller spending rather than making a single large send from it, that makes it harder still.

Sure, I would have liked them to add Monero too, but it gets thorny when you're a regulated company dealing with that.

You're replying to my comment about Actual Budget, the very open source budgeting solution?

If you click the link to the article about him saying it failed, he says:

Asked if the U.K. would have been better off remaining in the EU Farage insisted he didn’t “think that for a moment.”

So I think he's sticking to his guns that leaving was better than staying. The situation sucks for everyone in the UK :(

Add a requirement that every comment must perform a small CPU-costly proof-of-work. It's a negligible impact for an individual user, but a significant impact for a hosted bot creating a lot of comments.

Even better if you make the PoW performing some bitcoin hashes, because it can then benefit the Lemmy instance owner which can offset server costs.
