  • I currently have a love hate relationship with it, but that’s mostly because of issues outside of paperless. I had been uploading to my server automatically with Nextcloud, and processing the files with paperless as they came in. Next thing I know, all the files are gone and none of the documents are available in paperless any longer, just the OCR translations that… leave something to be desired sometimes.

    I’ve scrapped the whole thing in the short term, and will likely try again in the long term. Just need to find the time.










  • I honestly dont see how mail can be reliably self hosted, and be accepted by the majority of filters. Especially as we move farther and farther into the world of limited IPv4 availability.

    All it takes is for your IP to be listed as spam, and a large number of companies out there are going to put you in junk, or worse drop you completely.

    Add on top of that the issue of reliability, and I just can’t fathom hosting myself. It makes much more sense to me for email to be one of the only things you do third party.


  • You’re still not understanding what is being talked about.

    Here is the situation being talked about:

    • You open TikTok on your phone
    • There is a link to a site within the app
    • You open the site, it opens inside the TikTok app
    • You put information into the site
    • TikTok now has that information

    At no point is anyone claiming it’s unavoidable, or spread on countless websites. It’s the app that’s the issue, it’s the app that doing the keylogging.




  • This has nothing to do with being logged into TikTok. This is a link within the TikTok app keylogging credentials as they are entered.

    And for the record, “logged in” isn’t the same as “identified”. Browser and device fingerprinting is very much a thing, and is quite scary in how well it works.

    If you don’t think TikTok has CDNs (or that CDNs are used primarily for tracking?), it makes it clear you don’t actually know what you’re talking about.

    It’s clear you either don’t know, or are being disingenuous about, the dangers of a bad actor in current technology. Especially when most of your argument is “you don’t even need to log in, it’s just so safe!”

    Cross domain policies are enforced by the browser. If you’re using a third party app, guess what you’re using as a browser.

    Want an easy example of this? Userscrips on Firefox. Install GreaseMonkey, and you can run whatever the hell you want on any webpage. Keylogging, mouse movements, clicks and navigations. Not hard, and impossible to really stop from the site itself, because no matter what you tell the browser to do, you essentially have to just hope the browser follows through.
