Reminder! WLUG Meeting tomorrow! May 12th, 2022, 7PM Hudson Public Library.

by Tim Keller

Hey Everybody! Sorry for the late meeting reminder! Yes, we do have a meeting tomorrow at the Hudson Public Library! Time: 7PM I'm hoping to be there in person, but I may have to attend virtually. I'm floundering a bit on a topic at the moment, if someone has an idea, please let me know. Next month I'd like to get Dick to talk to about the photo editing software. Zori has also expressed an interest in talking about TrueNAS. TrueNAS Scale is also an interesting product as well. So this meeting might be an open topic meeting. Thanks, Tim. -- I am leery of the allegiances of any politician who refers to their constituents as "consumers".

Re: Signal Messenger App Update

by Joshua Stone

Absolutely! Flathub is my go-to for installing desktop applications. It's designed specifically to distribute applications in a distro-agnostic way, and it comes with a permissions system that lets you grant/remove permissions so an application doesn't have access to more resources than it should: https://flathub.org/apps/details/com.github.tchx84.Flatseal Flathub is quite transparent with how it builds packages, and in the case of the Signal flatpak it essentially unpacks the upstream .deb package and adds some modifications to make it work within the sandbox: https://github.com/flathub/org.signal.Signal/blob/master/org.signal.Signal.… https://flathub.org/builds/#/apps/org.signal.Signal If you're already running Debian/Ubuntu, then the .deb package will be fine, but for any other distribution installing Signal from flathub is almost always the best method. It's really no more trustworthy than any other Linux distribution where you have downstream maintainers package software for better integration. - Josh On Wed, May 4, 2022 at 2:16 PM The Hammer <hammerron(a)yahoo.com> wrote: > Do you think that the Flathub source is safe to trust? > > On Wednesday, May 4, 2022, 01:35:53 PM EDT, Joshua Stone via WLUG < > wlug(a)lists.wlug.org> wrote: > > > Glad to hear it's working out for you, Ron! > > I recommend installing the desktop client which will sync messages between > your desktop and phone: > > https://flathub.org/apps/details/org.signal.Signal > https://signal.org/download/ > > - Josh > > On Wed, May 4, 2022 at 12:10 PM THE HAMMER via WLUG <wlug(a)lists.wlug.org> > wrote: > > Thank all for the great info. > > I've started using it and so far, I am a happy camper. > > Ron > _______________________________________________ > WLUG mailing list -- wlug(a)lists.wlug.org > To unsubscribe send an email to wlug-leave(a)lists.wlug.org > Create Account: https://wlug.mailman3.com/accounts/signup/ > Change Settings: > https://wlug.mailman3.com/postorius/lists/wlug.lists.wlug.org/ > Web Forum/Archive: > https://wlug.mailman3.com/hyperkitty/list/wlug@lists.wlug.org/message/45KV5… > > _______________________________________________ > WLUG mailing list -- wlug(a)lists.wlug.org > To unsubscribe send an email to wlug-leave(a)lists.wlug.org > Create Account: https://wlug.mailman3.com/accounts/signup/ > Change Settings: > https://wlug.mailman3.com/postorius/lists/wlug.lists.wlug.org/ > Web Forum/Archive: > https://wlug.mailman3.com/hyperkitty/list/wlug@lists.wlug.org/message/QF662… >

Do you think that the Flathub source is safe to trust? On Wednesday, May 4, 2022, 01:35:53 PM EDT, Joshua Stone via WLUG <wlug(a)lists.wlug.org> wrote: Glad to hear it's working out for you, Ron!
