  • "Sway the election and change the country" is a ridiculous sensationalist headline as if every Rep/Dem/Ind./activists/political group in the country isn't trying to do the same thing, regardless of their place on the spectrum.

    I'd be much more wary of the RNC and DNC than some rich guys who made their own group with a super-cool name.

    Until money is limited in the political game, nothing will ever really change. Hell, we still argue about things that happened a hundred years ago. We still go back and forth over the same issues to which we all could have found compromises.

    But being too busy saying "I'm right and you're wrong" is why America is rapidly falling behind.

    I just want people to see that every "side" does the same thing.

  • One Monero

    One Monero

    TLDR: Monero can be difficult to fully understand, but so was cash before you learned how to use it... ---------- Getmonero.org LocalMonero (We know) Monero.com Hardware Wallets Light Wallets Blockheights Seed phrases Mining Pools/Solo/P2P Monerujo Cake MyMonero Feather Double-spends Confirmations/times Nodes - Local, remote, onion/tor Monero.town r/Monero CEX vs DEX Swaps News and media coverage Monero Events Newsletters Guides The list goes on and on...

    I feel as if it is time that the community comes together, in whatever medium necessary, to create ONE, UNIFIED, authoritative resource location for all things Monero.

    There's too many fragmented communities, forums, too many websites with bad or even dangerous information, fake miners, schemes, well you get the point.

    I'm not saying any of the legit resources should go away, but there needs to be one repository for all the information and links that we as community members can all point a new user to, where they can learn everything there is to know all in one place.

    onemonero.com (Because 1 XMR always equals 1 XMR)

    Should include: Wallets - how they work, which ones are legitimate, differences and use cases. Hardware vs software, local vs web.

    Mining - how to's, software links with explanations, hashrate calc, benchmark sites (and expectation of reality)

    Transacting - Buying, selling, sending, receiving, how outputs combine, what are ring signatures, etc.

    Community Links: to any legit communities (Reddit, Lemmy, Matrix, IRC, and wherever someone can ask for legitimate help.

    We aren't doing ourselves any favors by staying in our own little corners.

    Oh, you want to get into XMR? Thirty people will tell you 90 different ways to get from A to B.

    Oh, hey, there's some Monero dudes on IRC, how do I get there?

    Q: Which wallet should I use? A: Depends on your use case, mobile, desktop, hardware, app, web, etc

    How do I restore a wallet?

    We see all these questions every week, and the answers are usually quite similar.

    If everyone in MoneroLand was aware of, and trusted one site that had as much information as could be collected, verified, and audited, we could all point to that place.

    I trust the comments will include links to popular Monero information sites. I always point folks to getmonero, but there are other places out there. -- Who runs the site? Ideally it would be those who are already recognized as XMR contributors, not paid YouTubers. Invite the wallet devs/owners, invite community mods (not just Rddt), invite the web designers. We don't have to dox them, but they should be recognizable in their respective communities. -- Where should it be hosted?

    This part I don't know enough about to make a recommendation. I'd assume there should be clearnet, onion, and definitely mirrors of some kind. Redundancy built in so if one server goes down, shut down, etc the info is still accessible. -- With the global pushback against Monero, and the worsening of legitimate search sites being poisoned by inaccurate AI results and sponsored links (ads), finding good information and help will become even harder.

    It kills me every time someone posts about how they lost all their funds because "I clicked on this Google search result which turned out to be a scam wallet" or something similar.

    Imagine how much XMR knowledge disappears if Reddit were to shut down.

    We can, and should, do better.

    Question - Android / GrOS certs

    So, this may be G-custom OS specific, or Android generally.

    I was looking through the security settings, and when going to Settings-Security-More-Encryption and Credentials, I see that there are a plethora of CA Root certs installed. I recognize some (Digicert, Comodo, etc), but there are a lot that are just numbers and letters, and some from Beijing China, etc.

    I don't recall ever installing ANY certs, so I suppose these are all preinstalled (they show under the System tab, not the User tab.)

    Can they be installed by regular apps?

    I disabled any that weren't recognizable like Amazon, Google, Digicert, and Comodo.

    Are these dozens of other Certs necessary, and are they safe to be on my device? Are they preinstalled with G-Custom OS, or did they somehow sneak into my system settings?

    I have too much to do a factory reset at this point and it would only be a last resort.

    I also have Mullvad, Proton, and a personal WG vps on my phone, would those add certs to the "storage"?

    I know I named brands in here but I'm not promoting anything, I don't want to break something making changes, that's all.

    Thanks in advance.

    Keep This Under Wraps For Now

    I want to know what was running through the mind of the first guy who thought up mummies. Some guy just came along and said "You know what we need? Dead bodies to last longer! C'mon, who's with me?”

    We might need them to still look good in case they DO reanimate, or maybe Picture Day in the afterlife?

    I wonder how much time it took from the proof of concept to the first successful mummification? Trial and error and such. And how did they quantify a success? Dig them up every year to check?

    Privacy / Browsers on Android

    Chromium (Cromite) - no sync of any kind. Otherwise, no complaints except the menu item bloat.

    FF Stable - no about:config, comes with a ton of things that need turned off.

    FF Beta/Nightly/Mull - has FFSync, but missing Chrome's rotate-to-fullscreen functionality.

    All Android Browsers - too many menu items.

    FF: Customize, What's New, Help, Addons should all be under Settings. Chromium also has full menu that mostly is never used. View Source on a mobile browser...really why?

    It doesnt make much sense to have a movable toolbar if you still have to use both hands to get to the bookmarks button/menu. I'd be happy with either an organized, uncluttered menu, or one where certain items could be hidden/removed from the main menu.

    Brave - I wish I could stick with them. Everything works and they have it all. Full non-Google sync, better video playback control, nicer UI, dual toolbars. I just can't with the way they operate, adding bad features and then saying oops every time.

    How do we get the perfect browser?

    In my mind, it looks like Cromite, has the internals of FF (gecko engine), FOSS, can rotate the phone into full screen video, with sync implemented. And of course all privacy settings setup like Mull.

    Anyone else spot this unicorn?

    Issues and Suggestions
    1. Tell people at the top of a Community that posting is only allowed by admins before someone types a wall if text only for it to be deleted.

    2. Failed posts should go back to the edit screen so that person can copy that text wall to try to post it somewhere else.

    Instance Size

    We talk about sending new users to smaller instances to spread the load. We don't want one instance becoming the centralized default.

    Add code to put in a hard cap on users, somewhere between 100-500k.

    OR

    A community Instance Owner Pact that each Instance would close registration at a specific number.

    Additionally, would it be beneficial for instance health to have an account pruning feature that would auto delete any account that has made no interaction (post/comment/upvote/etc) within maybe a year?

    App Refresh

    So, let's say I'm reading something in a community and then I have to switch to a different app. Upon reopening, Jerboa does not stay at that particular spot, instead going back to the home screen with the saved sort settings. Is this by design or is it just a me problem?
