Hey @protonmail @protonprivacy !

First, thanks a lot for your responsiveness. It feels great to keep in touch with my favourite service providers 😁

I'm a Mail Plus user, considering Unlimited, to use VPN. Given the "conflict" with DNS settings when switching on a VPN, how do you see your ad-blockkbg capabilities versus, for example, #nextdns ?

I believe #nextdns might be more configurable, but overall protection level is probably equal to the one of #protonVPN ?

@helenslunch

They reply when they have something to say. They don't reply just for the case of replying.

I've received several replies from them.

Exactly, we're here reading and helping in any way we can.

Here?

[–] dazo@infosec.exchange -1 points 9 months ago (1 children)

@helenslunch

Yes. In fact, you can see their replies here, if you had bothered checking:

[–] helenslunch@feddit.nl 1 points 9 months ago (1 children)

That's not here on Lemmy. You would know that if you had bothered checking.

@helenslunch

You're the one who said "Here". And to me "Here" is on Mastodon.
Be precise in your questions if you want precise answers.

[–] helenslunch@feddit.nl 1 points 9 months ago (1 children)

"Here" is not Mastodon. You're posting to Lemmy. I don't need precise answers, just ones that aren't wrong.

[–] dazo@infosec.exchange 0 points 9 months ago (2 children)

@helenslunch

All this conversation is happening on Matodon in my case. I don't even know or care what Lemmy is.

[–] Nelizea@lemmy.world 2 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Also hi Daz, nice to meet you again :D

[–] Nelizea@lemmy.world 2 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Yea I am glad, even though you don't know what Lemmy is, we're able to interact, thats cool. Hope so see you more often around here from whichever frontend or service you access the information 😁

[–] dazo@infosec.exchange 2 points 9 months ago (1 children)

@Nelizea

Yes, I'll be hanging around _here_ πŸ˜β€‹

I'll contribute when something interesting appears in my streams.

[–] Nelizea@lemmy.world 2 points 9 months ago

Happy to hear that!

[–] alex_herrero@lemmy.world 1 points 9 months ago (1 children)

I've been waiting for you, Obi Wan...

[–] helenslunch@feddit.nl 1 points 9 months ago (1 children)

No it isn't. If you don't know what it is, consider educating yourself instead of confidently stating an incorrect position.

No it isn’t. If you don’t know what it is, consider educating yourself instead of confidently stating an incorrect position.

You really ought educating yourself more before posting such stuff please. The commenter you're answering to is using Mastodon, replying via Mastodon and we see the answers here. You can verify that fact yourself here:

https://infosec.exchange/@dazo/with_replies

We use lemmy and can read and answer straight into Mastodon. This is the beautfy of the federation and the ActivityPub protocol. It is possible to interact with eachother between different services.

In the following link as example, the Proton team answered from Mastodon and we can view the comment in lemmy:

https://lemmy.world/comment/6921263

Original answer in Mastodon:

https://mastodon.social/@protonmail/111801236319023002

It doesn't matter where the team answered into, fact is the teams answer can be visible here.

The commenter you're answering to is using Mastodon, replying via Mastodon and we see the answers here.

"Here"...on Lemmy. This community is on Lemmy. You are confused.

fact is the teams answer can be visible here.

I've already addressed this. I never said they can't. They CAN see it, but they DON'T reply here, as I stated several replies earlier.

[–] Nelizea@lemmy.world 2 points 9 months ago (1 children)

I am not confused at all. My quote literally shows otherwise, however this discussion is senseless. There's no here with federation and ActivityPub protocol. I am out of that discussion now.

[–] helenslunch@feddit.nl -1 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago)

My quote literally shows otherwise

Once again, your quote literally shows one of many replies on Mastodon. Not Lemmy.

Show me 3 replies to a post or comment in a Lemmy community and I will concede I was wrong.

They almost always reply on Mastodon and (as far as I can tell), NEVER on Lemmy. That's not a coincidence.

There's no here with federation and ActivityPub protocol.

Yes there is because the protocol is not flawless in its' interoperability.

[–] Nelizea@lemmy.world 2 points 9 months ago

Sometimes they do ;-) However I do think that is a question better asked for the community so people can share their experiences.
