If it was planned, is it really an outage?

Bad Social Network Choice

Which is exactly why you can disable it with a few key presses at any time instead of permanently compromising your security..

Except that with mastodon your home server doesn’t bind you if you later decide to move on to another instance or even self-host. Migration is painless and you don’t lose any contacts either. That alone takes a lot of stress out of picking where to put your account initially.

Good job recovering but please don’t tell me you’ve been running both databases from the same storage RAID?

🙏

I’m not talking about E2EE - I read your statement on that. I’m talking about basic data security on-storage. Things like “data is encrypted inside our databases, Capacities can decrypt it based on a users login credentials or similar information only we and the user know”.

There's also the topic of "we have no interest to access your data [even though we technically could]" - not sure if that is meant to reassure anyone?

Policy is all nice and well but how is it enforced?

What if there's a data breach - those people surely don't abide by policy?

.. no protection at all from any unauthorised use by a third party that somehow got access to the running system (unless Capacities encrypts the data it writes to disc). An encrypted disc is only secure at rest / while unmounted.

Could you elaborate on the means of encryption employed?

And at the time you’re 80 you can claim all of those to be “vintage” and it’ll be super hip!

I always wonder how these stats are calculated..

Using “anyone that ever played” feels like a completely wrong way. You’d need some form of “players in the past 30 days” or “people that finished the game” or similar.
