Plural and not human, don't refer to us as human in any way, we aren't.

Never tell us what we're feeling, why we're doing something or what we are etc.

Bigots fuck off, you're being ignorant assholes.

Ask more questions, assume less.

    Yeah, we like Star Trek a lot and are well aware of that species/culture from Lower Decks, they talk in memes basically, right?

    It's okay, you can relax, we're not out to get you. We have enjoyed this conversation so far 🙂. If we don't understand something we'll ask or clarify. Please talk in ways you understand until you can understand more.

    Oh, that reminds us: https://pluralpedia.org/ hope that helps!

  • a broad collection of anti-government groups who evade taxes and make up their own fake legal systems.

    Hilarious, all legal systems are fake in so far as they're just made up procedures and words etc, they won't necessarily protect you or have any basis in material reality beyond being constructed.

    Yes, they can have actual impact, but let's not pretend they are part of nature or anything.

  • Word of advice: Please don't look to media for what it's like to be plural, the only one (we have seen) that came close was Moon Knight and even that was bad at the end. Most media about it is incorrect in that it paints us as dangerous killers etc. We're not, most people who are neurodivergent, including us are more likely to get hurt than to hurt others, indeed, a lot of the time plurality and some other neurodivergencies come from trauma, not always, but they do a lot of the time.

  • There's one voluntary hierarchy

    Jump

  • Yeah, sadly people often need time. But it's annoying they need it at our (us and people like us) expense.

    It can be either, however, for us it's like different entities who start controlling the body, thinking the thoughts etc, we all have our own dislikes, like etc, so we're definitely different . Sometimes one of us will be fronting and another will pop up and start talking to the other. Sometimes, we co-front where more than one of us is controlling the body or one is and the other is in the background observing and we can hear them but they don't have control of the body.

    Does that make sense?

  • Glad we could help and glad you have a good borther who helped you 🙂.

    If you want to know more about plurality we have more links should that help.

    Oh, well, you know how there's transgender, well some people also identify as other things too like otherkin, alterhuman/alterbeing, therian, or transspecies.

    For a long time we have not felt comfortable with the label "human", just like being transgender and being misgendered, being misspecied causes us a lot of dysphoria. We have quite a few friends offline and online like this too, so it's not just us, and it isn't mental illness that causes it (though even if it were it would still be valid/legitimate). It's just merely we don't feel much connection with humanity as a thing we are and are absolutely working towards both transgender and transspecies transition.

    Despite what the slippery slopers will tell you, it's not dangerous and doesn't harm anyone, indeed there's been many who have come before who have purused such things, and it has a long history, we aren't a danger to ourselves or others as long as we're respected for who and what we are then we're fine.

    Sadly a lot of lemmy cannot fathom anything outside of their worldview and has a baseline that says everyone is human and a singlet, so it's challenging sometimes, but we are what we are, their disapproval, cruetly, and mocking doesn't stop that.

    Hope that helps!

  • The latest version of that encryption adds features that are beyond what Signal does.

    Do you have a link that explains them in an easy to understand way as I'm very interested in what those are.

    And there is a method to cross-sign keys that makes verification quite easy, but it comes with other trade-offs.

    What are the trade-offs?

    Also, would be nice to have that in all clients.

    Of course if you have many servers there will be a variety of different ones. As I said there are trade-offs. Still better though than having only one single option that is under one of the worst possible jurisdictions.

    I'm still not jurisdiction matters if the encryption is good enough, but maybe. Do you have any recommendations for good servers?

    Edit: you don’t need to do that, there is TOFU for that, and that is entirely sufficient for larger groups where trust is necessarily limited anyways.

    I'm not sure if TOFU is in all clients, but yeah, I'm aware of it, still don't fully trust TOFU, but it's good enough, I suppose. Fair about big groups, I tend not to like those anyway, so I guess it doesn't matter.

    I think the only thing that XMPP is missing, like similar projects is easy to use, well encrypted group calls, or maybe even well encrypted one-to-one calls, I could be incorrect about that though.

  • We disagree it's exactly the same as it's not on by default for everything and it has been slightly weaker in previous versions of omemo.

    Also most XMPP clients do not keep up to date with the latest version of omemo, sadly.

    Also, yes, XMPP is a pain to use, especially when it comes to omemo, there is no easy way to verify, as comparing a long string of numbers is not easy or accessible.

    I doubt many servers have a transparency report, nor can they fight court orders, I would imagine.

    Edit: Trying to join XMPP groups with encryption can pretty much be forgotten too, as comparing the verifications strings for everybody in that group, especially in big groups, would take far too long.
