  • Quite a lot of cryptography detail in their blog post, not all of which do I understand. Curious to find out what the community thinks of this …

    For instance:

    We’ve re-built the Tuta cryptographic protocol from the ground up and are now upgrading our encryption using quantum-resistant algorithms together with conventional algorithms (Kyber in combination with AES 256 and ECDH x25519 in a hybrid protocol) for our asymmetric public key encryption of emails

    I know Bruce Schneier says rolling your own Crypto is hard and most will get it wrong. So is it concerning that they made their own encryption protocol?










  • Yeah, I want to say, Bandcamp was sold to a new company last year but so far, it’s pretty much the same as before. I can see someome saying they have some beef with them, but I still use them fairly often, to support lesser known bands when I can. And they schedule special Friday events where they don’t collect any fees - all music sold on those days goes straight to the artists. Sooo much better than the evil Spotify.

    I would love to know of a good alternative to Bandcamp, but don’t rule it out entirely, IMO.
