📣 I give Fedora Silverblue a try as my daily driver. ✅ Why Silverblue?** * Immutable base system** → prevents tampering, easy rollback * OSTree updates** → atomic & reliable * Flatpak app model** → sandboxed apps with tight permissions * Wayland + SELinux** by default * No telemetry or corporate bloat** 🧱 My hardening steps:** * Enabled `firewalld` and blocked all but VPN traffic * Installed **Mullvad VPN** (via rpm-ostree) * Disabled unneeded services: `geoclue`, `bluetooth`, `cups` * Set Storage encryption * Browser: daily driver **LibreWolf**, **Mullvad Browser for sensitive browsing** * Disabled shell history & metadata leaks * Flatpak & system auto-updates via `systemd` timers * Optional: Enforced Flatpak overrides: ** `--nofilesystem=home` ** `--nosocket=x11`, `--nosocket=wayland`, `--unshare=network` ⚖️ **Pros:** * Strong base for privacy-focused workflows * Clean separation between apps & system * Good balance of security and usability * No Snap, no system bloat ❌ **Cons:** * Learning curve (rpm-ostree, Toolbox, Flatpak sandboxing) * some App compatibility issues (some software needs workarounds) * Fedora Silverblue is less widely adopted 💡Silverblue is a powerful middle ground. Immutable, auditable, and increasingly privacy-friendly. Whats is you take on fedora silverblue? Do you apply additional hardening measures (e.g. app sandboxing, flatpak overrides, systemd tricks, firewall setups, TPM or FDE, etc.)?

📣 Nostr needs real Linux clients – with broader community support Nostr is a free and open protocol, built on decentralization and censorship resistance. But where are the serious, native Linux clients? Sure, there are clients — and they deserve huge credit. But many are maintained by just one main person. That’s fragile. Others are browser-based or optimized for mobile. Great, but not enough. Linux is the natural home for local-first, auditable, and privacy-respecting communication. Yet most Nostr clients on Linux still depend on web stacks — making them almost as exposed as traditional platforms. 👉 What we need: - Native GUI clients for Linux with current nip support - Zero telemetry by default - Optionale: local AI-based filtering (instead of relay moderation) Until then, a decentralized protocol without truly local autonomy remains vulnerable — not by design, but by missing tools. What do you think? Or maybe I’m missing something — is there already a solid native Linux client I just don’t know about? #nostr #linux #foss #privacy #opensource #selfhosted #censorshipresistance #bitcoin

Using Telegram, Discord,… or an other centralized service to discuss Bitcoin is like using fiat to discuss sound money. There, I said it. 🫠 It’s a fallacy to believe that closed, centralized platforms are the right place for sovereign conversations. #nostr #bitcoin #privacy #sovereign
