  • Thanks for much detailed comment. That helped me alot and answered all of the questions from my head. Eventually, I am not a criminal or activist. Looks like its secure and private enough. At least there is some eyes as Meta, Google etc. I will mind self-hosting. Thank you again for your labor. Goodbye.



  • +Visited the AUR site of Arch about librewolf-bin. Executed commands that pinned user recommended. But there is another error.

    Used commands

    gpg --keyserver hkp://keyserver.ubuntu.com --search-keys 031F7104E932F7BD7416E7F6D2845E1305D6E801

    gpg --keyserver hkp://keyserver.ubuntu.com --search-keys 662E3CDD6FE329002D0CA5BB40339DD82B12EF16

    The error for both commands

    gpg: error searching keyserver: Connection closed in DNS

    gpg: keyserver search failed: Connection closed in DNS

    Do I have anything to do with my ISP? Or only local problem?








  • Thanks for reply! I have a Samsung phone that De-Googled %100~ (exclude some important Android depencies based on Google). I restored GMS for auth in Signal. After the auth, I uninstalled it back. There is no Youtube, no Google - Chrome, no Spotify etc. Just FOSSed and de-Googled phone. Do I still using Google Services indirect ways because of Signal? Is it possible to be another third-party sharing except phone verification?


  • There was Arch Linux option and Flatpak option for Discover to download Librewolf. But the Arch Linux option was unable to click (I think its the same problem), so I used the Flatpak one. I have downloaded some apps from Flatpak too, what are its major cons? I didn’t know about the package installers differences, but I will research for it. Thanks for important info. So, what you think about the gpg problem about DNS? Some forum says its because the Tor connection but I have nothing about it. What should I do?

    No, just cant import the keys. I tried for librewolf-bin and librewolf but it only says gpg: keyserver receive failed: DNS bla bla (I just typed it from my head but it was something like that). It gave DNS error but don’t remember it. But I fixed it by using Discover app from KDE.





  • I understood clearly what you said. Thanks for detailed text. The protocol uses end-to-end encryption, yes. But, I didn’t understand what type of information is being leaked. Do you mean e-mails, phone numbers, profile pics etc. as metadata? If I use another server or self-hosted server, can I avoid the leak. And not only matrix.org, Element uses same types of informations. Element’s permissions was a bit high in Android, Flatpak etc. I’m using Element on my GNU desktop and not on phone. No phone number, no profile pic, no e-mail; only username, server and password. Do I still give information?





  • I can say I don’t have enough experince to say anything about different distros. Its my first year and I didn’t changed OSs too much. I want to get new experiences and different types of things. And I liked that labor-needy and fully-controlable vibe of Arch. And just decided to Arch but I was worried about sths. Thanks to previous replies, I understood what I have to. Thanks. Have a good day.


  • I cannot say I’m an experienced Linux user. Too young for it. And the main reasons that why im hopping on Arch are new experiences and different feelings.The arch is “cool” thing was just a joke. I think so about the Kali thing.

    Finally, I wanted to use Arch for different OS experienced and some new, different things. I was concerned about the thing i have explained at post, but the previous comments about it made relaxed. Now, Im decided to Arch. I like its customisable, labor-needing nature. Thanks for your detailed and helping text. Have a nice day.


  • Its looking good for me. And i like its gaming performance. The main reason for changing os is new experiences. I want Arch but the quotes “Arch is easy to get broken” yk was making me worry about it. But the previous comments helped me for that mindset. Im decisive for hopping on Arch. Thanks for reply, have a nice day.


  • I mean if the OS has problems with in it chronically or not as waste of time. As i said, i love to deal with any problems for experience. And, that was joke, im not hopping to Arch for the cool tag. Just, I want new experiences and learning about Linux much more. Thanks for your reply. Have a good day.
