The question on the bus reminded me of the talk stallman gave at the 31c3.

887on Supersonic: New UI Hybrid Framework – Ionic, AngularJS, Cordova

Is it just me or did anyone else stop immediatly at this sentence on the get started page? "Create a free AppGyver account"

Ionic didn't need me to create an account and everything you list in this news title i can use without an account. Ionic also begins their getting started with "Install Ionic" so the fork part was even more misleading. I immediately got disapointed.

I don't know but every time i run into an "accountwall" within the first 10 seconds i immediately turn away and loose all interest.

I also wouldn't call something where i need to give any information to evaluate it "free".

887on Email Self-Defense – a guide to fighting surveillance with GnuPG

Small Update:

You can get the latest K9 Alpha from here: https://github.com/k9mail/k-9/releases/tag/4.904

..and should use OpenKeyChain instead of APG, since its no longer maintained. http://openkeychain.org/ (also available on F-Droid)

This at least removes the need to push decrypt on every Message although thee might be Bugs.

887on Email Self-Defense – a guide to fighting surveillance with GnuPG

For Android you can use APG and K9-Mail. You will learn to love it if you have multiple accounts and 'get' the interface.

Recommended use is with Thunderbird and Enigmail on desktop, where you should also have your mail filters sorting your mail to the IMAP folders.

To install use F-Droid. F-Droid ist the Open Software Repository for Android. https://f-droid.org/

This is/feels like the recommended way to use PGP at the moment or at least the most useable.
