Problem: You have a computer running @tailscale that wants for reasons to attach to a VPN as an exit node. You are unwilling (again for reasons) to use the built-in @mullvadnet integration.

We’re making some updates to Venmo and the Venmo User Agreement effective August 24, 2026, including changes to 1) the arbitration provision in the User Agreement that will affect how claims you and Venmo have against each other are resolved; and 2) our Venmo Stash rewards program. Pray we do not alter it any further. #venmo #arbitration #paypal

Would someone who is fond of Delta Chat please sell me on the concept? I have a working Signal installation already, so comparisons to that system (favorable or unfavorable) are welcomed. As ever it is hard to evaluate social software in isolation. #signal #deltachat
