I agree with the general point about supporting each other - A lot of trans people only got through those early years because someone else shared information or offered help, and I don’t think that responsibility disappears just because you pass.

That said, I’d be really careful about normalising DIY surgery. Sharing information about accessing healthcare where it’s unavailable is one thing, but procedures like orchiectomy, FFS or VFS aren’t something people should be trying to DIY. The risks are enormous, and I’d rather see us fighting for accessible, affordable, high-quality care while also supporting people who are forced into difficult situations.

Phishing actually is a core branch of hacking—specifically under Social Engineering. It’s not really like walking through an unlocked door; it’s more like a con artist dressing up as a locksmith and convincing the homeowner to hand over the keys.

Hacking applies to the entire attack surface, which includes the human element, further more there are whole phishing campaigns that are heavily automated and often deliver stealer malware, making them a full cyber attack.

This wasn’t a technical compromise of Signal itself, but phishing/social engineering is still a form of hacking.

I think the setup script that applies the config changes is documented here: https://codeberg.org/celenity/Phoenix/src/branch/dev/docs/install.md
