They were ALREADY scanning your data using AI… And banning people for simply discussing certain topics.
How do people even notice these things? I honestly couldn’t tell. (Edit: okay, I forgot about the domain)
Anyways, I’m trying to get people in specific vulnerable communities to switch to matrix. But the amount of people refusing to do so out of convenience (and even refusing to setup MFA or using different passwords for their online accounts, including discord) is staggering.
I get your point. But unfortunately the sad truth is, even IF we can convince techie nerds to switch, do you really believe we could convince the vast majority of the ignorant public? The answer is no. And even as a techie who works with computers on a daily basis, I have my reservations about Matrix. It is a slow, buggy, hot mess for the most part, and it’s even more inconvenient when it comes to voice/video chat.
What I’m learning from this is that there is NO FEASIBLE alternative to Discord, let alone one the general public would be willing to switch to. I’ve now got the task of converting my friends to Signal as a temporary half-measure before we have a reliable alternative, but things aren’t looking good.
