Absolutely. as i said; baby steps :)

We’ll be more on equal grounds of opportunity if the market share is split evenly

Yeah I still think there should be websites and RSS (sorry about what happened BTW), but the top user was implying socials are useless for them. Most people have social media, but most also don’t have RSS.

I see, i’ll edit my comment, thank you

I meant to average users. You’re right that RSS is easier, but most of their target users have accounts anyway

They already have websites. And social media is much more accessible than an RSS feed

Also, didn’t alien.top do this and everybody hated it? (my memory is fuzzy though)

edit: i’m wrong, alien.top was hated because it created a bot account for each equivalent reddit user and this seems to post from the same account

I wouldn’t exactly like a bot filling communities. Arent humans posting better?

If only it were to mastodon. Though baby steps, i guess

Is it not open source? That’s a tenet for posting in the community.

Its an app that uses no user ids at all. It’s probably the most private chat app available.

I agree but it wouldn’t hurt for some of these. Though the guide is fine as i said :)

Seems like a mixed guide generally. It’s fine, just some complaints:

8-12 random characters that are easy to remember and type in when you unlock your device.

Ironic that this comes from the EFF. Passphrases are much better for this type of stuff, and diceware is practically the gold standard to generate https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diceware

Install Signal

More of a small complaint, but SimpleX is probably better if you’re aiming for as much security/privacy as possible.

However if you will, use https://molly.im/ and torbot for android.

Back up your data regularly and store that backup in a safe place to save yourself from a headache later on. If you’re storing your iPhone’s backups online, we strongly suggest enabling the optional Advanced Data Protection feature, which turns on end-to-end encryption for most of the data stored in iCloud

I don’t know too much about iCloud but i wouldn’t trust apple with anything.

Here’s some good alternatives: https://www.privacyguides.org/en/cloud

No criticism, just FYI this is called https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_bloc if you’d like to know more.

I’m pretty tired so i may have missed or written BS on top, please correct me if i am.

My operating system? Plan9.

DNT pretty much did nothing and was just a “pretty please?” from the browser.

Ironically - it made you easier to narrow down your identity lmao, doing the literal opposite of what it’s supposed to do.

Of course, my problem is just that he isn’t being transparent, and is dishonest. If he actually made the code open source, and did not get himself into controversy all time i wouldn’t mind him being a solo dev :)

Where’s the code? There’s only 9 commits to the backend and its only scaffold code. There’s not even activitypub?

Same with the app. Was this just a publicity stunt?

You’re doing the lord’s work!

Tor is crucial for me as one in these countries. Thanks OP :)

We assure you, dear consumer, we must know if you are gay to optimize our software. We pinky promise not to sell your info 🥺

Proton the corporation may suck but the software is still solid. It’s valid, just needs a disclaimer, and the user makes their choice.
