absolute bullshit, it burns more in carbon to run those machines than it takes out, this is making shit worse at an accelerated pace

it’s time for a decentralized unionized taxi app

another thing you should never do is look into private trackers

true. I know a lot of people are in similar situations, that’s what kept me on facebook for years. I’ll just say at this point, twitter could just die any day now, starting DMing people if you haven’t already and find another way to say in touch.

Personally I prefer to just not pay for anything exept internet and torrent and stream everything for free, much cheaper, no restrictions

Matrix is hella buggy, Session part of the lokinet weird ancap crypto scheme, XMPP is god tier

Briar, now that’s a thingy

I had a conversation with a cryptographer who worked for Wickr he says none of the DoD or other government agents he knew trusted Signal 🤔 - personally I use Signal with my mom or personal friends as like the bottom tier of security, because metadata is a real thing, they don’t have to actually know what you’re talking about. Just using a phone number itself tells you most everything feds need to know if they’re really after you.

if you actually want privacy use XMPP

Yeah Right, China Survived the Great Leap Forward but a marginal decline in fertility rates will lead to absolutely chaos lol

and don’t they run this story every 3 weeks are so?

at this point, with twitter being inaccessible to non logged in user, the ‘public square’ thing is totally done,. Get off twitter now. There are alternatives.

lmao, i’ve been getting that constantly

Westerners love to fantasize about how “China is Collapsing” while their economies are in complete disarray. I’m no defender of their State Capitalist Police State, but China’s definitely doing better than the US is lmao and they certainly are in a better

Like all this shit about “demographic collapse” is complete bullshit. Isn’t it a good thing that the population of the world’s most populous country is decreasing? Doesn’t that mean more resources to go around? Wouldn’t people in China then enjoy a higher Standard of Living, Cheaper food and Housing? At the very least they’ll be in a better shape to handle the climate catastrophe we’re going into. Something the West is not even trying to address.

But yeah China is collapsing, okay.

There was a Vice Documentary that got canceled recently, apparrenlty he watched people get tortured and recommended force feeding and other fucked up things https://www.rollingstone.com/politics/politics-news/desantis-guantanamo-force-feedings-canceled-documentary-1234793826/

didn’t he torture people in gitmo?

to my knowledge this is the one instance that isn’t willing to take that stand lol, it should be understand that all instances in the federation share a common interest to protect their users against copyright trolls

that may technically be true, but I think people should be more willing to take a stand, and not just pre-emptively bow down to the copyright trolls, because it’s basically legally unenforceable especially the larger this the federation gets

I’ll give them credit that they didn’t defed the entire instance and I guess it’s their server their rules

What an absolutely cowardly move. It’s one thing to not allow piracy on your own server, that’s you’re right, but to prevent your users from accessing communities on other servers? Way to give in to copyright trolls without even being asked. I would understand even if they received some kind of Cease and Desist. It doesn’t seem like it, it seems like they’re just willing sycophants who will probably federate with Meta at first opportunity.
