2023 has been quite an year of revelation, showing the true nature of these scummy corporates. Lets learn our lesson and not jeopardize ourselves by trusting them.

Feel free to ignore it.

A step in the right direction.

As many have pointed out, it isn’t really our choice, since we have to get along and use what most people around us use.
The only solution I see is if the government mandates every messenger to use a common protocol allowing all to co-operate.

It is open source, & they are also a non-profit organization.
Here’s the source code

I think some of this instance’s admins are not onboard with the rest. Too many cooks in the kitchen.

Lesson learned.

Sorry about that, it took a while for me to understand the joke so I thought it would help to put the gist of it in the title.

Now for the actual reason, I wanted to post without a title, but lemmy doesn’t allow that, so I put that there without much thought (⁠☉⁠｡⁠☉⁠)⁠!

I use torrentgalaxy.to now. Or some search engine like solidtorrents.to, this one’s neat since it does not have any ads.

That’s a cliché. Introverts do have a small social circle that they actually trust. And if its something that the internet can help with, then we use it without hesitation.

Yes, sticks are soo exiting

I feel like the memes (or most of the content) on reddit kept recycling every 3/4 weeks. After you spend an year on reddit, only about 25% of the content will be new to you.

New fear unlocked

The decision to avoid karma was a good thing in the long term, IMO.

Yep, I feel more comfortable interacting here than on reddit, maybe it’s because of the way less toxicity here.
