What the fuck happened with Supernovae?! Is this trolling? How the hell can he not see that he’s selling everyone down the damn river. Meta is not to be trusted! We all left cesspools like Facebook to escape the Zuck. Why in the mf is Supernovae even considering this much less actually doing it? Can someone please tell me he’s just trolling, please?

What does FediAct do?

Cool.

FOSS, Free and Open Source Software.

I like that! I’ve called it the Federated sites before instead of the Fediverse.

Thanks I’ll check this out.

I can’t find information at all on Fennec F-Droid because of the blackouts, could someone tell me more about Fennec F-Droid. First of all, wasn’t it a dead project? I remember it no longer being maintained. Secondly, that it tracks and reports activity in the anti features section. If this is true then should I use something else. I’m really frustrated that I can’t find this info because all I find on searches is reddit links. If anyone can shed some light that would be great! I heard a lot of good things about it and IF it’s safe I’d love to use it.

That sounds really cool. Is there an Android version?

I’ve heard of Lynx, is that a browser or an OS like Tails or Whonix?

Oh! For some reason I thought Fennec was a dead project. It was just updated 6 days ago! Cool.

Oh, I mean when I search for something it takes a long time to load. Or it takes a long time to load a website. It could be internet speed but other browsers work just fine, and I’ve tested Mull on other WiFis.

Dude, I never thought of that! And some users have already pointed out that the metaverse idea is already dead and Zuck’s company is in shambles. This is a weird time for social media isn’t it? Facebook’s company is slowly dying, Tik-Tok is getting banned (or at least in the process of it) Elon killed Twitter, and the u/spez is murdering Reddit. This is the perfect time for the Fediverse isn’t it?

Hey I just realized that there is a Fediverse community, if this is considered off topic I apologize I’d be happy to delete this. My bad.

I’d also recommend ViMusic. It is similar to SpoTube but in my opinion it’s more user friendly.

For me it’s ViMusic. I was stuck with a shitty Spotify subscription that I couldn’t afford until I found Vi. It has pretty much all the bands I like and it passed my moms rigerous examination (she listens to all of of really obscure stuff) so when her Amazon subscription ran out, I got her to start using that instead. Suck it jezzy b!

I don’t have enough money for a phone number to give to any government agency much less to Signal. My phone ran out of service months ago and no one in my family is even able to re-up theirs much less spot me the scratch to help me with mine. In a perfect world where I could afford a cell phone plan I’d probably go for both honesty. They both have access to perks that I could use. But yeah I’d choose FOSS any and every day.

Yeah you know what, nah not touching Element. I joined the biggest RPG group on the site and it was all proud boys and the most professional looking InfoSec discussion board with over 1800 people is a dead group where people spammed gore pictures. Screw that, Element is a cesspool. Simplex is the winner Ding, ding ding, ding! I’m closing up shop now, I need to wash out my eyes

I would have made a new post but I didn’t want to seem like I’m hogging the bandwidth on this group by posting so close together so I asked here. Hopefully that’s okay. You’ve all been so helpful, thank you guys.

Does anyone have any recommendations for Element chat groups to join? All I find when I DuckDuckGo it is recommended clients that use Matrix, coding stuff, or weird sounding mathematical principles. Any groups involving FOSS discussions or ttrpgs would be great!

Yeah I think I’m going to try SimpleX! It looks the most promising. Private with no identifiers (that’s quite a feat!) and pretty enough with UI that my parents can use it.
