Ditch centralized platforms.

TUCKER: “Media Matters is a censorship organization funded by George Soros and others who hate Western civilization designed to prohibit people from saying certain things.” And what they are prohibiting are the truth.

Manipulation can be stop by decentralization.

WireMin, Damus are both good choices.

Backup recovery phrase is a good way 2

True, and I have one as storage. Idk why some people say that

Why?

At the end of the day, the winner for privacy is … Decentralization Cuz no central server means:

• Data only save in your own device
• Anonymous, never link to your personal info
• E2EE

X video…

I guess the whole Threads battle making Elon realize he needs to be the data master, and X born earlier than I expected

sounds sus

For sure

Censorship are everywhere, especially big tech platforms

Twitter even censored news about french protest too.

Kept FB, Twitter away

Not being open source is pretty damaging to their user acquisition, I guess. Well it did not ask for my personal info when creating an account, so I trusted it at first.

For now I use both Mastodon and Session, and still kept WireMin on my phone because it combines them both. I look forward to the day when they finally publish their source code.

I think the reason might be related to the cost. For example, ChatGPT may not be available in Iran because in order for them to use ChatGPT, OpenAI would have to implement a server in Iran’s network, which could be costly. If only 1% of the total population in Iran would pay for GPT-4, it would be impossible to make any profit.

As you can see

Lemmy for sure! Its hard to get interaction on Mastodon

It’s a basic human right, and if you’re in a restrictive country like North Korea or China, data privacy means everything because individuals don’t know if they’re saying something wrong that could put them in danger.

A friend from college who is Chinese told me that whenever they go back to China for holidays, they have to clear out all the chat history on WeChat, a messaging app commonly used in China. This is because sometimes Chinese guards pick someone’s phone and check for any content that could be seen as critical of China.
