@avoidthehack Hey you know what would be great, is if you wrote a user-friendly guide or an article on how to migrate from twitter to mastodon/fediverse that a non-tech savvy person could understand. It clearly seems like an issue for people to switch. I'm no expert but I know plenty of non-tech people & could help in simplifying it :)

@privacyint thats so fucked up, thank god I've literally never uploaded my face online

@bruhprivacy Yup I'm sadly still on whatsapp because my gf refuses to switch over currently

@avoidthehack Yeah I hope so I'll just be patient, I plan to really take as much control of my data when I get a new setup and buy the new pixel 7 pro(after theres graphene support). If she still hasn't changed her mind over the next few months I'll just sandbox apps like whatsapp, and I only really use it to talk to her wish me luck lol

@bruhprivacy I can completely relate to this, I'm no privacy expert but due to few great experts I've learnt the importance too. Now the hardest part is convincing my family to switch too !!
