It’s good to see engagement and use growing here. It would be healthy to have a social platform free of the billionaire oligopoly and the corporate ad folks, don’t you think?

I still find it quite odd that #GitHub calls itself "the place where open source communities live", and is all for #OpenSource, and yet... their own service isn't open source...
I mean, don't get me wrong, they're doing really good work (except Copilot), and we wouldn't be better off without them (if they hadn't made Copilot), but still... you gotta admit that's quite ironic!
@rstarman It is definitely their biggest flaw but as you said, the choice was for family members or your social circle so as you mentioned not a problem there. For communicating externally outside of said social circle where one doesn’t want to share any PII, Threema would be my next choice, even though there’s a few technical areas they could improve in, over all the app works great and is great for most threat models.
@rstarman To add, I get you can setup some of the other apps just as quick but they aren’t as superior (IMO) compared to Signal when it comes to the Privacy and Security combo.
@rstarman If it’s onboarding new users from your social circle, who aren’t especially tech savvy or privacy minded then Signal is the winner by a mile. You can have someone setup and talking with you over Signal in less then 5 minutes.
