I really hope they stand strong. We need some influential entities standing up to the shit going on.
Sadly, given the current situation in the US I have to assume that the Trump gang will sooner or later try to crack down on Signal. Who knows, forcing them to give out meta data to identify dissidents etc.At least the open-source app makes me hope that there's a little less nasty things they can do than Facebook/Whatsapp.
-
Yeah it's a bit off if we're emphasizing a switch to fediverse specifically and not better alternatives in general.
-
It's free in the US, so there's ~360 million potential users they decided to make things harder for
-
You're right. It does not fit the initial picture.
-
Okay my bad let me make another comment saying
"Signal isn't federated"
There happy?
-
You're welcome (btw, nice username)
Yeah they've tried to make it as similar as whatsapp. But it's hard convincing your entire family to switch again after signal just because you found a cool new app to switch to, lol
I know, I’m not even going to try. I can already hear the crying and gnashing of teeth.

Agreed as peertube is great the creators i enjoy to watch dont upload there
-
There is also simplex chat
-
Youtube is the only one on this list that I use and I only use it with an ad blocker.

Is Threema still a good option? Anyone know?
I use threema with family but getting others to use yet another app (especially for thin social connections) is difficult.
Depends on your threat model though, I guess.

The post says "fediverse" which by its very name implies they are all interconnected.
-
It require literally a minute, also creating an account isn't a thing people like to do.
-
SMS is so ass, I can’t even.
Then it's official. SMS is so ass, one cannot even.

PeerTube appears to be completely devoid of content
-
Based on the interaction with the app. The features are extensive. There's no ads. My data has most likely been leaked by American companies anyways, so what's the big deal?
-
You now understood both my point and the OC’s, I hope.
Signal is not federated.

I've been looking for something to track my physical book, music, and game collections. An instance of this might work nicely. Thanks!
