Happy #GlobalSwitchDay

Saying it's secure feeds their scam. At least we don't pay for it like SMS.
I did not say it was secure, I actually spend a lot of time explaining to people that it is secure and they should switch to Signal. However, I will not tell them to go back to SMS for the reason aforementioned.

There is one !
I have downloaded the APK, but I think there is also a testflight for iOS -
Yup, its just called Loops, there is a download link once you log in. (On a related note why does everything keep like this picture keep calling it "Loops.video" when it is just called "Loops"? - we don't call it "Lemmy.ml", "Mastodon.social" or "Peertube.tv")
Mastodons have been extinct for millennia and don't come up in conversation often. Lemmy and Peertube aren't words at all. Loops is a pretty common word, though, so it needs something extra if you want people to know what you're talking about.

And yet it gets repeated (and upvoted) in every thread.

It is all around us. Even now, in this very room. You can see it when you look out your window or when you turn on your television. You can feel it when you go to work; when you go to church; when you pay your taxes.

Acts like a psyop to make us do nothing, so I will call it out more and you should too.

Exactly. No one pays for it because it's free

Matrix. Seems to be the hottest thing for group chats. Also what a lot of open source projects that used IRC before are switching to (or, if not switching, are providing a bridge for).

Woo! Made one of first steps of switching today!

For Mastodon, the people you follow will also need to switch. This is even harder than getting your friends to switch.
Well I switched from the birdsite to Mastodon because a) I like to shout in the void and b) see what other people are shouting into the void. Doesn't really ultimately matter who's doing the shouting. People who go to social media exclusively for news and updates are a bit strange when you really think about it. You've got to have the shout in you.
(I'm only being half facetious here)

Lol shouting in the void is a funny way to describe it. I mean... why even need the fediverse. I can shout at my mirror.

The problem is the moment there is another instance then loops.video won't even make sense as that is just the name of the instance and not the application.

But Revolt isn't federated is it? It wouldn't fit here any more than signal.

I think in recent years the lines have been blurred but I would say Matrix is more "Discord-like" because it is account-centric rather than phone-centric and is designed more around communities than 1:1 IM's to replace texting.
