We can fight if that’s the right approach but it’s certainly not open source, just source available!

It’s not open source (just source available) so idk if it will land in F-Droid at all tbh!

That’s the easiest task for a criminal!

They used to have it on the normal Download page ages ago but they seem to only provide it to avoid a shitstorm tbh! :/

I am not sure what’s the current state of self-hosting Signal (they never had functional documentation and even held back the server code for ages to implement their shitcoin) but a good client that’s also compatible with the main server would certainly be a good base for third party servers too, possibly even without phone numbers! Is that by any chance a planned feature?

Yea, I have my issues with Lemmy too ever since the Israel/Palestina conflict got violent again so my by far favorite and most used is Mastodon, to me that feels like a supirior Microblogging site that actually dose things different and doesn’t just try to reimplement Twitter!

If they invent their own protocol it’s probably going to take another year or two before wee see a usable implementation tho, the core components of Bluesky are closed source, well and Threads should be a activity pub app too but I have my doubts if they will ever implement it tbh!

If I am not wrong decentrlization is a very old promise for that platform and not actually implemented in any way…

Centralized serives tend to have server issues once they get more popular so it’s not really a surprise the new Twitter shithole did so too!

Let’s give the Twitter guy another chance, I mean we all loved his platform sooo much before Musk, right? …

You are on Lemmy.world pal, I left that instance because it’s too neo liberal and right leaning for my taste… Are you by any chance a american because unless you post in Lemmy.ml all the time I can’t really imagine that from a european perspective! If you count the facists from Hexbear and Lemmingrad that you instance defederated from as left (which they really aren’t by the original definition of the left/right devide) it might be but I think unless you try to spill neo liberal garbage the backlash will probably be limited tbh!

Reddit is driven by search traffic and the results got a lot worse since a lot of good posters quit. They lost the content but not the users yet, I think it’s just going to take a long time before they truly see the damage in their traffic statistics!

Well, Tiktok demotes china critical accounts and promotes china friendly ones, people who tried it came to the conclusion that’s it’s roughly by the factor 10 so they aren’t even hiding it!

Everything fucked up western social media dose but time two and with a grain of chinese propaganda!

Reddit sucks but xitter and tiktok easily rub the floor with it!

We all know the BIGGEST promoter of the Fediverse but he’s certainly the biggest for Lemmy!

A friend of mine has a little farm and he used to make that himself, I like the store bough one already but there is no comparison!

Or crows, they reach roughly the same age and ravens can turn fucking 80 in captivity, not sure how long they live in the wild tho!

Good at killing if you count targets they didn’t mean to kill I guess!

Not a especially high bar!
