Threads

It’s a valid question and I understand your point, but it becomes an issue for me when I end up being caught up the a snowball effect and need to use a bad app too. Here in Europe, WhatsApp is an example of something I’d rather not use, but because it’s the platform everyone else is on, it’s very difficult to avoid. The parallel I see is if Twitter is supplanted not by Mastodon, but by Threads, then that is the place people will gravitate towards and then the privacy friendly version becomes less useful due to lack of users and content.

Of course it is an option to just not use these apps, but the preferably outcome is that I am able to have the nice experience without sacrificing my privacy.

Not sure just mildly infuriating 😅

Also infuriating: the number of my friends who have installed this shitty app 😑

Would strongly recommend a password manager. I use bitwarden, you can use self host it or not. If you don’t like bitwarden there are plenty of free options. Random password generation and sync is going to be a better practice than much else I can think of, so I’d encourage you to go for it! 😬

+1 for duckduckgo, it removes all the built in trackers too and is built into their android app. I really like it.

Definitely posting more, i feel like on reddit it could too easily get a bit aggressive sometimes whereas, whilst people are disagreeing in comments on lemmy, it is a nicer tone. Less intimidating.

That and the volume of messages (lower) makes it feel less intimidating for me.

Which app have you been struggling with? Both Jerboa and Connect worked fine with different servers for me, I’m guessing others are fine too

Are many other servers proactively anti-lgbt?
