@vernissage
Vernissage is another very interesting option. It has a superb interface and communicates with Mastodon via ActivityPub

Please stop confusing Element with Matrix. Your practice is against the alternative Matrix clients such as FluffyChat, SchildiChat and Cinny, and the free software community, which is unethical, unjust and unacceptable.

And ppl will still use it, what a blinded sheep's ppl can be

glad that my devices never came and newer will come through to insta, or tiktok, or facebook...or any other deeply bad internet actor Thanks to network wide pi-hole.

NextDNS is a great solution for those not want to selfhost DNS on dedicated hardware

biggest suprise of this is that Instagagram had e2e encryption at all

I don’t understand why anybody uses anything Meta, YouTube, Twitter, Blue sky. It’s a mystery.

Curiously, gmail sort of supports end to end encryption (excluding subject lines). The steps to enable it are:

(1) Install gpg if you haven't already.
(2) Install an email client that supports GPG/PGP and IMAP
(3) Use IMAP to connect to gmail

and the really, really hard part:

(4) get your contacts to use GPG as well.

Not surprised at all. Meta and privacy rarely stay in the same sentence for long. I’m just glad the Fediverse is there as a healthier alternative.
in reply to Tuta

tbh I'm more surprised it was there in the first place
in reply to Tuta

I never trusted Meta, or specifically Instagram, to have encryption that actually protected users anyway. Companies like that protect themselves from liability, but they don't protect users.
in reply to Tuta

everyone, just use Delta Chat for encrypted private chatting, using Instagram for that was never a good idea anyways...
in reply to Tuta

I know this is a throwaway comment but I will say it anyway. Was an early adopter of FB, now I can't stand to even look at it. Never used IG, never will. No need for loops, shorts, whatever.
in reply to Tuta

not surprised tbh. every few months another privacy rollback over there. at this point you kind of have to assume they will eventually remove everything
in reply to Tuta

and people wonder why everyone's moving to Signal. this stuff is why lol
in reply to Tuta

and yet people will still use it. convenience wins every time smh
in reply to Tuta

i honestly don’t think they ever had it to begin with. Same for any of their apps.
in reply to Tuta

More enpoopification - Meta: making the internet worse since they began
in reply to Tuta

it was never end to end encrypted. They've just stopped pretending it was
in reply to Tuta

and what about the "s" after http to go to facebook ?
