@gerrymcgovern nit "#digital" but "#centralized" is the keyword.

I know #people who are getting #banned on #github because they're #VibeCoding now in part or in whole.

And so, as a #target of an #ai #code #hack that as a part time #developer myself saddens me.

IF you give any of your #data to a #centralized server or #cloud #service #platform now, do not #expect it to stay untouched.

Buy a #dedicated #server from places that allow #public #torrent #trackers on them.

Stay #informed and don't let #corporate #government #censorship push you around.

I #believe that #freedom and #privacy #rights will never die if we alone keep them and ourselves #alive as best we can.

Otherwise, the #inshitification of our #world continues.

that's what I did. That's what I use. That's why I use them. Don't give up the #fight on the #account of the #needs of somebody else.

It's time to #save the #west from total collapse of our #right to #live #well into the #future as such.

Putin tried to freeze Ukraine. Instead, he sparked an energy Revolution.

Russia is bombing fossil-fueled power plants, so the country is building solar and wind.

@Yzijux what do people expect from a #Centralized, #SingleVendor & #SinglePrivided solution...

Alright, it's official, I'm moving over to Mastodon for the most part. Bluesky is only gonna get worse until it becomes the demon it was supposed to slay. I don't loath it for any specific reason, but it's ignorant to think any centralized platform safe from enshittification. I'll continue to like some stuff there and maybe comment on posts, but I won't repost anything to my timeline. I want to de-emphasize Bluesky in my life as much as possible because, excluding Newgrounds, it is the only centralized, closed source social media I still rely on. At least Newgrounds seems to be run competently and has anti-AI policies, as it should, considering it's status as a site for independent artists (*cough cough* DEVIANTART).

@divVerent The problem is that @signalapp mandates #PII like #PhoneNumbers, which is critical for said #phishing...

#Signal can spout all their "#Metadata" - #FUD all day but in the end they fall under #CloudAct and will snitch on users because if they didn't it would've been a statistical inevitability that @Mer__edith and #Moxie would've been in jail and Signal shutdown like #EncroChat was.

  • Make of that what you will, but demanding a #PhoneNumber [which is either directly ("#KYC!") or indirectly / circumstantially linked to a person should be seen as *THE BIGGEST RED FLAG for any service.
    • It's like asking for an #ID at a store not as means to "verify age" with like a #DOB & Photo on something not trivial to forge but rather demanding someone's address just to buy a beer!

@signalapp those attacks.would've not.been successful if you weren't a #proprietary, #centralized, #SingleVendor / #SingleProvider "solution" that doesn't do #SelfCustoy of all the.keys nor allows for #SelfHosting nor demands #PII like #PhoneNumbers that can be leveraged for that.

Can't #phish if one doesn't have credentials for #phishing attacks ffs!

  • Can't get #phished if noone demands, stores, process or even demands such details in the first place!

Also which #Government is that incompetent to not be able to setup their own comms?

Here is my #HotTake on this issue. I have noticed that #SocialNetworks offering #decentralization such as #blueSky through #ATProto and #NOSTR as well as #X #Twitter #Threads and #TruthSocial face greater shifts in #geopolitical #change now more so than ever before. Especially as #AgeVerification and #censorship #PayWalls goes live. Which threatens #centralized #ContentPlatforms through #identity and #coding exploits. Making #ActivityPub essential for modern #communication in #2026 effectively.
