That’s true, I’ll keep it in mind :)

That’s totally understandable, I’m currently juggeling the two. I also want to add that Signal is actually trustworthy. The FBI subpoenad all info of a given user and they basically just gave the phone number and last login date, that’s it. Mental Outlaw made a video about it

You may want to check out Element. It’s privacy-respecting free and open source software. It’s also part of the fediverse. If you check your Lemmy account settings you can see a field called “Matrix”. Element also uses Matrix so you can even link it to your Lemmy account if you want to. I’ve been using it for quite some time now and it’s very usable! Discord’s voice channels are called “video rooms” in Element and are still in beta, though. You can easily activate and use them but they aren’t quite there yet. Still, worth a shot. Everything is E2EE encrypted

We don’t even have karma here, sorry :(

Lots of people actually use Lemmy, Kbin and similar platforms as alternatives to Reddit and other traditional social media. It’s great that you’re open to donating/hosting, that’s exactly the kind of person we need imo. I simply pointed out that too many people that are opposed to donating/hosting or simply don’t know the necessity of it could become problematic. Basically encouraging people to help make the Fediverse even greater. I also stated that it will probably be fine, just as Mastodon is doing fine.

I checked out your cooking content and it’s actually quite interesting! Keep up the good content :)

That is a fair point, I’ll keep that in mind going forward, thank you

We meet again :) And we even agree on this, too! Yeah, it’s madness. I know that it’s a stereo type that people don’t read TOS, T&C and privacy policies but when you have a product like Discord that is free one should realize that something’s not right.

Glad we cleared this up :) Have an awesome night!
