I miss the old Twitter when I saw the stupid X animation.
Twitter X is Elon Musk’s world. Pretty soon he’ll have so much control over his platform that he can practically cron kings and manipulate outcomes to fit his personal political agenda. And don’t even get me started on his whole stupid “X the everything app bullshit.
The only everything app that has succeeded so far is WeChat in China. But it’s apparently a surveillance app for the masses by the government. Seriously, why the hell would I want to link my social media account with my bank account and even my government ID? What’s the benefit in that?
I’d rather keep the digital me disconnected to the real me.
Closed source? Cringe.

Does it even have a web version? It doesn’t seem to be available for my Linux distro of choice, jumping through hoops to install some proprietary app would make it a massive fail.

Signal is open sourced, but is it safe? No, cuz they have a cloud to keep all data. And cloud is just another computer…
You can self host it, not that I would but if you need more privacy.

Cryptographers probably would know that and would have spoken up. Because it’s open source. But sure, shill for closed source and talk shit about the reverse.
