I think Signal is still better that Whatsapp. But it is not the magic app that Signalbroa hype.

You can’t make an anonymous Signal account, it is one of the biggest red flags that Signal has. You need a phone number.

I can’t obviously speak for everyone, I can only speak for myself. And I hate products that advertise.

Probably a good thing. Buying on credit is a very bad way to spiral into crushing debt.

Turkish person here: Troy is not yet that popular, but it is slowly getting there. Give it another 5 years. The best example is probably Brazil’s Pix.

There is a reason every illegal operation runs on Telegram, not Signal. The security is good.

Advertisement makes me want that product even less.

Good. The Mastercard and Visa tax never made any sense. We deserve better.

Wero and iDeal seem promising.

Epstein was not just a pedo pimp. He was a power-broker and a fixer for the American and Israeli rich elites. Not everyone was in for the girls, some of them were in for the other illegal stuff.

I switched my parents to Linux more than 10 years ago. They are very happy with it.

Statcounter data has a lot of shortterm noise. Longterm trends are meaningful, but do not get too excited about short term fluctuations.

At the same time Windows has been slowly losing market share over the years.

it’s a joke dum dum

I prefer to use Linux. Arch Linux.

Tesla is a cult.

The easiest way to break E2EE is to copy your private key to Meta’s servers. It’s very easy to implement, and close to impossible to detect.

No it is not. Whatsapp gets several updates a month. How do you keep up with that rate?

WhatsApp client is closed source. Any claims around E2EE is pointless, since it’s impossible to verify.
