if america wasn't so stuck on SMS, the damn protocol would actually be close to dying
like cassettes
@Cole its not really that there is no alternatives its the "everyone is there/ it was first" effect
no matter how much abuse and shitty service they get
they stay cause "mah everyone else"
yeah
tho also given giving alternative smaller plantforms to our friends is on us who know more about technology
but still, _are_ there usable alternatives to facebook, instagram and ok let's kill snapchat who the fuck cares about snapchat
snapchat is darn popular hell people use it to just chat ...
Snapchat and Instagram are both stupid
with 2 lines of text and picture of floor
I use Facebook, Signal, and Discord
thousands of terabytes of floor pictures
I lurk on twitter, but never tweet personally
snapchat owned by the flooring lobby
@Cole for facebook it would be your own blog-plantform where your friends can leave messages and follow you at will without bullshit (also it would replace instagram too at same time))
yes, you're describing how an alternative could work
but does the alternative exist now
but do we suggest or support our friends doing that ? nope cause we dont want to be customer support
don't give me 'nam flashbacks about being CS for bullshit
"oh hey you know a lot about _stuff_ could you help me with _incredibly unreasonable and/or retarded request_"
and ofc ostatus/fediverse world
<:kms:327934280619655179>
i mean pump.io/mastodon/etc for microblogging, peertube and peerpx for imgur and youtueb replacement, write.as for proper blogs, etc etc etc etc
pubcast for podscasts and what not
sure throwing all those shits up for friends takes some time
and requires your friends to trust you with keys to kingdom technicaly
alternatively, come to terms with the fact that all your data has already been bought and sold, and you really aren't that interesting anyway, so just use the services everyone else is using
Autismos with 2 friends (online only) will hate this.
matthew confirmed having no idea how much current realtime and future data is worth
wait i need to find big enough camera to capture your stupidity
whelp this should be good enough
i mean
no matter how much you try to hide
some of your info is definitely out there being sold
What better way to fight the system than to inconvenience yourself and socially isolate yourself so that some faceless corporation can't buy the fact that you like pizza for $0.05
