I understand her point and imho that's what makes signal a superior option to the others but because of these extreme choices I've seen the usage of signal gradually go down (might be wrong for the total number of users) around me. Now I don't anyone who uses signal anymore.
it's a real shame it's ridiculous to be using whatsapp but I have whatsapp installed on my phone not signal because that's what everyone uses.
Can't even downvote their bullshit now. the amount of immature shit I read in this comment thread made me think I was on hexbear or lemmygrad. Thanks for putting things into context and being the voice of reason.
I'm gonna get downvoted for this but imho El Salvadorans were not living a life with the gangs the country was effectively in a constant state of war and violence. yes some innocents are probably incarcerated but it pales in comparison to the number of dead innocents and the constant state of fear. The measures he took were 200% justified.
I honestly do know what the Argentinians would have done. the previous government thought it was a bright idea to present the minister of the economy for the presidential election. A chihuahua would have sufficed to win. Instead a Goofy lion got in.
I mean the sentiment in the comments in that thread is not at all positive. The damage the tankies/hexbear/lemmygrad has done to the reputation of lemmy is not negligible.
imho It's important to help people stear away from those places when they join lemmy except if that is their intention.
Most of the top comments are just full of fear. People are more afraid of companies than their own government. (BTW I'm not saying he should copy the code entirely but changing a few variables and such is enough fuck that "derivative work" mentality for software).
The only "pirating" I do these days is using real debrid and I think that's the lightest pirating you can do since I since have to pay although an extremely small amount compared to a traditional streaming service.
I donate to the OSM foundation as a basic member and 6€ monthly to organic maps. I spend a lot of time contributing to OSM as well. it's great to be able to see and use my own work.
