https://9to5mac.com/2024/07/26/without-notice-x-is-now-scraping-posts-and-interactions-to-train-its-third-rate-ai-product-grok/ Why are people still using that third-rate service known as Twitter | 00:33:45 |
 zrxcs58 | tbh the only site that has been consistently decent is the piratebay | 00:47:50 |
 Valynor | zrxcs58 the topic is privacy & security not trolling and spreading FUD | 01:02:03 |

hey whats the consensus on the conversations app? Signal seems to be more shite every day. the xmpp client? | 01:02:41 |
| zrxcs58 | In reply to @austin:tchncs.de
the xmpp client? Yeah, weird to see xmpp suggested | 01:04:23 |
| zrxcs58 | Well kinda, it's had time to age I guess | 01:04:47 |
| Austin Huang | In reply to @foxfyre:matrix.org
Yeah, weird to see xmpp suggested i can't comment on the client, it's open source though
xmpp is really just a more robust but less user-friendly matrix

xmpp is really just a more robust but less user-friendly matrix, it's not more beneficial for privacy than matrix (read: it has metadata issues by design)

| zrxcs58 | Mostly referring to this : https://divestos.org/pages/messengers | 01:05:24 |
| Austin Huang | yeah conversations is just xmpp | 01:05:34 |

| zrxcs58 | It's just odd to see conversations with such high "points" with none of the hype | 01:14:01 |
| zrxcs58 | But ya signal is slowly becoming more enshittified from what I see, like even Jonah was giving them a bit of a jab on X | 01:15:14 |
| zrxcs58 | Would be nice to kinda migrate outta it to like... maybe element fulltime, simplex, session or even conversations | 01:15:58 |
| zrxcs58 | hard part is just getting friends/family to migrate | 01:16:07 |
 Jonah (he/him) | Hey don’t tell people I’m on Twitter that’s defamatory | 01:16:39 |
| zrxcs58 | In reply to @jonah:neat.chat
Hey don’t tell people I’m on Twitter that’s defamatory Dont worry, I'll pretend I wasn't on it to see it | 01:17:00 |
| Jonah (he/him) | It’s rude to out people 😤 | 01:17:17 |
| zrxcs58 | Speaking of that, elon needs to dip out of the political stuff | 01:17:41 |
| Jonah (he/him) | But yeah Signal cringe lately | 01:17:41 |
