does anyone know what kind of moderation 4chan has? tbh, if it didn’t attract all racists, nazis in the world, i think that kind of forum would be onto something interesting 🤔

can someone pls explain why so much importance is put into pronouns? imo it puts additional emphasis on gender when all of us could benefit a lot from deemphasizing it tbh

POV 2024:

we are now desperately trying to get people off of signal because it turned out it was privacywashing (like greenwashing, but with privacy)

hi there, i do not agree with much in this article and many tangential view points, however i want to better understand the other side of the discussion, so pls no hostility

how would you say imperialists’ intentions have manifested during the recent elections?

also what do you think about the legitimacy of the recent elections?

It really bothers me that not needing a phone number for registration is now a feature, and not a basic requirement for anything claiming to be anonymous/private…

As /u/wraptile mentioned, DDG is hardly libre software, thus it doesn’t deserve it. They basically offer privacy by policy, not privacy by design. Additionally, the very foundation, the concept of ad-based revenue model is flawed, and DDG is just a less-flawed (as compared to most other implementations) version of it.

Ideally we need to have a decentralized data base with indexed websites, that would be hosted partially on computers of every participant of this theoretical network, and those said computers would be performing the crawling.

And with DDG we have a ultra-centralized database and crawlers, hosted on the worst privacy offender in the world’s servers, and in addition to that most of the code is closed-sourced.

No thank you.

(I do use DDG as my primary search engine, and a lot of the features are really cool, but I would be happy to get as far away as possible from it as soon as a comparable libre solution emerges)
