  • Just quit, these platform thrive on user generated content while selling your data and now they want money from you so you continue to create content for them.

    All because they make you believe that you NEED them to stay in contact and up to date. In reality it’s much nicer to speak with friends personally, show a few pics and talk about your/their experience.

    Too often when i still used that social media crap people would just cut me off with “yeah i’ve seen that already on fb,insta etc.” and no experience shared.

    Being off social media, as weird as that sounds, made me feel more social and it’s more fun to interact with ppl again.



  • I cancelled netflix cause i was barely watching and the only reason i kept it was because we were 3 friends sharing it. We pay for 4 screens so we expect that to keep working which it didn’t. So we cancelled cause we spoke about it and nobody really watched a lot.

    In the end unfortunately for Netflix it is worth it, just look at their stock which is going up again, which means more people bought the extra subscription rather than cancelling.

    Sad times but if the majority of people don’t go against enshittification they will keep squeezing as much money out of everyone as long as it is profitable





  • I disagree with a lot of things in this message, a server will always know who communicates with whom and when, because it needs to deliver these messages.

    We know that Pegasus can infect any device without anyone really noticing and fully taking over. No message service could ever get around that meaning that as long as you use a phone you could always be the target of surveilance.

    That means there is an inheritated problem with privacy on phones because no matter what a app will never be safe.

    End to end encryption just ensures that there wont be a party constantly monitoring all data and enable mass surveilance.

    In theory they infected everyone with Pegasus send the traffic somewhere whwre they could analyze that traffic.
