What? what does this even mean, is there an instance dedicated for victims of fascism or something?

That seems like a huge leap. Who knows they might just be blocking an instance that only speaks a language they don’t understand.

No, that’s sublinks which isn’t finished yet.

I heard of that, but I also like to use a third party web client like photon or tesseract too. Piefed is still new so it doesn’t have the same level of support as Lemmy does. Thunder being ported is a huge step imo and a path for more apps and clients being created or ported to it.

You’re right on that, the lemmy UI is horrible. Mbin’s UI is the only which has card posts so that’s awesome, but I just don’t see much reason (imo) to use it over lemmy or piefed. Tbf mbin’s always kinda been the weird one but i can respect its existence.

To each his own ;)

Yeah it was a poor choice of words. I just see no reason to put my forum account with my microblog account and it just feels wrong how they implemented it. It’s clear they focused on only the forum part and just kinda implemented the microblog part later.

Piefed is amazing, though the fact that there’s no apps or clients at all. They’re hard to make since there’s no API, correct me if i’m wrong though.

tl;dr:

• Lemmy for apps (shit moderation tools)

• Piefed for fast development rate, responsive dev and great features (no apps at all)

• Mbin for keeping your forum and microblog account in one place (really awkward to use)

Piefed is almost perfect, if it actually had apps then it’d probably blow all of these out the water (in my opinion, of course)

Can’t go wrong with any.

Thanks! :)

Thanks, it’s great! PS: The gitlab link doesn’t work ;)

thanks :)

You’re welcome :) (btw, nice username)

Yeah they’ve tried to make it as similar as whatsapp. But it’s hard convincing your entire family to switch again after signal just because you found a cool new app to switch to, lol

I guess so. It’s encrypted data sent over email from what i understand. Tbf i’d rather trust software built with protocols specifically built for secure and private messaging, and email is known to not be that.

Yup that’s why it seems great :) though i haven’t heard of forks. I think i’ll wait a little more till i switch to it, just to see if it gets itself in hot water. It’s too early to tell

It’s cool, thought people should still be wary of it since it’s new and backed by VC.

I’d give it a little more until i switch fully to it, but it 100% is better than WA.

Yeah it’s a shame, though i’m going to wait before switching to it to see if it gets itself into any hot water.

Interesting, thanks. I think SimpleX fixes a lot of signal’s issues, but the only problem i have that it is funded by VC and quite new.

If only there was a website that helps you choose, instead of inclining users to just use lemmy and only lemmy.world anyway. (also with mastodon and mastodon.social).

Overall i think more software choices are great but you are right in that it could repel users :/

The protocol doesn’t really matter when you send encrypted messages over it like Delta Chat

Maybe. My comment was based off of what i understood from the website

Signal is not private

Could you elaborate on this? haven’t heard of this point (is it due to the jurisdiction on a 5 eyes country?)

SimpleX doesn’t have encrypted group chats last time I tried

It actually does now. It’s a very solid choice i’d say :)

Doesn’t delta use email under the hood, an insecure protocol?

You’re better off using something like Matrix, XMPP, SimpleX or Signal.

True, i’ll take it over wa any day.

There’s also SimpleX, though it’s much less popular. (not like Signal is used everywhere though, it’s just a matter of what you switch your group to.)
