Make sure to never include your face when sending nude pics. Plenty of anonymous dick pics out there.

The best take on here. The reasonable one that still highlights how much better it is compared to other mainstream services

100% this. I found it very disappointing that in order to achieve their arbitrary security policy that they sacrificed SMS fallback

I have no idea why it wasn’t just an option on setup or a configuration setting so that it defaults to encrypted messaging by default and then falls back to SMS for numbers that don’t support it (if enabled)

From their statement back in the days it always felt like they could have found a way to make this work but simply didn’t want to

A race to the bottom with who can come up with the next dogshit idea on how to ruin the internet and make things actively worse for the people who use it

When I started using Matrix I definitely thought “wtf is this”, but after 5 minutes and when I got invited to channels it all makes sense. Much prefer the privacy focused matrix

Matrix is a great discord-like experience. From my experience it’s got different channels, direct messing and a focus it seems on privacy which is nice. Compared to discord that doesn’t even support end to end encryption

Can’t even trust owls, can’t trust those blokes.
