A place to discuss privacy and freedom in the digital world.
Privacy has become a very important issue in modern society, with companies and governments constantly abusing their power, more and more people are waking up to the importance of digital privacy.
In this community everyone is welcome to post links and discuss topics related to privacy.
Some Rules
- Posting a link to a website containing tracking isn't great, if contents of the website are behind a paywall maybe copy them into the post
- Don't promote proprietary software
- Try to keep things on topic
- If you have a question, please try searching for previous discussions, maybe it has already been answered
- Reposts are fine, but should have at least a couple of weeks in between so that the post can reach a new audience
- Be nice :)

This just means you wrap your signal links in a URL shortener.
A slight hassle; but all the more reason to hate the muskratt.
We should be quietly linking anyone with a need to send a signal link to a nice privacy respecting URL shortening instance somewhere that will basically delete the link in 3-7 days unless told otherwise to keep it around by the user at creation.
Heck; host your own URL shortener while you're at it.
questions, not to you specifically, but to anyone who stumbles upon this thread.
I use Shlink, you can probably host it on a little digitalocean droplet or something similar.
