Signal is by far much easier to get family/friends to use than Matrix or Session. Downloaded it to my parents' phones and told them this is how you contact me.

It seems like Apple will publically make the correct decision to protect privacy, but I am more worried what they do behind the scenes with their user data. The Apple TOS is a nightmare.

There's a few third-party apps, with Pixeldroid being the most popular, and their official app is in beta.

I'm pretty excited about Mullvad Browser. It basically became my go to if I am not going to be logging into anything.

 

Before the API changes Teddit was one of my favorite ways to browse Reddit. It seems like more and more that companies make changes that reduce privacy.

I think it was chosen when Firefox mobile didn't have https everywhere for the app yet. The maintainers of the list also take a while to review and update it.

Either way. This would be a win-win for the Fediverse. Allows new people to hear about it and validates Mastadon as an alternative to Twitter and Threads.

It sounds like both Partey and Tierney may stay now. Especially with Timber coming in now, Tierney could get more starts.

Appreciate the transparency. The admin team here is really going above and beyond.

I think you would be better off following hash tags. I discovered so many new follows that way.

Oh yeah. Maybe in the next update, seems pretty risky right now to turn on 2FA.

I had to do it in the mobile browser. In settings when you turn on 2FA, a button appears above the checkbox. I tapped it in my mobile browser and it opened my authenticator app.
