none of these say anything about moving due to privacy concerns and I feel like thats a huge market here.
Tbf, the fediverse isn't private at all and holds no pretense that it is. Yeah your instance isn't selling your data or doing the creepy profile-mapping that meta does, but it's important to be aware that this is very much a public forum
Middle left.
Also, the fediverse is, in some ways, worse for privacy because of the types of information that need to be shared for federation to work.
Middle left specifically mentions reddit, I'm not here because of anything to do with reddit. I'm here because I prefer open source platforms that preserve more privacy than proprietary ones that will eventually start asking for gov't ID.
