No, Gam Gam must adapt.

Right. Look, I want people moving to more independent services too, but I know that sometimes you have to meet people where they are. I keep Meta accounts because sometimes I need to see family pictures or engage with some random FB group.

You can work on getting people to try things and adapt without just going "Fuck you, you do it my way or not at all."

...

I mean, it has to be satire, they even said "iMessage" instead of text, meaning the guy super obsessed with privacy still uses an iPhone...

And still clearly uses it. Because that's what the screenshot is from.

Are people taking that as an authentic conversation?

I overestimate people a lot, but I'm genuinely confused if I'm overestimating they hypothetical screenshot and people are dumb enough to be like that, or if I'm overestimating people who see it and can't tell it's an obvious joke...

It's the eternal quesion

(It's a joke m8)

The stuffing recipe is fire

Gotta keep that green bean casserole recipe safe! The world can't know the secret of a can of cream of mushroom!

what ops?

sounds like a question a fed would ask 👀

I use encryption whenever I can not so They can't see my ops, but so that the encrypted comms of people who actually do need opsec are less suspicious.

Everyone says that until mythos 0days gam gam's pacemaker

Granny doesn't run an online cocaine business.

... or does she ?

Ease of use and low maintenance just means inertia. I remember back when people wrote Tech articles saying that Windows XP was intuitive as an argument against Linux but it turns out that intuitive only ever meant it works exactly like Windows xp. Then people got smartphones and using a second type of computer interface turned out to be no big deal. And now Linux market share is growing rapidly, something we were told was never going to happen because of all sorts of reasons that apparently don't apply.

No it is that app where I get my pictures of the grand kids.

Fucking gam gam. Get with it

You're speaking like someone who doesn't have elderly relatives...

The brain's ability to adapt decreases with age, to the point where it becomes very difficult to teach an elderly person anything new, and eventually even for them to remember or be shown how to do the things they've done for years but have now forgotten. It's very frustrating for everyone involved, and expecting them to adapt is expecting them to do something they simply can not do.

we all left reddit because of the bots

I left Reddit because of the API pricing changes didn't even notice bots

Did you "not-see" what the CEO of Plerg did?

People didn't leave reddit because of the bots, lemmy was created in opposition to reddit's openly nazi ownership and leadership; as well as a way to ensure no single reddit-style platform can be dominated by a few superusers that impose far-right moderation policies and tactics in order to limit discussion and artificially reduce left-wing political discussion.

The fact Epstein's owner, Ghislaine Maxwell was a power-mod for multiple default subs tells you exactly who owns and runs reddit and that mods there aren't exactly neutral unpaid members of the community.

Poob has it for you!

Except no because that provides a false sense of security to people who don't understand how SMS works. Either you care about privacy or you dont. If you take privacy seriously you should't use sms perioid.
