Sorry, if my non-mastering of Dutch is confusing me
If I understand correctly, you see a migration from WA to Signal as a move away from #BigTech and to more freedom. I disagree strongly.
Signal is probably more secure than WA and their team is much more trustworthy.
But it's involuted in big tech. It runs on the US Amazon cloud of Jeff B., it only works (fully) with Google Android and Apple iOS, and it even forces use of phone numbers as ids. That's not freedom in my book.
Signal as an easy-to-use and probably more secure WA replacement? Sure.
But for #digitalSovereignty we should go for something really free and federated, just like the fediverse. There are various options, of course. Each with pros and cons attached.
(My personal favourite is #Jabber, which exists since 1999 and is extremely easy to use thanks to #Quicksy and its Indian cousin #Prav.)
@debacle
Wofür steht denn dieser "UseJabberDoCrime" hashtag?
Ist ein pun auf's #BKA (#Bundeskriminalamt), welches #Jabber als erste (von neun) Säulen des #Cybercrime sieht:
Keine Ahnung, ob das außer mir noch jemand lustig findet
@debacle Jabber-Server sind die "Gelben Seiten"?
Cisco-Jabber oder was?
@debacle Aber den Text kenn ich. Im Original hieß der: "Marihuana ist Einstiegsdroge!"
