I am looking to replace my phones text message client with something better. I am trying to make my phone clean, minimalist and less addicting (degoogling too). I even installed Niagara launcher, to give an idea of the kind of aesthetic I am looking for. Is there anything out there folks reccomend? Bonus points if its ethical and pro-privacy.

Wow, my account was 12ish years old too when I was banned the first time. Then I was able to access Reddit again because my partner has an old 11 yo account lol and then they banned that too, even with my VPN and a new device it was accessed from. They are shit ass. Both times I didnt do anything against the guidelines. They just didnt like my educational shit going viral because Americans arent majority fascist alt-right extremists despite popular belief. Most genuinely want basic human rights, healthcare and affordability. Duh. These rich people will eventually collapse because they are choosing to make a fake world instead of learning how to survive within the real one.

I am brand spankin' new and didn't realize mods migrated too! That's great! Only thing I wish there was, was the database wealth of information that reddit has but that takes time and humans make that possible.

He literally abuses women and likely has murdered some. He is disgusting. The fact our government has used surveillance laws and things like The Smith Act to go after leftist causes / organization and never the KKK or proud boys... says a lot about how much these entities (including the wealthy) care about equity or human rights. Never are any of the right wing extremists labeled as terrorists but the black panthers were.

I think this is really important right now that folks know there are better options to social media. Especially as we are heading into a world where a select few have control over the main ways of communication. Truthfully, we need tech literacy in all public schools so citizens learn how to be able to protect their privacy. Self ownership seems like a good way but I still think the Fediverse isn't user friendly enough for the population to have interest, yet I really hope we get to a point where it is. How can I help inform folks and how do we get tech literacy in schools as a basic foundational core class?

Just wondering what brought everyone here.

Background: I was banned from Reddit for questioning the system and feel that true leftist ideologies on Reddit are severely censored (despite being considered one of the few last leftist social media platforms). I think the left needs more tech literacy and I hope the Fediverse is the future.

So, I am wondering what made folks curious about alternative options?

She blamed Bernie Sanders for her failure and got with a dude in the Epstein files. Why would anyone trust her judgment??
