This isn’t an ad, I wasn’t paid for this post. Just to clear the air: fuck facebook, fuck elon musk and twitter, fuck anyone who thinks this is a paid advertisement. I wish I was paid for this shit, I just wanted to spread the word. Thank you. 😀 👍
I personally prefer apps on the matrix network! Www.Matrix.org has a list of client apps, but I’ve found Element is great on windows, steam deck, and android! Call quality and chat stability can get weird sometimes, but overall it’s very very secure and pretty feature rich! 🙂
From the little bit I researched, it’s kinda similar in the way that the fediverse works! It’s decentralized, and one account works everywhere. Good stuff!
If it’s decentralised, hosted by various unknown parties that can tamper with it as much as they like without thorough oversight, how can it be considered very secure? This is what worries me.
