I think a better option should exist without breaking the older one. I remember having nightmares to find draft button back on Reddit.

I guess I couldn’t express myself. On current Lemmy I don’t see downvotes of my comments or posts.

I also tried to say that this system doesn’t allow brigade down voting to hide (censor) comments like Reddit.

Link gives 404 error. Perhaps change it to archive.org or fix?

What we need is something that is a) Private (not saying nc isn’t) b) Independent of any judicial government c) P2P and ultra redundant d) Run by a true non-profit (not like openAI) e) Massively distributed, process wise and storage wise f) OS independent, written in pure C or Rust.

You can track this globally using this service (social category selected and USA). IMHO it is doing awesome.

Unless the user made very specific choices and gave up many features, they are being “spied” at “root” level while using Android. Android is free (as in beer) and ad/private data of end users pay for it.

I use like 95% FOSS (except DRM crap), trying to contribute much as possible and I know a lot of people/projects. The question should be asked is if these fanatics donated a cent to projects /services they use?

They can charge anything of course, it is a free market. It would be nice of them to spare $3 for each purchase as a donation to users current server. A checkbox perhaps?
