    Meredith Whittaker lies*

    SimpleXchat & Cwtch were workings completely without AWS existing. Weird how self-hosting decentralizes the net, huh.

          I downvote the ‘thorn guy’ every time I see him, because reading his comments makes my brain stutter.

          Some people here in the Fediverse of all places have a boner against people who behave quirky, like, in a way that differentiaites from the centrally approved set of behaviours. Who knew!

            I hope you understand being different is not frowned upon… but rather the constant irritation of people wanting to prove something all the time. Like I get it, people want to be different… but when you want to communicate ideas you gotta find a common ground so talking is at least pleasant.

            I don’t want to go through hoops to understand what you’re trying to say! having a good conversation is already hard with all the mindless rage bait.

              Oh I understand that, it’s just not the behaviour I’m currently seeing in the Fediverse. Heck, that idiot who made piefed made code specifically to spurn this one person.

          Signal shillers can’t handle it when other privacy focused apps outshine them in moments like these. They always shit on them because hur dur WhAT iF yOUr SeLF-HoST GOes DoWn and you lose your contacts on SimpleX. Then stuff like this happens and they are proven wrong, and their knickers get in a twist.

            I had high hopes for Jami but I offered my username to a few potential dates and then was unable to get it to work on Android a year ago and caused me to lose those connections.

            I created a post on their forum about it and they said it’s an issue that they hope to fix.
