Also the blatant dismissal of absolitely basic #OpSec & #ComSec is just flabberghasting.

Only #decentralized, #OpenSource & #OpenStandards can actuall survive long-term and remain #secure.

It's the same reasons we use #PGPG/MIME & #SSH and not #X400 & #X25!

IOW: Think "How can you weaponize Signal?" and see what you csn do just holding key people in contempt...

The less #info a provider has, the less they can be forced to snitch upon customers.

"#JustUseSgnal!" is a form of dangerous "#TechPopulism" aimed at bamboozling #TechIlliterates who don't know better, abusing information asymetry to pull rank instead of investing the time and effort to *explain "how" and "why" this is indeed a good or bad idea.

The only ones that have a chance to beat that are @delta / #deltaChat but that's just #PGP/MIME #eMail in a nice UI...

  • You may now laugh at me and think my "#TinfoilHat sits too tight" but I'm shure sooner or later I'll be evidenced as correct...
Hachyderm.ioCassandrich (@dalias@hachyderm.io)@kkarhan@infosec.space @signalapp@mastodon.world @monocles@monocles.social @lauren@mastodon.laurenweinstein.org Very few systems promoted as Signal alternatives match the cryptographic privacy properties (see: ratcheting, etc.) of Signal. The claims about "located in the USA" and "Cloud Act" are all nonsense because the only threat to Signal users from this is availability (seizure and shutdown of the server infrastructure), not undetected breakage of privacy properties. There are presently no systems with superior privacy properties to Signal *and* level of functionality on par with what general public expects. There are a lot (like the XMPP stuff, *sigh*, and Matrix) that are worse in both regards. If you're happy with reduced functionality, Cwtch (and possibly some other similar Tor-based systems) or VeilidChat are stronger, but it's gonna be a while before you convince normies to use them, and in the mean time they're still going to be on insecure shit like WhatsApp, FB Messenger, Telegram, etc...

@dgoldsmith it is important to me too, but I'll not get shafted a 3rd time by #TechBros [#tumblr and #shitter destroyed that!] that weaponize a captive audience.

But I guess I'll have to wait till they too got burned again as I've been with #twitter...

After a long silence, Tumblr confirms it is still planning to join the fediverse.

> The migration is still a work in progress, as we’ve previously detailed here, but we can say for sure that it will include support for WordPress’s existing ActivityPub plugins. We hope this comes as good news.

So #Tumblr is transitioning to #WordPress in order embrace the #Fediverse (there is still no timetable on when that process will be completed).

Also, despite the popularity of #Bluesky, Tumblr has no plans to embrace the #Atmosphere & will stick with support for #ActivityPub for now.

Ironically, you can easily import your Tumblr blog into WordPress, & then cross post your content upon Tumblr. That’s what I have done.

TumblrwipAbout a year ago, WordPress CEO Matt Mullenweg mentioned that Tumblr would support the Fediverse, but there haven’t been any updates on this since then. While the Fediverse is an interesting idea, I…

@cwebber How about #Tumblr? It’s not as scaling in size, but it seems to be doing okay for now. In terms of commercial platforms , it’s probably the only other one than #Bluesky that’s still open & visibly #LGBTQ friendly, as well as to other groups, and it’s intact from what I can tell. I just recently joined as an alternative, although the style isn’t exactly my preference. At least it integrates with #Jetpack & other #fediverse & #WordPress connections, better than Facebook…

Oh my days, @epilepticrabbit just mentioned her defunct #Tumblr account and I've just logged back into mine for the first time in years.

I present to you 2010s nostalgia...
