A place to discuss privacy and freedom in the digital world.
Privacy has become a very important issue in modern society, with companies and governments constantly abusing their power, more and more people are waking up to the importance of digital privacy.
In this community everyone is welcome to post links and discuss topics related to privacy.
Some Rules
- Posting a link to a website containing tracking isn't great, if contents of the website are behind a paywall maybe copy them into the post
- Don't promote proprietary software
- Try to keep things on topic
- If you have a question, please try searching for previous discussions, maybe it has already been answered
- Reposts are fine, but should have at least a couple of weeks in between so that the post can reach a new audience
- Be nice :)

I left my final mainstream social media with the Reddit API debacle back in 2023. And before that, I left Facebook and Twitter in 2018.
I can only say that I'm all the better after removing them all from my life. My mental health has improved dramatically since then.
Funny how involved I was on Twitter and especially Reddit prior to summer 2023, yet barely noticed when I deleted my accounts.
