You like Signal for it's outstanding #confidentiality? Fine!

You like Threema, since it's safe, it's from #Switzerland, and #ElsbethSigmund as #Heidi was your #childhoodCrush? Great!

You like Whatsapp, because your friends are there? I don't blame you!

But 𝐩𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐞 don't claim, that any of those #centralServices would support #digitalAutonomy, #digitalIndependence, #digitalSovereignty. They have their merits, but they still are #walledGardens.

#instantMessaging

I am here once again asking you to switch to #decentralized solutions, the answer is never centralization

if you are going to leave #WhatsApp switch to #ArcaneChat, #DeltaChat, #XMPP, #Matrix, etc.

✊🏽 "We need to stop trying to turn private companies into something they’re not, and start building a new moral, institutional and legal order to express the values, rights and standards that we hold into the digital realm. It’s not about whether Zuckerberg is good or bad, vampire or human. It’s about getting to a place where we don’t have to care."
