Session has alt-right affiliations so i stay away from it. Can suggest SimpleX due to its infrastructure system but it is still a very young project

@altair222 @AnonymousEntity Hi, Could you elaborate on "Session has alt-right affiliations"? I use it with my friends and would like to know more about this.

[–] altair222@beehaw.org 1 points 2 years ago

I'm unable to find the evidence i once held on the matter. I'm going to continue trying to find it.

@altair222 My main app to use is Molly.

If I had an Edward Snowden threat model, then I would use Session regardless of politics. It's the best way to ensure that they don't know who's talking to who and the contents of the messages.

I despise how people make platforms and tools politicized. They were never meant to be. I use different apps with supposed affiliations but as long as I don't engage with those people, that's one more normal person on the platform keeping the balance.

The direction a communication service takes entirely depends on the political affiliations of their developers. Everything is political in nature, politics is merely the study of social systemic structures that humans develop.

@AnonymousEntity @altair222 so say you are a lefty, green or democrat, people should just boycott your work or stop employing you, due to that? I don't condone anything here, but that is absolutely absurd! 🤦🤡

@chiefbongo @altair222 for me, privacy and anonymity is what it is. I'll use whatever's available to obtain it. Using those services won't benefit them since it's free and open source.

@AnonymousEntity @altair222 don't get me wrong - I am a-political. This cancel culture is just becoming a thoughtless norm and people should start speaking up about it. Every human being has a right to put food on the table, no matter what. Who cares if someone is interested in wild sex parties or political affiliations, a certain religion or whatever other fancy. Nobody has a right to judge or condemn, as long as it does not affect someones professionalism at work.

a-political person who has political opinions.
