Just a reminder that the community you are looking at currently is not the Privacy Guides community announced on Reddit

If you are on lemmy.ml, the Privacy Guides community can be found here: https://lemmy.ml/c/privacyguides@lemmy.one

If you are on any other Lemmy instance, search for [!privacyguides@lemmy.one](/c/privacyguides@lemmy.one) on your search page.

With Reddit's encroaching IPO and their poorly planned API changes, we need a place to keep up with privacy topics that isn't tied to an anti-privacy, centralized ~~sinking ship~~ site.

Our forum running Discourse has been a great place to discuss website changes and answer questions, but it doesn't quite provide the same experience as Reddit does for things like sharing news, so we're trying something new:

!privacyguides@lemmy.one is our new ActivityPub-enabled community for sharing links and other information from the privacy and security realm. Welcome!

We're going to be trying out posting to this community for a few months to decide if we want this to replace or coexist with the r/privacyguides subreddit, so we'll see how it goes. If you want this to succeed, stay active! Our mission is to become the most inviting and friendly place to discuss privacy and security on the fediverse 😎

Welcome, this is a great place to stay.

Superb ! In addition, other fediverse users (such as Mastodon) will be able to answer to individuals posts natively, without having to create specifically lemmy accounts, so it's even more easy to comment there ! I'm fine with the main Discourse forum, and expect it to remain still available of course.

Oh, Discourse definitely won't be going anywhere :)

In fact, I was recently made aware of this latest development...

[–] Amynoacid@lemmy.ml 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I'm here from reddit with you.

[–] CrabAndBroom@lemmy.ml 4 points 1 year ago

Also from reddit here! Hopefully this place takes off.

Hi! Let’s make this happen.

[–] victoryonion@lemmy.ml 5 points 1 year ago

Glad you all are here. Thank you.

Didn't know about this sub till after the Reddit migration but has been very useful!

[–] jonah@lemmy.ml 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Make sure you are subscribed to https://lemmy.ml/c/privacyguides@lemmy.one instead of https://lemmy.ml/c/privacyguides - it's a little confusing but there was a "Privacy Guides" community on Lemmy created by somebody far before we joined which we have nothing to do with.

I press the link and i can’t find a subscribe button :/

[–] deroverda@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

I’m registered on lemmy.ml and I still don’t understand how to subscribe to the privacyguides hosted on lemmy.one.
