Yeah Mullvad or Proton I’d say are well worth the investment. I doubt it’s necessary but I use secure core on proton whenever I am doing very legal and very cool things.
So they didn’t say it’s an opinion. Cool.

No. We played “wait and see” 2016-2020. We know how this shit is going down.
He put RFK jr. and Dr. Oz at the helm of our health system get with the fucking program dude.
I just wanted to come back and apologize. I’ve been in a pretty shitty mood the last few days and I’ve been letting a lot of stuff get to me.I shouldn’t go online and take it out on other people and just spread that misery.
It doesn’t matter whether or not I think the word is flexible. I shouldn’t talk to people like that, I don’t know a thing about you and I just started attacking you. Again I apologize
You’re absolutely right. Indie is a murky term that people use very liberally. I’m glad we agree that being pedantic and rigid about a definition when the rest of society isn’t out of some weird need to be a contrarian online “well AKSHOOALEE”-ing folks is not only unproductive, but it kind of makes you a tool.
Have a great rest of your week. Feel free to have the last word. I’m sure it’s very important to you.
It’s already muddy dude I can’t believe we are having this debate in 2024 lmfao
Oh come on are you really going to play this game?
Do you think all “indie films” come from independent filmmakers/tiny studios with no big connections?
Do you think all “indie rock” only comes from independent bands without studio deals?
Indie absolutely connotes either the above or a style/genre. Everyone knows this. It’s a very flexible term that can vary from person to person. It’s a “vibe,” it’s classic “I know it when I see it.”
I can tell you firsthand that companies are lowering their ad buys on and generally pulling away from Twitter. It is not 2015. You are not going to lose your house if you lose Twitter. It is over dramatic. What I said is not dramatic. How on earth you were defending people sticking with that sinking ship is beyond me. It is a right wing mouthpiece that becomes more impossible operate safely on every week. When you block people they see your posts and can comment all over your stuff now slandering you you just can’t see it. How on earth people want to live with that is beyond me.
The sheer number of journalists and media outlets abandoning the platform is about as big of a canary in the coal mine as you’re going to get.
When it comes to legality it is not reasonable for us to ask instance admins to risk themselves over something like age requirements for NSFW content. I fully agree with this decision if you feel it is necessary to protect yourself, which seems to be the correct take.
As long as I don’t have to give personal, identifying info, I’m down.
