I live in Europe, but not in a EU country. Is there anything I can contribute with?

Say the thing to the most people and the dangers associated

80s and 90s = peak humanity.

[-] InputZero@lemmy.ml 4 points 2 weeks ago

Depends on where you were in the 80s and 90s. If you were in America, the future EU, or Eastern Asia, for example, those were great times. If you were in Rwanda, Bosnia, or Afghanistan (The Soviet-Afgan war) I doubt many people call that peak humanity.

Everybody needs to switch to Simplex/Briar/Threema/Molly ASAP. I'd like to see them try and ban F-droid LMAO

Aren't all (most?) those centralized services? What good is having the app if the service is unavailable? Tox, Jamie and Veilidchat are fully decentralized, not just federated, fully decentralized. They come with their own downsides though...

[-] MigratingtoLemmy@lemmy.world 6 points 2 weeks ago

Apologies, yes Threema and Molly are centralized since they depend on proprietary servers. SimpleX and Briar are FOSS and P2P over TOR

[-] EngineerGaming@feddit.nl 4 points 2 weeks ago

Correction. Briar is true p2p, while Simplex relies on servers - but said servers can be hosted by anyone and interoperate.

british flag and EU? what?

Probably referring to the fact that the following text is in English (as opposed to German).
